French Toasted Bacon Croissant

> French toasted bacon croissant with peanut butter parfait, salted peanuts, caramel popcorn, banana and maple syrup <

As soon as I saw this dish come out I was super excited to photograph it because the presentation was absolutely stunning! But then as I looked into the different elements I was very intrigued by the elements and flavour combinations. I don’t usually associate bacon with sweet foods, however, I cannot believe I haven’t tried this combination before because I am surprised how much I really enjoyed this! The French toasted bacon croissant was super fluffy and the balance of the moisture was spot on. The peanut butter parfait, OMG, I died over! Anything with peanut butter and my mouth will salivate at the thought. The texture was soft and melted into the croissant incredibly! The salted peanuts and caramel popcorn gave the dish a nice crunch as well as enhanced the presentation. The banana was super soft and the sweetness from it helped to combine the other elements nicely. The maple syrup topped the dish off as the sweetness level was perfect in relation to the rest of the dish. I cannot recommend this dish enough and urge you to go and try it!! It is also quite filling so you won’t be hungry anytime soon after!

Chia and Quinoa Chocolate Pudding

> Chia + quinoa chocolate pudding with freeze dries raspberries, puffed wild rice, strawberries, coconut flakes, cacao nibs and orange blossom syrup <

The presentation of this meal was very unique and really showcased what the dish had to offer. My initial thought was the flavour combination was quite and I was intrigued to see how it was going to work. To my surprise it worked really well. The first scoop I was a bit confused but then I added the orange blossom and that really boosted the moisture and flavours. The chocolate was not overpowering but the flavour was still present and boosted the dryness from the chia and quinoa. The fresh berries were perfect to add more flavour to the meal and enhanced the sweetness. It is a filling dish and will keep you energised and ready to conquer the day.

Avocado

> Avocado with pickled beets, beetroot ketchup, pomegranate, fior di latte, sunflower seeds and micro herbs on toasted sourdough <

With two very unique dishes, we had to get something more basic and simple. A smaller yet still filling dish, the smashed avo was quite perfect as well. Lightly spread avo on a thin slice of toast made for a satisfying breakfast. The pomegranates were very refreshing and added a burst of flavour to each bite. The seeds and herbs added some more texture as well as a earthier flavour overall. Hash is known for their crazy creations, especially their hot chocolate, however, they still know how to produce the basics!
