For lunch, we settled at this fantastic chocolate place, Max Brennan. My colleague is a huge hot chocolate lover and so I thought this place is right up her alley.

Did you go to Sweet William down William St in Paddington too? The chilli and cinnamon truffles are to die for... I just love the photos, it make me appreciate where I live more! Actually all the shops down William St are gorgeous.

Verdict? She it!

According to her, the hot chocolate was thick, amazingly rich and decadent. And her banana crepes was heavenly.

The shops here at Paddington are so different from the city. This is like another colour of its own.

If you're into international denim labels, there's this shop called Come as You Are where you'll find stylish men's and women's labels such as Rock & Republic, True Religion and J Brand.

Otherwise the usual aussie brands such as Grab Denim, Sass & Bide, Witchery, Zimmerman, Alannah Hill can also be found here.

Just commented on the other thread Queenie! YAY!! You did check out Alannah Hill and Max Brenner at Paddington....!! Aren't they wonderful?

I LOVE THE FOOD PICS.....Darn...Hungry again, and I JUST ATE!!! ARGH!!!
I like Stinky Beancurd too, but they give me a sore throat if I overdo it.... And the Souffle is just.........HEAVEN!

You're looking great, so svelte! The Reissue is so cute with the Red Top and matching pants!!

As you can tell, the shops were all closed by the time we finished our chocolate and so I had to go back again on another day.

Fast forward 5 working days later, I checked into another hotel and rushed to meet a lovely lovely tpfer for coffee at Sheraton by the Park. This hotel was at such a great location on Elizabeth Street. And you can guess why.

I actually realise that I forgot to take pictures of our coffee! Oh well I guess you're more interested in the photos coming up next...
