Boon Lay Bus Interchange, East West Line- there are too many of them; nuzzling on breads and rolls for a pick-me-up to-get-by 'feed', far from the old-fashioned oats porridge or breakfast of the yesteryears.
Blueberry Cream Roll (SGD 1.30)
Hence the 7-eleven has created 7 Eleven Quick Bites for the busy-collared workers, artfully at Paradiz Center for its worker traffic. Take-and-go, peel-and-eat, in gorgeous reed green lines, white-coloured lines, and paisley hues residing in a metal basket for an assortment of familiar flavours.
Breakable, soft, with cream filling and flavoured bread and it aids as a reassuring meal, breakfast for the lone worker/student allaying hunger. When one is short of butterknife, pantry or a good spread at hand. Yet one hopes that through this hushed meal, one might see through this florid bread one day to historic bread; traditional bakeries with coloured Asian egg breads evoking breadman or freshly baked.P.S. Also were pandan cream, blueberry cream, red bean, and kaya, having sustained many generations of Singaporeans as their first meal of the day.
