What Japan's Green Tea Oreos Taste Like

comments

Why does Japan always get the exotic snack flavours? With over 200 varieties of Kit Kat and Pocky to choose from, the Japanese must be really spoilt for choice. Now, add another one to the list. Two of the most-loved creations from the East and the West are finally together in a destined marriage to create the ultimate teatime snack - Matcha Oreo Bits Sandwiches! Yes, matcha, the finely milled and antioxidant-rich vibrant green powder from Japan which is different from normal green tea, is finally paired with the world's favourite cookie (and one of the biggest proponents of obesity) from America, Oreo in a dream pairing for matcha and chocolate aficionados all over the world.

What You'll Find In The Best Japanese Bakery in Singapore

comments

With many Japanese bakeries hitting Singapore lately, Pullman Bakery from Hokkaido, baking daily since 2010, continues to stay strong, reigning in many customers daily with their tantalising and exquisite freshly-baked Japanese breads. Recently, I had an opportunity to work in the city and after two short weeks, the bakery at the tranquil Millenia Walk shopping centre has cemented its place as my favourite. Among the 10 or so breads which I have tried during the past two weeks, my favourites are both their Butter and Almond Croissants, both distinctively different yet incredibly good, the fried Sweet Potato Donut which comes with an extremely generous filling and the Nuts & Kaya Bun, which is a perfect complement of almonds and walnuts, Japanese-inspired kaya and soft, heavenly bread with a crispy exterior.
