Keong Saik Bakery At Holland Village
Keong Saik Bakery, a bakery cafe that offers an attractive mix of traditional and contemporary cakes and pastries, has been one of the standout cafes along Keong Saik Road ever since its inception in 2017. You can now try out their delectable treats at their new branch, which is situated in Holland Village's Chip Bee Gardens.

Keong Saik Bakery already makes excellent kouign-amann, and they offer a matcha version of the pastry as well. With the new Miso Kouign-Amann ($4.70), however, they have gone one step further with their Japanese influences, adding the savoury flavour of miso to the sweet Breton pastry.
Nori seaweed bits are sprinkled over its brown, well-caramelised surface, and its insides are said to be buttery and laced with umami.

The Salmon Eggs Benedict Cube ($7) is also a great addition to the Keong Saik Bakery lineup. Cut open this geometrical pastry to find sous vide egg, smoked salmon and hollandaise sauce oozing out of a thyme croissant body.

If this is your first time visiting Keong Saik Bakery, you should try some of their fan favourites as well. High on your priority list should be their signature Sor Hei ($5), a black and white Danish pastry modelled after the majie's hair buns. The majie formed a primary part of Singapore's heritage; these women mostly worked as nannies or domestic helpers back in the 1930s to 1970s. Here, the Sor Hei pastry is notable for its crispiness on the outside, and rich chocolate chips nestled inside.

Also worth trying is the Seashore 2.0 ($8.80) cake, a strikingly elegant cake with a baby blue upper layer of sea salt butterfly pea mousse and butterfly pea whipped ganache, atop an earl grey cheesecake and shortbread cookie base.
