Taste Baguette
Sussex Lane, Sydney CBD
I thought this was a great find, but when I went back to Taste the second time at 12.30 I saw that a lot of other people have found it too. It can be a bit of a shit fight in their peak hour, but well worth it.
My baguette orgasm…
En-route to having my Taste baguette handed over, we always have a bit of a laugh in the process of ordering.I’m not a racist man and I’m not an ignorant man, but I obviously don’t pay much attention to faces when I am thinking about food.
Everytime I order, I lose the person I ordered with. It doesn’t help that behind the counter is a plethora of people, mostly young Asian girls. I always have to keep looking out for them to make eye contact with me before I can snatch and pay for a hasty escape to eat.
I’ve been many times, and sampled a chunk of the menu, but need to get around to the Vietnamese baguettes cause I’m sure they are their speciality.
I’m a chicken man. Call me a heathan but the Schnitzel is my favourite (so far). The rocket and honey mustard mayo on such fresh and crusty bread do it for me.
If you’re like me and have to find the next sandwich all the time you’ve got to include Taste.
The baguettes are very filling but not too much to make you regret finishing the last bites. They never skimp out on the meat and it’s a fine balance all the way through.
What else have they got?
The bakery is actually a bit on the side for the restaurant Taste. They serve a variety of baguettes (Pork Pate, Thai Sausage, Lemongrass Chicken, Roast Pork with Brie to name a few) all on amazingly fresh bread with suitable salad/sauce matched to each of the meats.
They also do sausage rolls/pies but I haven’t ventured that way just yet. Word has it they put on some “taste-e” soup in the winter too. That’s not what they call it though, they’re not as lame as I am.
