So tired. Late night delayed flight into Sydney = sleep deprived. I got in when I should have been asleep for over several hours so I was wired.
Late night chilling in McDonald's, Sydney, Australia:
 |
| Coffee, apple pie, garden salad
(I can't
believe I'm in McDonald's. At least the booth is comfy and there's a ton
of fellow airport stragglers. Ugh. Can't leave until dawn. I really
don't know if I can stay awake for that long. On a brighter note,
there's free wi-fi and the apple pie tastes like the same ones I had way
back then! Except the pastry here is less flakey and soft and more
fried.)

 |
| Milk lingonberry chocolate |
Snack from 7-11, Glebe, Sydney, Australia:
 |
| Krispy Kreme glazed donut, black coffee |
Snack:
 |
| Dark blueberry chocolate |
Snack from Le Petit Tarte Cafe, Glebe, Sydney, Australia:
 |
| Soy cappuccino |
Soy cappuccino
The guy here is so nice! And he gets a lot of regulars because I saw five people come in while I was deciding and he automatically labelled several cups of coffee with their specific orders.
Snack from La Banette Bakery, Glebe, Sydney, Australia:
 |
| Custard muffin |
Custard muffin
The lady gave this to me for free! Can't believe this would have been $3. Nothing really special though.

Almond croissant (ate a corner)
(Strangest
almond croissant ever. It's covered in a thin layer of cake and has a
custard-esque filling as opposed to marzipan. I don't know how I feel
about it, but I prefer my traditional almond croissants.) |
 |
| Prune & raisin bread (broke off a piece) |
Pretty good! Slightly over-baked, but I like the bitter baked plum and sweet raisin contrast. The texture is also spot-on, with a crusty, crisp exterior and soft, chewy interior. I think I like this bakery's bread a lot better than their pastries.
Snack (bought from a supermarket):
 |
"Summer roll": raw salmon w/avocado, carrots, cucumbers & mixed greens wrapped in rice paper (ate four)
(Like
a sashimi salad. Yum. Ate this at a local park because I felt like
having a picnic. But then the kids started throwing pieces of bread
closer to where I sat and I freaked out. I hate how many birds there are
here!!! NOT MY IDEA OF FUN.)
|
Snack:
 |
| Finished the rest of the almond croissant
(Yeah, I'm not a big fan of the cake/shortbread layer on top or custard-esque filling.)
