Breadtalk ~ Singapore's first bread boutique

Breadtalk Branch
Kallang MRT Station & Vivo City
Singapore
Breadtalk outlet in Vivo City. Me and Balong used to this bakery food chain as their bread is way too great as per our expectation. 
Every time we roam around Singapore, expects that our bag is always filled with Breadtalk’s delight (ahahaha!). It’s always our routine every morning to buy some assorted freshly baked goodies as our ‘baon’ wherever our destination be (ahahaha!). Personally, it’s one of the best bakery stores that we’ve been too and one of the best bread ever that I tasted.
Breadtalk ~ Singapore's first bread boutique
I am not supposed to make an entry about this but I am pretty sure, I’ll feel gutted if I will not share it though (hehehe!). It’s one delight you should try especially to those who are new here like we are. If you’re one of the locals then maybe it’s just ordinary but for us, then it’s another story. I’ve been to different bakeries shops here but this one is absolutely hard to resist. The basis of course is the taste and it’s way over the top.
We visit BreadTalk’s Kallang MRT Stationas it is near to our hotel accommodation. 
Breadtalk is a known bakery ‘boutique’ in Singapore. You can find most of their outlet in most convenient locations like known shopping malls, neighborhood centers, MRT stations, and famous tourist spots. I don’t know exactly how many franchise they have  around but every time we’re on a trip somewhere, there is a huge signage of ‘Breadtalk’ everywhere (hehehe!).
Everytime we passby here I always drag Balong to give me a few minutes to buy. Well few minutes sometimes last for 20 (ahahaha!)
Their branch in Kallang MRT Station is the closest store we can get into because our hotel is just a few walks away from here. Thumbs up to the friendly staff really as she always greeted us with a SMILE and that means a lot to do especially in the morning. I always remember her endearing words: ‘there you are again, going somewhere?’ (ahahaha!). It’s always great to start the day with a HUGE SMILE though as some Singaporeans is quite an opposite, you know what I mean (hehehe!).
Balong holding the tray of freshly baked goodies, yummy!!!!!
Another branch in Vivo City is another store that we are fond of visiting too. Since we always travel to Sentosa Island, we drop here several times just to add what we bought already in Kallang (hehehe!). The location is just on your way out of Harbourfront MRT Station and voila! their store will great you immediately. We usually have our cup of coffee in here somewhere and most of the coffee shops we’ve been too always sell pastries and cakes but we prefer our treats from Breadtalk (ahahaha!).
 It's one of the cheapest option to grab a bite in most convenient locations
Similar to other bakeries in the region, you grab a tray and tongs and choose any baked good in the display cases. 
I love the white minimalist concept of their stores, characterized by the extensive use of see-through glass panels, creating a bright-looking fluorescent lit-boutique. You can even see chefs showcase their expertise making their delectable bread and pastry concoctions from start to finish. The walls prime color is white and assorted bread and pastries are displayed on sleek white plastic and glass shelves like clothes on display in a store creating a wonderful array of colors and the smells is so divine!
They were all the softest, freshest, most melt-in-your mouth delicious buns that we have ever tasted! 
It is a great pit-stop to stuff yourself with all the goodies before you prepare for a long day anywhere.
Who would not want a bread that simply melts in your mouth, huh? (hehehe!). I am not talking about chocolate here, ok? (ahahaha!). What’s good about this company, they open early so if stuck for breakfast they are a great option. The best place to grab a bite and their service is amicable and fast.
you can’t get any fresher than straight out of the oven!
They don’t have the same choices every day except for their signature bread. Expects that every single day, you’ll have different flavours to try. Aside from their delightful choices, it’s a great way to save money too especially if you’re on a budget as the prices here are quite reasonable. You can buy a piece for SGD 1.++ only and am already filled with 3 to 4 pieces but since Balong is the foodie type, so we usually end up a dozen everyday (ahahaha!).
One of the reasons why it's such a success is because the bread is customised to the Asian palate. If you've had bread in Asia, you can probably taste that it usually has a bit of a sweetness to it.
Bring your items to the counter and the staff will ring up your pastries and box them up nicely for you.
It’s a self-service set-up where assorted bread is serve on selected see through compartment. What you have to do is get a thong and a tray and bingo! You’re free to choose whatever you want. After you’re done filling up your tray, go straight to the cashier and they will count how much you ordered. I don’t know if some of the stores have benches to sit-on but most of the shops we’ve been too only for take-out. They do serve drinks but only limited, so better buy your fave match up to the nearest 7/11.
Their signature ‘see thru’ kitchens allow pastry chefs to showcase their expertise right in front of your eyes. 
They have wide varieties of breads to choose from and I’ll only feature two which I prefer the most (hehehe!).
If you’ve never heard of pork floss before, it’s a sweet dried pork meat product that has a light and fluffy texture, similar to coarse cotton – and quite pillowy like cotton candy. 
First up is the most famous as most of the avid buyer would agree, is their series of ‘flosss’ delights which is absolutely outrageous!!! Their best seller, Fire Flosss or Flosss bunis worth a try really! Reminder: when we talk about fire there is a flame as this red-hot pork-fire-flosss will satisfy your fiery appetite and set your tongue ablaze, believe me!(ahahaha!). It’s way too spicy though and you’re visit to Breadtalk is incomplete if you haven’t tried this, PROMISE (ahahaha!)!!!!! I just love the sweet creamy and buttery filled bun topped with generous layers of shredded pork floss that when you bite it combines perfectly in your taste buds (ahahaha!)!!!!
BreadTalk’s fire flosss is stuck to the bun by a delectable, buttery secret recipe cream. Their incredible fire flosss bun is a definite must try when visiting Singapore.
This bread is my all-time Bread Talk favourite! Fire Floss, it's called. With a name like that, it's gotta be a hit!
I love the curry dozo too and please note again that the curried potato filling is way too spicy and we didn’t anticipated that as well (ahahaha!)!!! I love the fried bread and the soft, fluffy, and crispy exterior as it’s totally remarkable (hehehe!). Whew, I just wish they have a franchise here in Saudi Arabia, pretty sure I’ll visit and buy everyday!!! (ahahaha!)
Love bread with egg and chicken  as fillings of Japanese Bread???? If you say so then you'll surely love to sink your teeth in Curry Dozo.
Enjoy this golden brown bread stuffed with tasty food mix of curry chicken, boiled egg chuck and some veggies.
Personally, this is a little gem of a shop is worth a try. Just note however, that during peak hours expects that the line-up is always out of the door. No question about that as once you’re in Breadtalk, their endless selection of irresistible, freshly-baked sweet and savoury delicacies is a treat as always. So……. if you are in Singapore, I dare you to try just one specialty of this first bread boutique, am sure you’ll ask for more.
  Breadtalk Bonifacio Global City Branch . When I saw this place I asked Balong to buy some and lead through Starbucks which is near to the area.
Bread Choices in Bonifacio High Street.
Ka CHING!!!! SO there you go, have a great day and night everyone.

Cheeeeeeeeerrriooos!!!!

Enan signing off.

SMILE
