For a slice of Paris in the heart of Darlinghurst, locals take to Café Claudine on Victoria Street. With French bistro chairs streetside for guests to catch warm rays and a calming, pastel interior ambiance of couches and wooden tables, take a seat with an Adore coffee in hand and relax with a book from the customer collection. Linger over breakfast as light streams through floor to ceiling windows dressed with drapes, and choose from a menu boasting bold flavours and creative classics, such as Benedict baked eggs, or corn fritters with radish, bacon and avocado. Midday tempters include smoked trout salad with horseradish cream, or on chillier days slip a spoon into a thick, creamy bowl of pumpkin soup. Don’t forget to try a decadent treat such as the Malteser cake with caramel and cream.
