(SPOT.ph) Remember when we spotted a board-up and teasers of Singapore's Tiong Bahru Bakery in Bonifacio Global City a few months back? There was excitement building up as this was the first-ever Tiong Bahru Bakery branch to open in the Philippines—and just in case you didn't know, it's also the first-ever branch outside of their home court. It's a first for both!

Tiong Bahru Bakery was already on soft opening for the past few months. Still, now they're ready to welcome swarming guests craving a bite of the Singaporean bakery's signature buttery and flaky croissants, and crisp and sweet kouign amann and pain au chocolat.

Singapore's famous Tiong Bahru Bakery opens its first international branch in BGC

Tiong Bahru Bakery's interiors exude the same cozy café aesthetic seen across most of their shops in Singapore. It has that trademark color combination of earthy greens and warmer shades of orange that can be seen on the mix-and-matched tiles used on the floor, counter, and walls, even on the framed illustrations of their pastries hung on the wall.

The eclectic charm extends to the furniture—an easy-on-the-eyes medley of wooden and leather chairs and tables in hues of yellow, orange, brown, and green, and a playful pop of blue. Overhead, woven light fixtures add a tropical touch, their vine-like crocheted embellishments hugging around the lights.

These are the things you take note of once you've taken in the interiors of Tiong Bahru Bakery, but, let's be honest: Everyone's eyes will inevitably be drawn to the gleaming display of golden pastries on the marbled emerald green counter. And speaking of pastries, it’s time we explore the treasures awaiting Tiong Bahru Bakery’s menu.

What's on the Tiong Bahru Bakery BGC menu?

Take a deep sigh of relief because the menu does include their bestselling Croissant (P145/piece), Pain Au Chocolat (P165/piece), and Kouign Amann (P200). But if you find excitement in toppings, textures, and more flavor, there's also the Almond Croissant (P200), Green Tea Almond Croissant (P220), Chocolate Kouign Amann (P240), and Almond Chocolate Croissant (P220).

For savory pastries—an underrated section that we think deserves more hype—includes the bestselling Ham & Gruyère Croissant (P330) and Egg Mayo & Smoked Salmond Croissant (P400). The bakery does have an extensive selection for savory eats, like the Brie & Roasted Mushroom Croissant (P425), Croque Monsieur (P435), Ham & Butter Baguette (P365), Pulled Pork Bun (P365), Quiche Lorraine (P295), Salmon & Spinach Quiche (P430), Za'atar & MIso Eggplant Sandwich (P365). A personal favorite of ours is the Pastrami Croissant (P415) that has cold and smoky pastrami cuts, cornichons, and mustard.

Other can't-be-missed items on the menu include the Canele (P150), Chocolate Eclair (P295), Lemon Tart (P295), and Apple Pie (P285, +P30 to make it an a la mode). Should you want to take a piece of Tiong Bahru Bakery home and have it for breakfast, there's Brioche Bun in Plain (P155), Sugar (P155), Chocolate (P175); Brioche Loaf in Plain (P260) and Sugar (P345); Baguette (P155), Rosemary Focaccia (P240), and Sourdough (P295), and Tiong Bahru Bakery Kale Caesar Salad (P485).

The Singaporean bakery also has beverages you can pair with pastries—from coffee using beans produced by Common Man Coffee Roasters, fragrant teas, and refreshing fruit and vegetable juices. The coffee options cover all the basics, from espresso shots to different kinds of lattes: Espresso (P165), Macchiato (P165), Piccolo Latte (P165), Flat White (P175/Regular, P195/Large), Latte (P175/Regular, P195/Large, P210/Iced), Cappuccino (P175/Regular, P195/Large, P210/Iced), Magic (P165), Mocha (P195/Regular, P210/Large, P230/Iced), Hot Chocolate (P165/Regular, P185/Large, P205/Iced), Long Black (P135/Regular, P155/Large, P175/Iced).
