Downtown Line- arouse@Rouse salted egg yolk roll
Sunny
Cafes are likened for a wholesome experience, the usual cafe, or eggs fare. But a dark, soulful atmosphere? Rouse cafe was a bit too hard to handle.
Muslim-owned, but not halal certified. A mean salted egg on the menu. Or Jalan Besar, the most cooling neighbourhood behind Little India. Nearest station being the Downtown Line or Little India station.
And that Rouse was going to be closed in a day's time? What a hipster, it wouldn't even be around the next day.
Outside the cafe was the motherland of Little India, such sounds, and colour. Even if there wasn't any Waffle Crisp rainbow cheesecake or grape Vitagen (peanut butter jelly) cake, there was still the salted egg yolk.
Muesli Brioche Toast
I wasn't surprised that the compote was homemade. Dark-coloured berry compote, with whole, fat blueberries. Blackened to a char, whatever that was muesli on the sides of the bread was dehydrated, hard, tasting like popcorn. There was a faint whiff of eggs along, French, or like what they said brioche toast.
Salted Egg Calamari Roll (SGD 12.90)
In a Boston lobsteresque London buttered roll, however an autumnal treatment was given to the fries or chips. Orange and purple sweet potato and purple potato chips. The calamari was heavy in taste, complete with curry leaves and chilli padi, you thought you were at a local smokin' bomb till you find yourself bread again.

Lavender Bun with coconut filling (SGD 2.80)
Live, Laugh, Love, Joy- Y(u)m?-@ DeliJoy
Sunny
Yammy Bun (SGD 0.70)
Crumb of the soft bun as purple as what it is, yam. Like a rabbit with its all-carrot meal, because we are humans we need to have our fix all
P.S. No wonder there is a certain friendliness to the brand. Delijoy, known for its fluffy buns sending some of the love to the west. Kissing them making them blush or lilac now.

No photo is needed to show how quaint, peculiar, rustic the area is. Well (because) it is Provence Bakery & Cafe(, Petit Provence), we clutch an idea of how it is like, custard, chocolate and kaya, the traffic light(-stopping) colours of wassants, everything you need to know about Provence.
Melon Pan
P.S. Adroit hands, how it was passed to the counter was also how your bread tasted like. Lightweight, milky, stretchy, even if no(or less) milk was associated with pans in the first place. Meeting the distinctive chop of wassants or Petit Provence from Japan.
G(red) velvety taste- from MK Levure Naturelle
Sunny
MK Levure Naturelle is churning bread. Not cakes red velvet cake. It has been quite a family. Cake, hot cocoa, doughnut, crepe. Now (what), MK's toast loaves are buy a pair at stunted price, try one in red velvet(?).
Red Velvet (SGD 2.80)
The deepened, seasoned red is what is seen and tastes or you knows of red velvet. A ginger surprise is cheese inside, the less matured creamy, European asian selection.
P.S. The favourite sakura. The flower which can be made into mochi, bread, cheesecake, onigiri, pastries. Red velvet which can be made into ice cream batter, bread, biscuit, waffle, beverage. No one else has been it colour which has been transformed into a flavour.
So much for [potatoes]-@ Takashimaya Food Fest
Cloudy
It is a good hail of a purple sweet potato haven. 2 japanese sweet potatoes for SGD12 (take it or not(?)), 1 for SGD6. Korean sweet potato squares in glaze and honey, and this.
Karinto manju with sweet paste (SGD 1.80)
{(When I already had roasted japanese sweet potatoes), do we still need this
P.S. Whether sweet potato|purple potato|black sesame or bean jam paste, in black or brown sugar; it is satiating to know {in your stomach} deep-fried, but (not so) simple and honest the sweet is prepared carefully and earnestly as japanese wagashi.
What flows your sand?-Contemporary@ CJade Kitchen
Sunny
{When you read one of the limbs of Crystal Jade Enterprise has new (?)flowy buns nesting in steamer baskets}. The colours of roe. Crab roe (orange), egg custard (yellow) and century yolk (purple)?
Assorted Custard Steamed Bun (SGD 4.40)
Reminds me of this. The embraced and turned glamourous dim sum becoming customizable as if the colour {you have chosen} speaks forth your personality type. It has so many names and rather mind-bending. Custard bun, molten salted egg yolk bun, golden lava custard.
P.S. The sweet corn (yellow) is like custard.The grassy fragrance of the grain tossed on the yellow skin and into a paste with custard inside. The yam (purple) is like
The purple work(s)-out- fab 6 pax from Swee Heng
Night
Bread from one of the most prepossessing places of the earth. (Or is it one of the most prepossessing bread.)
Swee Heng. The contender of branded packages that local toilers are carrying, from SBS bus transport to circle line. No matter where we are going, we like to take along a piece home.
Blueberry (SGD 2.30)
P.S. That possessing dual purple and pink ringlets of daisies, again. {Like how one can't tell between green or blue until the clover finishes its leaves turquoise:} for that reason you are duped it is cake.
Pink Pan(ther)- female@ Donq
Sunny
Only the French would be that tantalizing. Full-bodied masterpieces, like flower heads, lavish ingredients. At a glance, heavily textured waxing and waning. The dark, the light (dusted), the savoury, the sweet breads. One of its signature include the mentaiko french, and the dutch bread.
Pink Panda (chocolate chips) (SGD 3.00)
Ganache heaven, it is the Japanese. Little lake of colour, or pool. Ice-cream station Donq has stamped the Mr Panda, sighted and reproduced a sakura version, Ms Panda strawberry. Chocolate, and strawberry. Scoop which comes in more than 1 flavour residing in the well. Breads which draw the people to, because the lighting and heating are flamed and torched like a creamery. The goody bag of fruits and vegetables, herbs and elegant meats, flour and technique and content.
The bun is brioche based, yeasty, not that fine, higher butter or milk taste. It is golden, crusty at the bottom equally dark exposing real chocolate drops. Panda bow achingly tied pink, however it is under a different umbrella, rich, tender. So is the (panda) eye. A sparkly eye, crumbed, sugared.
P.S. The pink panda is one of the lovely mistakes on earth. Mutation. Premium camouflage. Sweet, turning pandas females. No. The strawberry panda was not strawberry (the cream, chocolate), but table sugar candied.
Black bread- bread which passed the custom
Night
It was identifiable, black.
It was identifiable, black.
Bamboo Nugget Bun (RM 2.80)
Not one which stuck out like a sore, it was bamboo (charcoal). Of old school provision shops, traditional wedding cakes, buns in 6s, one had not seen this in a long time. Complete. One's fish sandwich in elementary school. Trail of hotdog, fish nugget, chili(not tomato) sauce, sliver of cucumber, slice cheese, mayonnaise. Were grouped since time immemorial.
Cranberry Cream Cheese (RM 2.20)
Hint of tarty and sweet, birthchild of Philadelphia(?) and dried fruits in asia, in anpan northeast would be red bean paste, southern would be raisin cream cheese. The significance of bamboo in the region.
How the flattened bread added to the design of the taste, the cream cheese, though chopped or minced, aligned with the salty butteriness of the confectionery bun. Not dry, the local flavour which sells like hot
P.S. One of the cheese and cranberry bun, smart as ingenious as the oreo {black cocoa}. The vibrancy of the colour (black) against the paled out whites which signals for its health properties.
Viewing- @ Green Pumpkin Japanese Bakery
Sunny
The last day (season), the last petal drop. One was fortunate enough to catch it.
There was a section dedicated to sakura, this flower not only ornamental to look at, embleming life, hope it had.
The baked goods, some of the English versions made in sakura. It is an educational ride itself. The patisserie also had a cake section specifically for sakura selections.
Sakura Trio (SGD 3.50)
A marriage of the French and Japanese? Japan's crowned pearls green tea, sakura, original(yellow- yuzu?). We might not know how to section the love. Choux pastry balls upon a sugar paste biscuit, though the cream was light and not pertaining to any camp, the profiteroles were juicy. Encasing matcha and sakura in the puff. A combination of snappy, beaten and crispy textures.
Cornet Sakura (SGD 1.80)
|New| and beaming from the bakery, is cornet roll from Japanese origins. French coronet? Second to croissant.[?] The bread was sweet, like pan of Green Pumpkin with something made in Japan inside. Cornet with chocolate or custard filling, this one is sakura flavoured custard. An appropriate pink and blushing. Ringing cherry taste and a nice dash of the custard both flower and custard fans will like.
Mont Blanc Sakura (SGD 3.50)
Green pumpkin had pumpkin (mont blanc). Or chestnut or green tea or purple potato. This one is the height of the season sakura and chestnut cream piped. Not as thin and fine the strands, the monc blanc was sweet and wholesome, the chestnuts providing a sturdy flavour. Visionary and good as it looks a mont blanc in pink. Combined with fresh strawberry in the center.
P.S. Cherry. Closest taste to the sakura, the fleshy, exquisite fruit almost like a berry. The flower of the cherry. How the ethereality of cherry blossoms in food came about.
Star (hot)-crossed buns
Sunny
Cloud of flowers by the April, (no matter how many times I have been eagerly encircling around here) I have been reminded that (gratefully) Green Pumpkin Japanese Bakery has not deviated from its initial story. Green pumpkin- the bibelot of a bun, shaped like a pumpkin, with green skin resembling those of the intense squash, the asian variety or Japanese pumpkin. Not too far, with the cracked assignment of tourmalines littered, pink (garnet) and white breads laid for the spread.
In Japan, April is the month of the cherry blossoms and Ichiban Sushi, Ichiban Boshi and its birthed patisserie Green Pumpkin Japanese Bakery sound the horn of spring synchronically with sweet sakura selections. Kawaii, another of its weapon, the animal-shaped buns series, a Part 1, painstakingly provides labels for you knowing the bread-thirsty in you. For a cuppa, go with the irregular, asian rendition of Yuzu Latte or Matcha Latte, and trail in a little bit with pumpkin puree in the green pumpkin mont blanc, or nutty mix of pumpkin seeds on top of a pumpkin-flavoured green pumpkin muffin.
How many times of the year can you catch such a (botanical) sight? Once in a pink moon. Pink and white, on majority of the trays. At one of the shelves occupied, an electrifying pink slays through the (?)cheeses and cheese-crusted bun. Lightning.
Sakura Mochi Bun (SGD 1.80)
Facilitating the ebb and flow of the pink across the bakery, this red ruby(dessert) of the shop is the height of the cherry ruddiness. The snow cone, also evident in a cross-hatched melonpan or pineapple bun is sakura flower head-shaped, and previously used as inscriptions in its sakura mochi and sakura buns, or leaf vectors for green tea (leaves) in the matcha mochi bun.
Sakura Cubey Cheese (SGD 2.10)
Sakura, and cubes (the abstraction, the illusion), there is some form of incapacity in grasping how the sakura is to be suggested on a (savoury) bun entirely. While the pink may have been jarring, it is a juicy, pink currant of brined sakura (blossom) on a cheese bun. The translucent gelatinous pink squares? I am no longer obliged to find the Laughing Cow's party cubes- discard the ham or tomato or french onion, cheese is pink here! The sugared cheese (sweet taste)- deposited at the crater of the cookie crust wrapped around a soft ball of bread dough bun, distributed among the other cheese cubes. Igneous stones between.
Where there was cheese, there's ham. Matcha dainagon, (or tsubushian, koshian, kurogama) they are too run of a mill for Japanese pans- we'd need some yuzu, satsumaimo, or kubocha(?), this is sakura anpan. Though matcha bread, it is filled with shiro-an or sakura-an (encouraging), the latter easy on the mouth white bean paste and minced sakura leaves and perhaps, pink colouring, churning up that impression of meat. Hence it does not hurt being bitten a second time, one of the top pick me up in Green Pumpkin.
P.S. Ichiban Sushi/Boshi or Green Pumpkin Japanese Bakery are planted in the trio of colours, white, pink, green because their mill runs deep into the traditions of wagashi making. This answers for the venturesome make-up of the bakery's interiors/fillings- the tsubushi-an (coarse red bean) koshi-an (fine red bean) satsumaimo (sweet potato) kurogama (black sesame) shiro-an (white bean) kubocha (Japanese green pumpkin), and why it'd be
