Design lovers, typography geeks and the bread-devoted unite!
One's visual dreams are realised at the newly opened Baker D Chirico, which combines effortless style with the humble breakfast staple. The charming establishment sits quietly on Faraday St, with rows of freshly baked loafs perched on its polished wooden shelves... And while it might be new in the neighbourhood, it has quickly gained quite the following.
From what I've heard, the same wooden shelves are empty by mid-afternoon; with queues for its famous hot cross buns stretching towards the roadside. Nothing quite like a queue to pique my interest :-)
Here, a wide variety of buttery pastries and bread are placed on display, and stepping into their tiny shopfront
makes me feel like a grown up version of a kid in a candy store.

I discovered this place a couple of days ago while taking an evening stroll; and couldn't resist taking home a loaf as well. Yum! And, let's not forget their sublime packaging - baked goods are wrapped in check-printed paper and placed in nondescript paper bags...it is this subtle elegance and clean aesthetic that, when paired with a great product, makes Baker D Chirico a force to be reckoned with. I got the raisin and citrus loaf, which has slivers of orange peel and plump raisins baked within. It's dense yet soft and slightly rustic, and goes well with hot tea in the morning.
I'm already planning to pop in again over the weekend to get my hands on some pastries!
