Three Mills Bakery has its range of breads and pastries in some supermarkets (Ainslie IGA), cafes across Canberra, and at the farmers market. Covidlife has meant a shift in the business operating models of all in the hospitality industry. One change that I’m really pleased about, and hope stays after this is all over, is […] Read more…

Hot Cross Buns
This year, I tried hot cross buns from three bakeries – Danny’s Bakery (my favourite), Three Mills Bakery, and Sonoma. Danny’s Bakery Danny’s in Narrabundah has been around for years and since having my first taste back in 2014, this is my favourite hot cross bun in Canberra so far. These are the only sourdough […] Read more…

But it’s Wildflour’s croissant and doughnut stand that […] Read more…

I’m greeted by the waiter (who I recognise from somewhere – probably another Italian dining establishment in […] Read more…
