A pastry magician

Bonjour Patisserie
Where:876 Brunswick Street New Farm QLD 4005
Treat: Lemon Meringue Pie

This place makes it worth while being gluten free. The pastry chef here is an absolute magician with Gluten Free pastry. They have everything from mini cupcakes to chocolate eclairs to lemon meringue pie to the best gluten free pies I've ever tasted. They also have a pretty impressive selection of full size cakes that I've converted my last two workplaces to for birthday cakes.

If you have the slightest sweet tooth you simply must visit this place. The cabinets are just full of gluten free delights, so much so that they mark the non gluten free items with a gold star.

The only thing I could say against them is they have so many things I can never choose. At Christmas time there is a special treat they do a Bûche de Noël. I had one for Christmas a couple of years ago and it was divine.

Powerhouse Farmers Markets - Filled with Gluten Free delights

Powerhouse Farmer's Markets

Address: 119 Lamington Street, New Farm QLD 4005

When: 2nd and 4th Saturday of the Month (6am - 12noon)

We took a trip to the Powerhouse markets this morning and here are a couple of the places that cater for the gluten free diets. There are lots of other great places (including gluten free sausages on a stick) but here's a sample.

Monsieur Macaron

These guys have some great treats. Macarons of course but creme brûlée as well. The lavender macarons are fantastic but it's a close race for first place for the coconut one. I think I could quite easily eat a 20 piece box. This is the small selection we managed to limit ourselves to this morning

Mudgeeraba Spices

It's hard to believe how many different dishes these guys have on offer. All frozen and all gluten free.

• Butter Chicken
• South Indian lamb
• South Indian Lamb Korma
• Beef Vindaloo
• Chicken Tikka Masala
• Madras Lamb
• Pork Chittagong
• Beef Rendang
• Agra Lamb
• Sri Lanka Beef
• South Indian Chicken & Veg
• South Indian Vegetable
• Lamb & Cashew
• Roghan Josh

I've only had a few of the pre-made curries but every one has been fantastic. They are also pretty quick and easy to reheat and eat. Not something that is too easy to find with delicious indian flavours and gluten free
