This One Thing: Earth Angels’ Nutri-Grain Tart Is Back

Confession. I’ve had to ban myself from buying cereal. If there’s a box in my vicinity, I will finish it in its entirety in one sitting. I’m also a big fan of US bakery chain Milk Bar founder and Chef’s Table subject Christina Tosi ’s cereal milk , a creation that involves steeping corn flakes in milk to infuse it with a flavour reminiscent of that found in the milk at the end of a bowl of cereal.

So you can imagine my delight when I saw a Nutri-Grain tart on the menu at West Melbourne wine bar and restaurant Earth Angels.

The venue changes its menu daily, but head chef Narit Kimsat (ex- La Pinta) is bringing back the tart on Friday September 13.

Here are all the details.

What: A slice of Nutri-Grain tart made using an entire 765-gram value pack of the cereal, served with house-made Jersey milk gelato.
How: Making the tart is a two-day process. On the first day, the cereal is steeped in milk and cream. On the second day, the infused dairy is used to make custard that is poured into a tart shell made from crushed Nutri-Grain and graham crackers.
Price: $16
Where: Earth Angels, West Melbourne.
