The Famous Berry Pies, Berry

Its quite a coincidence that Berry has the famous doughnut shop and another famous pie shop. Well, the famous “ Berry Pie Shop”- small little café and serves a wide array of pies, sausage rolls, pasties and quiches. Simple pie shop. You have the regular pies- steak, steak and cheese, steak and mushroom, steak and kidney. Then you have the sausage rolls, spinach, ricotta and feta roll, vegetable pasties. In the gourmet pies, various versions of the chicken pies- the chicken leek and mushroom, chicken and vegetable, chicken and curry, the butter chicken, chicken with honey and mustard. You also have quiches, and freshly baked bread. Look overall, there is usually a long queue. This is a cash only joint. When I went there, I was interested in the chicken and curry pie or the butter chicken pie. Unfortunately, both were sold out. I was tempted between the Thai green curry pie and the chunky lamb pie. Eventually settled for the chunky lamb pie and the chicken and mushroom pie.

Fuji Bakery

I end up going to a bakery called the Fuji Bakery, which reminds me of bread top, back home in Sydney. Its got all these goodies which just makes my eyes roll. Yum! Hot dog snacks, French loaf, spicy chicken floss, garlic bread, cream cheese buns, blueberry cheese buns, egg burger, it’s a never ending list. I settle for a Chicken Patties Bun, an egg potato ham bun and a chicken pie. They only serve you in takeaway bags. I walk to the nearby and start to devour these goodies as I am famished. The chicken potato ham bun is probably my favorite- its good mashed buttery potatoes, along with crumbled hard boiled eggs and ham. The chicken patties is like a basic chicken crumbed patty in a burger seeded bun. Again basic and good. Chicken Pie is descent as well. The price was all for just $4.50. Wow! I got to love Singapore for its prices. FUJI BAKERY BEDOK INTERCHANGE SINGAPORE

Al Afrah Sweets, Punchbowl

All right, every time I am in Punchbowl to eat a meal in Jasmine 1, I have to visit Al Afrah. A quick walk across the street, Al Afrah is this bright white shop which specialises in Sweets. Specifically in Baklava and middle eastern delights. As you go in, there is a never ending counter filled with different variations of baklava. Like a Kid I start with saying, just one and I end up filling the box with a mixed varieties of all the sweets. To begin with there is Baklava, which comes in multiple shapes. The basic, thin cylindrical ones, followed by the square open ones, the round ones. Then there these sweets which have a coconut base and topped with chocolate, or pistachios. There is also the one which resembles like the Indian Burfi, with a chocolate layer on the top. They have these sweets which resembles Jalebi's in India, except that I think Jalebis are better. Overall, I cant say enough, this is an awesome sweet shop. My favourites are the regular baklava in all s
