Who doesn't love a baked good?

This week's Good Living in SMH has proven to be a really good read  As much as I enjoy 'hatted' restaurant dining, I also appreciate the simple things in life... like a good sausage roll. There are some things that just make life better by being in it and puff pastry is one of them. Anything is improved if it's enveloped in golden, flaky, buttery puff pastry.

The Top 3 places to find the best sausage rolls as follows:

BERRY SOURDOUGH

Like me you may be fooled into assuming the list would be Sydney metropolitan centric but when Berry Sourdough was at the top of the list, it took me a second to realise we weren't talking blue, black or even straw but the actual town of Berry, about 2 hours drive south west of Sydney.

I can't very well miss out on an almost perfect sausage roll and fabulous sourdough (mmm sourdough) combo.

SUMMER HILL VILLAGE PATISSERIE

Much closer to the city lights is the Summer Hill Village Patisserie. There is a pastry chef called Juan, you just know there's going to be no skimping on the buttery goodness of the puff.

Junior will undoubtedly be able to find a tasty sweet morsel to follow the sausage rolls.

BOURKE STREET BAKERY

Now the Marrickville operation is the centre piece of the sausage roll showcase. With classic options on offer, there is also Lamb & Harissa or Beef, Veal & Olive, to tempt the sausage roll lovers who want try more gourmet interpretations.

A local opportunity for a top quality sausage roll and sourdough (mmm sourdough) combo.
