Pasticceria Pappa @ Haberfield

You only need to see the lines snaking down Haberfield's Ramsay Road and into Pasticceria Pappa to know this cafe's Italian delicacies are highly sought-after. On offer are fresh gelato, cannoli, profiteroles and biscotti. The dining room's glass cases brimming with glossy sweet treats, but Pappa's is best known for its baked ricotta cake. Diners can enjoy dessert and coffee in the cafe's old-worldly interior or in the sunny outdoor courtyard, where you can watch the locals stroll through Sydney's little Italy.
