Paris Baguette

 
A dinner date with Leecher @ Paris Baguette Cafe, the newest addition to Wisma Atria, replacing Din Tai Fung (which moved to Food Republic) Don't be mistaken by the French name - Paris Baguette is actually a chain of top Korean bakery, with over 2,900 stores all over Korea, none in France/Paris. 
 Check out the crowd & try spotting Leecher in the queue. The above is the queue for takeaway items, while there is another queue for dining. Don't make the same mistake as Leecher, who just joined any queue that he saw.
 
Paying for the food after queuing for 10 min.
 
waiting for food! 
 
Maybe they should change the uniform (looked very much like a prisoner's uniform!) to a clean-white outfit, for that bakery feel :)
 
with our drinks, which came at a rather hefty price tag.
 
Iced Orange Tea ($11.00) which Leecher didn't have a fond liking of.  
 
Mango Smoothie, which I didn't have a liking towards. 
I'm actually very hungry despite the smile in the pictures, lol! 苦笑
Food better come before I explode with hunger and anger!  
Kitchen across the restaurant, churning out freshly baked bread & pastries.  
 
Cheese Omelette with a Difference ($18.00) - omelette with spinach, gruyere and feta cheese. Cheesy name and it certainly don't make a difference, apart from my pockets. This was extremely cheesy and best to share. 
I can't recall the name of this & google didn't help much. Nevertheless, Leecher was full of praises for the bread while I loved the penne that came along with it. A must-try :)
Kenneth dear came over after picking up his new car, so we became his first passengers later that night.
Kenneth, with his matching clothes & specs, lol!
We were too full to try out their breads, so we packed a couple home for breakfast next day.
The massive jam along Orchard, but we get to enjoy the christmas decorations in the comfort of the car.
 Packed some items back for enjoyment, since Leecher was full of praises of their bread the day before. 
 Berry Berry Buttons ($3.50) - I love the chewiness of this bread, though it was a bit pricey for a small piece of bread. 
 
 Mushroom Foccacio, which was essentially a plain-looking and tasteless bread, topped with mushrooms. Given how I love mushrooms, this bread is a sign of major disappointment. Do not attempt, unless you have a liking for tasteless food. 

Despite the disappointment, I think I will give this place another shot - with the focus being on their star items for my next visit :)
