Mietta's Review
Popular with a mixed worker, grunge, student and artist crowd, Le Gourmet has just six tables inside the small shopfront, with some window barstools and a few tables outside. Breakfasts, based around the humble egg, cater for vegetarians and the last renegade carnivores. Also on offer are crepes, croissants and muesli. Lunch is harder with a vast range of filled 20cm French sticks, pies range in flavours (steak, goulash, lentil and leek, pumpkin and ricotta to eggplant, spicy mushroom, chicken and sweetcorn) and price . Coffee is a very standard Brunswick Street. But the real reason for going to Le Gourmet is for the baked-on-the-premises sachertorte, mousse cakes, pastries (apricot, apple, sour cherry and cheese Danish) and proper baked cheesecakes, along with the less expensive lemon tarts, fresh fruit flans and pecan pies.
Or perhaps ...
