In need of a little pick-me-up this morning?

There’s nothing like a shot of sugar to help you face the working week and if you’re in the mood for a particularly popular seasonal treat, then make a beeline for the South Mall this morning.

Chef Ali Honour has brought her famous cinnamon buns to The Imperial Hotel, where you can get ’em while they’re warm at the counter in Lafayette’s every morning.

The CBs were much adored at Ali’s Paul Street spot Ali’s Kitchen, with fans lamenting the loss of the beatified bun after the restaurant closed during the summer.

Now the hotel’s new Executive Chef, known for her comfort food creations, has ensured the beautiful brasserie is well stocked with the deliciously sticky confections.

Soft and fluffy and drenched in a creamy glaze, each bite will give you a mouthful of Christmas – just the thing to warm your cockles on a dark and miserable morning.

Order yours with an extra large coffee for an extra-productive, sugar and caffeine-fuelled morning at the office.

And get there early; these things sell like hotcakes.
