163 Lygon Street, Brunswick
On this particular occasion a friend and I indulged in some afternoon tea and sweets...
If you're looking for food decadence then you've definitely come to the right place with Sugardough. They describe themselves as a panificio and patisserie...It is full of delights from bomboloni, cornetti, muffins, cupcakes, brownies, cookies, biscotti, slices...oh and the list goes on.
The thing that really takes the cake, and probably attribute to an onset of early diabetes is the RIDICULOUSLY rich Italian hot chocolate. Think chocolate Yogo that's been melted into a cup and you're heading in the right direction...Sweet things is just one half of what they do. There's of course the savoury side too with pies, sausage rolls, tarts, pizzas, soups and a range of breakfast items as well.

| Vanilla cupcake (1) |
Quite small was this vanilla treat yet so sweet and fluffy it was. The icing so delicate and soft it just melted in your mouth...

Warning: staring at large photo of the close up of vanilla cupcake may cause some serious jealousy and possible tongue on screen action.

| Earl grey to wash the cupcake down |
I love a cup of Earl Grey tea...probably been programmed into me from watching all those episodes of Star Trek: The Next Generation...damn you Patrick Stewart!

| Half of a chocolate brownie |
This chocolate brownie may look quite dense but it is still quite easy to cut through with a lovely soft chewy centre. It's packed with chocolate goodness that may just make you feel sickly after a while.

My friend couldn't get through her half so she decided to have it "take away" and save it for later...when she wasn't looking I kindly relieved her of it...you would've done the same! :-P
If you're on Lygon street and you feel like something sweet, there's no reason for you not to visit this place. It's a charming little place with a outdoor section in the back and it's fairly reasonably priced, however some items I do raise my eyebrows to considering the size of things...but that's just my Asian "value for money" stinginess creeping out...
Anyway, to misquote Justin Timberlake, Sugardough is bringing Diabetes back (but in a good way...)
(>_<)
