Strudel pastry with crunch
After a bit of a disappointing strudel pastry from Strudel Baron I was determined to revisit the Gelato Bar in Bondi Beach. To make things closer to home I discovered the same strudels being sold in Westfield Bondi Junction at Gelato Bar Bondi. Apparently the shop here is owned by the original owners of the Gelato Bar and both places get their strudels and cakes from the same bakery which I believe is located somewhere in Bondi. The Cheese Cherry Strudel ($5.80) had good flavour and the crunchy caramelised pastry I favourably remembered from my childhood for many years. The Apple Strudel ($5.50) filling wasn't as good as hoped but the Chocolate Hazelnut Strudel ($5.50) was definitely worth trying. Nice balance of chocolate and hazelnut flavours and the signature crunchy pastry. Slices may look small but are quite filling so you could easily share one between two.
SNAPSHOT REVIEW:
PROS: Good strudel, Plenty of cakes choices, Handy location in Westfield with free parking
CONS: The pastry is super crunchy so particularly messy when cutting, Possibly rich in sugar but I guess that's what makes it tastes so good
MUST TRY: Cheese Cherry Strudel
