Having tried out quite a few within Brisbane, there can be no question that Flour and Chocolate are one of the best in the business. With their little store on Morningside, I try to stop by every time I'm in the area, which unfortunately isn't that often. Fortunately for Adam, they opened up a second and far more bigger store at Northgate, a quick 15 minute train ride from his place, a grueling 2 hour trek from mine. But he was super keen and wanted to support the owners, so we went on opening day.

Since moving over to the northside, I have not got the opportunity to return to the Morningside branch as it was relatively further away. This time, their shop is way bigger and you do not need to worry about parking at all, as they have parking on site. It is also a cafe based, if you want to enjoy some drinks and pastries on site. That day, my aim was to try some goodies and bring them back home.

Flour Chocolate Patisserie has a modern, white-dominated building, but gives off cozy vibes with all the hanging flowers on the outside.It was quite crowded when I came, so I decided to get a large Pistachio Eclair for takeaway. The cream was perfect, not too sweet yet refreshing; melting nicely as soon as it enters the mouth. The pistachio is not overwhelming either. It was a perfect balance between the pastry, cream, and nuts. Moreover, despite the crowdedness, I was served relatively quick, but that was because the staff rushed me to order. During my short visit, I also saw heaps of other pastry including croissants, individual cake slices, cupcakes, and many more. I would love to come back and enjoy other menus in the future, possibly during less busy hours!

Seems after 10am is a good time for less busy. I'll be remembering my Vanilla slice for the rest of the day, and in a good way. Lemon meringue is way above average in taste and texture.
