Here’s some good news for fans of Pipes by Hattendo: the popular sando cafe from Japan is launching a limited-time pop-up at Great World, in Meidi-Ya Supermarket!
The pop-up store will take place for two months from 15 December 2023, daily from 11am to 8pm. We’re not sure what the menu will be, but according to the brand’s Instagram post, one can expect their signature sando, cream buns, and coffee.
Over at their original location in Outram Park, their Hokkaido Wagyu Beef Patty ($20++) sando is a must-try. It stars a thick Wagyu patty slathered in a savoury and tangy hamburg sauce.
Their Dashimaki Mentai Tamago ($14++) is not to be missed, too. This stacked sandwich comprises tamagoyaki paired with a creamy mentaiko mayo and fresh veggies.
In case you didn’t know, Pipes by Hattendo first started as a Japanese confectionery shop in Hiroshima, circa 1933. The bakery then developed their signature shokupan recipe that’s made with premium French butter and Japanese flour. Till today, this special bread is an important component in their famous sandwiches!
While the cafe is most known for their savoury sando range, their cream buns are said to be delicious, too. Made with sweet brioche, these handmade cream buns come in flavours such as Custard, Matcha, and Chocolate. These desserts buns will be available at the upcoming pop-up.
