Halleluljah!
At last Knead Patisserie is finally getting recognized for the coffee.

Yes, the rustic(a) rye bread is my bread of choice (it is brilliant fresh, toasted and stale), yes the creme brulee tarts are worth selling your soul for and yes the staff behave as if you are their best friend. However what drags me in there time after time is the coffee. Coffee in hand I stroll around the markets planning what to cook from all the fabulous produce on offer.
Now Tom and Crystal are moving on to live back in Canada, Crystal's home country. I believe the recipes have been passed on and the staff will all be retained. I for one will make sure I fill up on my share of coffee, tarts, bagels, baguettes, sausage rolls, pies and more coffee before the dynamic duo disappear, just in case the unthinkable happens. It took so long for Belconnen Markets to have a place as brilliant as this. Let's hope the new owners have the respect for Tom and Crystal's legacy. Only time will tell!
Bon voyage guys, Canberra's loss, Canada's gain.
AN UPDATE: So far so good! Thankfully my favourite Canberra barista is still there and everything remains the same. I did have a superior gingerbread macaron around Xmas time.
