Comments on: Pasticceria Papa, Haberfield & The Famous Ricotta Cheesecake http://www.notquitenigella.com/2009/08/20/pasticceria-papa-haberfield-the-famous-ricotta-cheesecake/ The slightly eccentric eating, cooking and travel adventures of a Sydney girl who loves cakes, cooking, Nigella Lawson and eating. She eats, breathes and dreams food and indeed will never get cable TV as she'd quit working and watch the Food Channel all day long.

Since we have moved from Sydney to near Byron I have not found any place that can compare - not even in Brisbane or last year when I went to Melbourne!! My son will be bringing up 2 cheesecakes when he comes up for Christmas - we can't wait!!!! God, how I miss the ricotta cheesecake and the canoli.

The line was a mile long snaking out the door!!! Thankfully they had plenty of cakes and it was divine. Our friends loved it too! I have to go back and try their other stuff although I see myself going back to the Ricotta cake. As promised, went to Papa’s over the weekend and got me a Ricotta cake.

The service was always a bit of a joke but I think that is part of the appeal. We used to go to Sulfaro's alot but they have changed hands now, so not sure about the quality etc. Favourite cheese cake is the Nigella Lawson recipe for London Cheesecake. it has become a family favourite.
