The line-up rotates regularly at this CBD newcomer, where decadent pastries are often Asian-inspired and lean into trends without compromising integrity. Take the flower-shaped Dubai chocolate Danish – inspired by the smash-hit chocolate bar – with flaky layers sandwiched between chocolate ganache and crisp pistachio kataifi (spun pastry). Watch the magic unfold from above at the mezzanine or nab a sun-drenched table on Exhibition Street.

Must order: Upgrade strawberry or coconut iced matcha to a “Bloom-tini”, which comes with three tiny, dunkable croissants.
