Just like Keeping up with the Kardashians, I'm keeping up with Boo_e's breakfast piece. So after a big night celebrating a friend's bday, Kim, Kourtney and Khloe, along with their b-boys James-Z and T-Unit needed to grab a bite at somewhere chic before heading out to the Glebe festival.
What better place than Newtown where these sisters learnt to walk down the jagged street of the King to find good food lacking at Sydney Uni. While we love Thai-La-Ong and Newtown Thai, they just didn't fit the bill for a hot and filling big breakfast. T-Unit had read all about it and driven past many times so it was time to indulge at Luxe bakery.
It's a small bakery and cafe with seating for about 30, including big communal tables. The natural light beaming from the the bakery's shop front, back door and the high ceilings add to the fuzzy-warm-sunday-morning-brekkie feeling.
Don't know what happened to James-Z. Did he not put a ring on it and was now in the dog house because I can't explain his lack of appetite this particular morning: one ham and cheese croissant. The croissant he says was fo-sizzlely good but the filling was average.

We know how Beyonce got her bootylicious body so we followed suit and ordered the organic, free-range scrambled/poached eggs with choice of white, rye and soy linseed sourdough with sides of hash browns, sausage, ricotta, salsa verde (extra $3 each) and ocean trout (extra $5). Fans of smoked salmon won't be disappointed with the cured ocean trout. Beware those who have nut allergies because the sausage contains pinenuts. The hash browns got me crazy in love- crunchy and crispy with loads of yummy soft potato inside. 10x better than MaccyDs.

| Poached eggs with soy linseed sourdough and salsa verde $13.50 |

Breakfast is served from 8am-2pm and lunch from 11am-3pm. Being breakfast, of course someone had to order coffee but it felt a bit criminal seeing as Campos was just next door. T-Unit was happy with his flat white but Campos is still his number one. Us girls chose from their big range of fruit drinks in the fridge but were kicking ourselves after seeing another table get freshly squeezed juice.
You don't have to sit down and eat here. Many customers come here for the freshly baked goodies. We would have bought soemthing to take home as well but there would be plenty of food awaiting in Glebe.
Luxe bakery is a very trendy and friendly eatery where I have to come back and choose from their baked selections.
