On the day of the wedding, we had some time to ourselves before getting all dressed up and proper. So we decided to walk around and eventually end up at the Island Gourmet Bakery at the Island Shangri-La Hotel.
They had some really nice offering there including a smaller version of the Frou Frou cake, rillets, and pate. But my eyes were held steady at the baked breads. Below is a mini brioche muffin. This buttery, flaky bread was quite nice. It wasn't as buttery as I would have liked but decent enough.
I naturally chose the croissant and it was really good. The buttery layers of bread made my mouth so happy. This was actually one of the better croissants I've had in a very long time.
Again, the Island Gourmet Bakery did it again. I would one day like to sit down and have a meal there. They have a small cafe seating area. If I could dine on that croissant, some pate, and end with the Frou Frou cake, I would be one VERY happy person.
