After the Night Noodle Markets, the remaining six of us Foodies strolled down to Sofitel Wentworth for a Sugar Hit.

Sugar Hit_ Sofitel Wentworth - chocolate tasting plate

Tasting plate of white chocolate crème brulee, Valrhona bitter chocolate parfait and praline and a berry & milk chocolate terrine.

The table was split in two when we voted upon the best of the three. It was the creme brulee versus the berry and milk chocolate terrine. To my disappointment, the stickiness and softness of the brulee's caramelised sugar, and the "sweating" terrine proved that the desserts had been prepared in advance. Nonetheless, I found it much more enjoyable than the Sugar Hit at Westin.

The tasting plate featured a garnish of one of the hairiest raspberries!

Sugar Hit_ Sofitel Wentworth - brown brothers Botrytis Reisling

Brown Brothers - Botrytis Reisling... had a more concentrated character, and wasn't as sweet or fruity as the Moscato.

Interior of Sofitel Wentworth, Sydney

I love the interior of hotels... high ceilings, marble walls, fancy chandeliers... ahhh... the pleasures.

I, too, was gonna comment on the raspberry. Awesome detail! The Sony Cybershot is pretty poor when it comes to macro.
