The last time I dined at A Bite to Eat at the Chifley shops was during my pre-blogging days. I remember ordering a home made jam doughnut that was served warm and straight out of the fryer. I must admit it has been a long time since I’ve been back and the cafe is much […] Read more…

Introducing the Duffin
There’s the cronut, and now there’s the duffin. A half donut half muffin. The duffin is filled with Nutella chocolate and dusted with icing sugar.
