.Local Fix #1.

Welcome to the first of a series of neighbourhood posts from the girls at The Weekend Fix.  So if you're ever in the hood, be sure to check out some of our local haunts.

.Little & Friday.

Down Eversleigh Rd, Belmont

Nestled away from the busy main road is the ever so popular Little & Friday.  Patrons are met by their quaint shabby chic interiors alongside a delectable selection of instagram-ready bakes & sugar creations.  Their mouth-watering treats are served on vintage plates & silverware adding to the charm & experience of this neighbourhood cafe.  Famed around town for their yummy doughnuts, I must confess I have yet to try one!

.La Tropezienne.

Off Lake Rd, Takapuna

Step through the sliding doors & we are instantly transported to its seaside namesake as we're greeted by their friendly French staff and the delicious aromas of fresh pastries & sweets.  We make it our mission to try something different every time from pain au chocolat to tarte aux myrtilles, the options are endless.  La Tropezienne is where we'd go to satisfy cravings for authentic French pastries & a good mocha.

.Scratch Bakers.

Located in City Works Depot

Scratch is our new go-to spot for a work day hunger fix.  Their generous sized pies are every bit gourmet with fillings such as rabbit, white wine & leek to confit duck and beef cheeks - oh my, yeah I'm a pie girl!  But if savouries don't tickle your fancy,  then their selection of freshly baked treats like pear frangipane tarts, medley of doughnuts or sugary churros should do the trick.

Till next time,
