Asanoya Bakery, a Japanese bakery
having a long history since 1933, has finally set foot in Singapore. Asanoya
Bakery was located in 15 Queen Street, serving many quality bread and tart. It
has also been gaining popularity in Singapore due to the launch of Salted Egg
Yolk Croissants as well as Matcha Salted Egg yolk Croissants.
I have thought imagined that
the Asanoya Bakery to be a takeaway bakery or maybe a small café with limited
seats. But to my surprise, it has a huge seating area which can seat probably
80 pax.
The café was brightly lit
with white background creating a visual impression that the café was huge,
clean and cosy. You can also see freshly baked breads and tarts being displayed
on the rack.

Everything just look too tempting.
Despite only two of us, I over-ordered and burst my calories intake. But it is
so worthwhile.
All you have to do is to
queue up. When it is your turn, the staff will serve you and pack your items
for you (for takeaway) or if you are intending to dine-in, they will give you a
pager and heat up the food for you.

These are what I order
during the first round – Matcha Salted Egg Yolk Croissant ($4.90) , Salted Egg
Yolk Croissant ($4.50), Chocolate Lava Cube Topped with Haagen Dazs Matcha Ice
Cream ($4.50 + $4), Tart Au Poire
($5.50)
 |
| Salted Egg Yolk Croissant ($4.50) : The croissants was soft and crispy. The salted egg yolk was slightly grainy but it was not oversweet. The generous filling of salted egg yolk lava makes this croissant very worthwhile as it enable diner to have a taste of the lava in every bite. |
 |
Matcha Salted Egg Yolk Croissant ($4.90) : It does not
ooze out like the original salted egg yolk but the combination of matcha and
salted egg yolk was surprising good. Matcha has the taste of sweet and
bitterness while salted egg yolk has the taste of sweet and salty. This
combination of both ingredients allows us to have a combination of sweet,
bitter and salty taste. These taste may seems like it contradict with each
other but surprising, they seems to be in harmony in this croissant.
|
 |
Chocolate Lava Cube Topped with Haagen Dazs Matcha Ice Cream ($4.50 +
$4) : Upon cutting, the chocolate lava oozed out of the soft chocolate bread.
It was really delicious. The chocolate lava uses tend to have a bitter after taste,
preventing the whole bread from being overly sweet. The hot soft bread and the hot
lava helps together with the chilled matcha ice cream create a satisfaction
from contrasting food temperature.
|
 |
Tart Au Poire ($5.50) : Pear and cassis in almond Frangipane. It was a very
new combination for me. But it taste interesting as it was sweet with a little
sticky texture. But the sweetness does not make it unbearable. Instead, it
gives a very mild fragrance in your mouth after eating.
|
I was trying to have a
catch-up session with my best friend while chilling in the café. The more I look
at the bread, the more tempted I get. In the end, I can’t resist my temptation
and went to order more.
 |
Potato French ($3.20) : You will be surprise to find a whole potato encased
in the French bread accented with butter and mayonnaise. French toast were hard
while the potato within was really soft, giving it a contrasting texture.
Personally, I find that the mayonnaise was too much for my liking as I find
that it overpowered the natural taste of baked potato.

Sweet Potato Yuzu Danish ($3.60) : The Danish was crispy and sweet. Topped with
warm Sweet potato was also sweet and fresh. The hint of tanginess from yuzu helps
to prevent the sweetness from being overpowering, complementing the Danish very
well.
