Ang Mo Kio residents, you’re in luck. Thai Baang, a popular Thai-inspired bakery, has opened at AMK Hub! That’s not all: from now till 29 March 2025, you can enjoy a storewide 20% discount at the new store, applicable to breads and birthday cakes alike.
In case you didn’t know, Thai Baang is said to be the first Thai bakery in Singapore. They opened near Lavender MRT Station in 2018, growing a steady following for their fluffy buns, baked in customised tins. While their OG Lavender store is now defunct, fans can still get their bread fix at the brand’s other outlets: SingPost Centre, Holland Drive, Changi City Point, and AMK Hub.
Thai Baang was inspired by the owner’s visit to Bangkok, where she’d stumbled upon a street stall selling traditional Thai bread. The buns are said to be softer and fluffier than the ones sold at most bakeries.
If it’s your first time here, you won’t go wrong with their freshly baked bread, available in a wide range of sweet and savoury flavours. Crowd favourites include Tomyam Chicken ($2.40), Ikan Bilis ($2.40), Thai Milk Tea Bun with Butter Sugar ($2.60), and Banana Kaya ($2.40).
Alternatively, check out their mochi series, where their signature buns are packed with old-school fillings such as Black Sesame ($3.50) and Yam Floss ($3.50).
Besides breads, the bakery also offers an impressive lineup of cakes, ranging from the traditional Banana Cake ($7.50) and Pandan Kaya Swiss Roll ($6.50) to whole cakes such as Traditional Black Forest ($38.80) and Choco Banana ($35.80).
