On a Roll Bakery, University of Queensland, St Lucia
Today I went to On a Roll Bakery for my usual bacon and cheese sausage roll. Unfortunately they were fresh out of them, so I went to my new fall back option, U-Sushi. More unfortunately, they were closed. I was starting to despair about what I was going to have on my break at work, so I went back to On a Roll. The chocolate croissants looked appetising because I thought that they might not be too sweet like other patisseries, cakes, etc. Anyway, I ordered a chocolate croissant. At this point, I'd like to indicate that I believe chocolate croissants (or any croissant for that matter) should be served warm. On a Roll are capable of such service, but I wasn't even asked if I wanted it heated up. This was really a non-issue however, as I wasn't going to eat it straight away, and I have access to a microwave at work. But it was just something I noticed. So when my break came I was looking forward to it. As I placed it in the microwave I observed that it was on the small side. When I finally got round to eating it, I was impressed. I was expecting it to be at least decent, but it was really above average, especially for a croissant from a typically Australian bakery. There's really not much I can say about it other than the fact that they pastry was very good in terms of both taste and texture and the chocolate filling was smooth and tasty. However, if it were a little larger, I would have been all that more impressed.
