Those who frequent Orchard have a new spot to visit for their carb cravings: Kamome Bakery has opened their third outlet at Paragon Shopping Centre!
The popular Japanese bakery has two other stores on the island: Joo Chiat and Novena. The former is takeaway-only, while the latter is a dine-in cafe.
A popular item is the Red Bean Butter ($3.40), which is also available at their other bakeries. This hearty snack comprises a French baguette sandwiched with Japanese red bean paste, complete with thick slabs of butter. There’s also the Kids Red Bean Butter ($2.50), which I personally prefer as it features a soft bun instead.

Regulars love their Melon Pan ($3.20), Cheese & Honey ($3.20), and Cinnamon Roll ($3.60) too. Besides fresh bread, the bakery also offers flaky pastries and savoury bakes, including Croissants ($4)Â and Quiche Salmon ($5).

If you prefer something to cool you down on a hot afternoon, head to their display of cold treats for you to grab and go. Their fruit sandos, which come in flavours such as Strawberry (price TBD) and Mango (price TBD), are rather popular.
The Japanese bakery is on Basement 1 of Paragon, a 10-minute walk from Orchard MRT Station.

Otherwise, read our Nowafter Cafe feature if you’re up for cafe fare in town! The monochrome-themed Korean cafe in Orchard is most popular for their Charkey Bun which resembles famous Korean dessert brand NUDAKE’s Peak Cake. It features a fluffy charcoal bun packed with gooey mozzarella, truffle sour cream, and garlic herb butter.
