Bakemono

Grab perfect shokupan, yuzu almond croissants and more at Bakemono Bakers. You’ll find it in a converted garage on Drewery Lane, just off Little Lonsdale in the CBD. They also do a range of Danishes, but the big hitter is the garlic bread. It’s buttery, garlicky shokupan dough filled with sweetened cream cheese. Drop in for takeaway, or pre-order by 9am for same day pick up.

International Cakes

International Cakes is a cafe in Melbourne’s Greek precinct on Lonsdale street that’s known for its assortment of Greek cakes and pastries. Things like galatuboriko, baklava, halva, loukimi, almond coconut slices, and vanilla slices. It’s not just Greek cakes either – there’s a wide assortment of other cakes here, along with a few savoury options and, of course, Greek coffee.

Le Bajo 

 

Hidden in a North Melbourne warehouse, Le Bajo Milkbar was started by one of the founders of Bali’s Potato Head Beach Club. Go for the classic crispy katsu sando for a taste of Tokyo. Or try the trending cream sando, complete with perfectly uniform slices of fresh fruit. They get pretty busy, so we suggest ordering ahead to minimise your wait time.
