      Unfortunately, the right bite bakery, I was unable to get pictures of my visit because I left my phone in the car and was not anticipating coming across this stall at Lansdowne market. The small inconspicuous bakery is part of at least the holiday and I believe regular market at Lansdowne. 

    The overall look of the tart is appealing. They offer a few varieties, but the basic tart I have to say is very good. The crust is very light and flaky without seeming dense. The center is not a gooey center, but more of a custard and is very quite tasty. But a flavor is rich with a noticeable top baked on. The flakiness of the crust, the custardy and buttery taste make for a really delicious bite. 


    The crust is more of a chewy crust noticeable in the bite, but less of a crunch and more of a soft slightly chewy nature to it. Sticky also to the touch on top. This charge was worth your time and the price point was perfect for a quick snack. Definitely a good one to nab if you were in the Ottawa Lansdowne Park area. This is definitely a good higher end quality, price, efficient, very solid butter tart. I highly recommend.

The Sweet Oven: Barrie, Ontario (9.72)

THE SWEET OVEN 9.72 / 10  Maple Leaves 90 Park Pl Blvd #2, Barrie, ON L4N 6P8, Canada https://thesweetoven.com/ Presentation:10 Flavor: 10 Texture: 9.75          Center: 10 Crust: 8.5 Bite 9.75 Happiness "yum" Factor: 10   Though I’m not new to butter tarts, I started this adventure at the request of a friend of mine at The Sweet Oven in Barrie Ontario. A bit appropriate because according to my friend Barrie is the home of the Canadian butter tart. Though Deepak IS a native to the area and perhaps this is local lore (he is a great guy tho). So, in short, it better be good.  The Sweet Oven offers two basic tart experiences; the less runny or the more runny. For my first review here I chose the latter. Though I hate to start with a banger right off out of the gate based on my previous experiences in several provinces this may have already topped the charts. If anything changes I’ll be sure to come back and note the update the folks we started w...

ANNINA'S BAKE SHOP 8.32 / 10 Maple Leaves 300 Durham Regional Hwy 47, Goodwood, ON L0C 1A0, Canada https://www.anninasbakeshop.com/   Presentation: 8.5 Flavor: 8 Texture: 8.5    Center: 7.5 Crust: 7.5 Bite: 9.5 Happiness "yum" Factor: 8.75 For lovers of the show Schitts Creek, this is a must do. Settled right in the center of three of the show's landmarks; Annina's actually served as the catering for the production team during filming. During covid the show's stars promoted and kept alive the shop though their glowing endorsements. Though butter tarts are a focus, the shop offers a variety of baked goods and small home made food choices. Annina’s butter tarts, at first look, are a little bit larger than your average butter tart; not as large as some of them come but a little bit more than the two or three biter that you normally expect. Biting in you immediately noticed the thickness of the crust, which actually looks thicker from the outside due to the sligh...

From the onset upon entering it fits the bill, there is a full section and very wide variety of butter tarts for those who like an assortment of flavors and textures. This place for certain goes through a decent amount of tarts daily. Are they the best in Ottawa ... they ate not, sorry. The first thing you noticed with Frank’s is the unique crust. More of a folded pastry molded into a cup than your traditional thumbprint style tart. It does add points the crust that is complimented by the good bite and the taste. It’s not bad. It’s just a bit different and more of a crust Than pastry. The center is kind of average in terms of consistency in flavor. It was OK ... consistency is a little more gooey t...
