La Vigne Bakery

La Vigne is a bakery on the Korean side of Eastwood. I come here regularly as they have a great selection of baked goods to try and the breads and cakes are quite nice. I absolutely love their sweet potato cake and breads with mochi in them. Drinks here are also pretty decent, a nice little hangout spot after lunch or dinner in Eastwood. I have also just recently found that they have extra seating behind the cafe.. which is so silly of me as I have regularly gone to this bakery for years! I recently tried their Mango Cheesecake Bingsoo which ended up being surprisingly good, the cheesecake pieces make it have great taste and texture. My only main criticism is that the staff are sometimes a little rude. This is a little saddening as I've had friends prefer to go to other similar cafes only due to their service. Despite this, I still like coming to La Vigne and I'll always be back for their breads or an emergency last minute birthday cake!

Decided to check out some local shops, La Vigne looked like a good target. The sliding door opened to a small Korean bakery, surprisingly there was no bread aroma. Staff were Korean but too bad I could only speak English. Not much to say about service. I ordered a matcha latte to see if there are any good joints other than café Cre Asion but once again I was let down. The matcha latte was like poured straight from a packet, very sweet, and lacked the texture and flavour of a real matcha latte. Sweet potato cake, a Korean specialty, was slightly heavier than the bakery across the road, Pishon, but it had unique flavour that I couldn’t make out. I decided to return for coffee after a couple of weeks and it was solid. Best coffee on the Korean side of Eastwood. Whenever I need an energy boost, I will come for coffee before I head off to class.

I tried there pizza (expensive and while I was expecting more topping on it,it did feel heavy) and custard toast (literally what it sounds like) and the red bean custard bun (like the softness of the bun and had plenty of red bean in it) They are all nice but at the same time I could get the same quality for cheaper elsewhere

Seus pães são bastante médios, mas alguns de seus bolos são incríveis. Um destaque é o seu bolo de batata doce, que é de longe o melhor que eu já tive em qualquer lugar (incluindo a Coréia). Cheesecake de mirtilo é muito bom também.

Their breads are quite average but some of their cakes are amazing. A standout is their sweet potato cake, which is by far the best I've had anywhere (including Korea). Blueberry cheesecake is pretty good too.
