ST Bakery

Was hankering for a snack to munch on and happened to pass by this bakery. I pulled my buddies in to look around. At first glance, the buns don’t look that different from those at Swee Heng Bakery. Then we discovered cake rolls, marble cake and waffles, which aren’t available at my bakery of choice.
I settled on a cranberry muffin and a banana walnut muffin. A sign said buns were priced at 3 for $ 3, so I picked a durian bun, black pepper chicken and a cranberry cream cheese bun. Yeah, all five for me. I can eat you know, it just doesn’t show.
The buns were blehh. I have never seen a mustard yellow banana walnut muffin (and it was topped with such a miserable amount of walnuts). I sensed no real fruit, but lots of food flavouring. Plus, the muffins were so dry! The durian bun didn’t fare any better — it tasted bitter. Swee Heng’s durian buns are still king, for me. Black pepper chicken bun, so-​so lah. I had the cranberry cream bun afterwards. It was tooth-​achingly sweet and stuffed with so much cream cheese, I felt like puking out everything I consumed before, so I decided to keep the other two items for breakfast the following day.
Lesson learnt: Next time, cross the road and grab something from Swee Heng Bakery instead. Then strangers won’t give me weird looks if I walk around clutching at my bloated tummy.
