New Zealand celebrity baker and cookbook author Dean Brettschneider has fired up permanent ovens at a bakery-cum-café corner space in the residential enclave of Hillcrest. An all-around glass frontage protects a long communal wooden table, peek-in kitchen space, and slate-tiled counters encasing sweet and savoury breads, tarts and pastries. No more travelling to Shanghai for the 100 per cent German rye Volkorn loaf ($10.50) or the signature 18-hourproofed nutty and tangy sourdough pain au levain ($9.30); the sweet-toothed can indulge in a lemon tart ($6.90 per slice). Breakfast, brunch and wines are served all day.
Breads $4.90-$16.
