‘One of our goals is to cater for those with food intolerances or special dietary needs in inspiring ways’

When two good friends tell me that they've just had the best Lemon Meringue Pie in Sydney I become like a bull to a red flag and promptly make a note in my diary as a must visit on the weekend — especially when it's also just been reviewed in the SMH Good Living. I checked their website and noticed they have a stall at Eveleigh Farmers' Market which I visited first but didn't see any on display so I assume they'd sold out. Upon arriving at the small shop labelled oneFIVEseven it was clear to see that word has passed around about this place and it's popularity was evident. The small and cute looking Lemon Meringue Pie ($4) had a lovely short pastry base with plenty of lemon curd and smooth meringue on top — I'm assuming everything in the shop is gluten free? The large version sitting in the display looked pretty impressive but I wasn't sure how easy it would have been to get home safely to share with the family. I actually prefer the balance of meringue versus lemon curd from Bacco Pasticceria which has the added delight of a crunchy outer meringue shell. The Mini Pizza ($2.50) was tasty and also reasonably priced for a quick bite on the run.

SNAPSHOT REVIEW:
PROS: Seems reasonably priced, Dairy/Gluten/Wheat/Egg/Maize free products available
CONS: Careful of the dripping lemon curd if freshly cooked, Metered street parking — BOO! Gets crowded when busy, Not relaxing to sit inside when crowded
MUST TRY: Lemon Meringue, Want to try other products
