Chef Donolon's Patisserie!

Hello, my name is Chef Donolon… prepare to go on a marvellous culinary journey!


Welcome to Donolon’s Patisserie, the best place to enjoy brilliant baked goods and delectable desserts in all of Tamriel, or as the Chef likes to say: in all the planes! Our establishment is located in the heart of Alinor, where you can sample our confections while lounging in our cosy rooms or in our beautiful veranda, overlooking the capital. Among many delicious offerings, we serve cherry pies, favoured by the Proxy Queen herself, and our world famous sweetrolls: all the flavour, zero embedded suspicious messages. We also have a shop where you may buy our desserts embellished in beautiful packaging as a gift to others, or yourself! We are looking forward to making your day sweeter!


I had an idea for the Alinor Townhouse to serve as a pastry/dessert shop. I’m not sure how well the execution was because the spaces in the house are a bit difficult to decorate, being either too small or too big, but all in all I’m pleased with the result, and I had a blast coming up with ideas. I hope you like it!

The Chef's trophy room, which houses his prestigious Golden Plates, and the Golden Cauldron, the highest honour one can receive in the cullinary arts (I had no idea what to do with this room besides showcasing the sweetrolls, so I turned it into a trophy roon :smiley:):

Even with two closed-off rooms, I used up all the available slots, though to be fair, the sweetroll cake took up a lot of them :smiley:

    I started scrolling through the images thinking, where are all the sweetrolls, there's no ruddy sweet rolls!

    I was suitably rewarded as I scrolled further through!

    Just a thought though...

    ...more sweetrolls! :p

    Yep, things are pretty inconspicuous, and then bam! All the sweetrolls! If I had more slots I would have put them on more surfaces, and that cake would definitely have been taller! :smiley:

    I actually overheard the Proxy Queen mentioning how much she loves to visit Chef Donolon's. The establishment is immaculate and the sweetrolls are out of this plane. Very cool concept Jaimeh! Great work, as usual. <3 I particularly like the intimate al fresco dining areas on the rooftoop terrace.

    The Proxy Queen, who apparently has quite the sweet tooth, has been a long-standing patron indeed--if the cherry pies are sold out, you know who to blame ;)

    Thank you so much, I'm happy you like the concept, I had so much fun with it. The terrace tables were my favourite too, if that place was real I'd definitely be sipping tea and have a sweetroll or three there :lol:

    What a yummy establishment! I would definitely be a regular. Beautiful ambiance and sweet rolls works for me! Also, I love how you changed the Alinor wall cabinet into a baked goods display.

    Thank you, I'm glad to hear it! A nice ambience and desserts are a good combo in any universe, real or fictional :smile: I found that the Alinor furniture are great for merging to make new structures, because the pieces are very coherent in terms of material and shade. For example the big counter in the shop is made from an upside down desk inside drawers :smile:

    Jaimeh! I'd love to book a table for me and my friends, to dine Al Fresco please on the terrace. As we prefer a more private arrangement, one of the more romantic, sectioned, tables please. :)

    Labour of love shows here. Much planning, design, and baking! In fact, I do hope you close for the holidays so your Chef can take a break from all those sweet rolls!

    Thank you for sharing your lovely estabishment. Will be visiting in person soon! Please have table ready. :)

    Our coveted private tables are on reserve for yourself and your esteemed company, we are looking forward to serving you, and we do hope you will enjoy your time with us! :smile:

    Thank you so much Sharalei! I wanted to try something different, and I think I had more fun coming up with stories if this was a real shop in Tamriel, than the actual decorating :smiley:

    That makes me wonder why the Anniversary cakes have never been made available as furnishings.

    I wanted to use the memento for a screenshot of a table, but it would have been so much nicer to have the cake as an actual furnishing item... I really hope they will consider releasing it in the next Jubilee event!

    This is so adorable! So tastefully decorated and deliciously decadent!
    So well done and I will most definitely pay a visit. Please put us on your list for an intimate table for two on the veranda, this Saturday. We'll start with a sampling plate paired with Kir Royale please. ;)
