Behind Empress Market sits a new tiny bakery wedged into an unassuming HDB block. The ovens are on full tilt, and the bakers are working hard kneading, shaping loaves, pulling out deliciously crackly crusty bread and flaky pastries. Their baguettes ($2.80) are the real deal – no preservatives and sweeteners – instead they ferment their dough for 16 hours to bring out the true flavours of the imported flour. The result is a lovely crust and a good crumb. A proper neighbourhood gourmet bakery-deli – just what every HDB needs!
