Maldini's Espresso - Chatswood

Super excited when a colleague tip me off that you can get the Papa's ricotta cheesecake here at Maldini's. It's hard know that the cafe even exist given it's tucked in off the street, literally next to the elevator to the concourse medical centre. Had a skim cap to go with the cheesecake. Not sure how "fresh" the cheesecake was, it was a bit dry, like it's been in the fridge for a bit. The coffee was a darker brew & strong, which went well with a sweet dessert.

Cafe is rather hidden indoors without a prominent street sign so it would be easy to miss unless you either knew about it or were visiting the nearby medical centre. There is a limited food menu in-store but they offer a large variety of drinks. Tried their green tea latte ($4), which had a strong green tea flavour but was a bit too sweet (even for my sweet tooth).

Great location but they burnt my coffee. The beans were also too sour for my liking so would not return for the coffee. But nice spot for a catch-up and there is a good array of pastries from Papa's Patisserie.

Right underneath The Concourse in Chatswood, Maldini's is a Korean coffee chain. They make a great iced mocha and always pop by when I walk past just for it (and occasionally some Pasticceria Papa cheesecake; yum!)
