Flipper’s
Walking into any of their cheerful outlets guarantees that you’ll be greeted with the lovely smell of pancakes and a positively delectable time. They’re famous for souffle pancakes, which are possible through the use of whipped egg whites to create that cloud-like texture. The menu consists of sweet and savoury pancake options, along with hybrid pancake puddings and pies as well.
Sadaharu Aoki
When you visit Paris, you go to Pierre Herme. But when you’re in Japan, you make a beeline for Sadaharu Aoki’s patisserie and indulge in some divine macarons and eclairs. This Japanese-trained chef made his mark in Paris with French desserts that featured Japanese flavours, and the rest is history.
