The name “Breaditation” caught my eye first.
It sounded like someone tried to fuse “bread” and “meditation” into one calm, carby philosophy.
Breaditation Bakery is located unassumingly at the end of Desker Road in Jalan Besar.
Somewhere near Swee Choon?
Inside, there is a display shelf of pastries, while the decor blends clean white walls with warm wood.
There is little dine‑in space though, with two indoor tables. The focus remains firmly on the baking itself.
Pastries include the Pistachio Danish ($7.20), Pain au Chocolat ($5.20), Almond Croissant ($5.50), Kouign Amann ($4.80), and Turkey Bacon & Cheese Croissant ($5.60). Other options are the Cheesy Sausage ($6.20) and a few quiche types.
For something lighter, there are Kouign Amann ($4.80) and Sun-Dried Tomato Ciabatta ($4.80), Rosemary Olive Ciabatta ($4.80), and Plain Ciabatta ($3.20). Baguettes go for ($3.40) each.
The Pistachio Danish ($7.20) is certainly the draw (and since pistachio is kind of semi-trending).
A golden spiral of pastry with a neat circle of green cream in the middle, topped with chopped nuts.
Eating it can be slightly messy though (especially when they offered to heat it up).
I took a bite and found the centre thick with pistachio filling that tasted smooth, rich-and-flowy, and just slightly salty.
A worthy signature product here.
Cute little sandwiches include Mentaiko Egg Mayo ($4.80), Tuna Mayo ($4.80), Honey Mustard Sausage ($5.20), and Teriyaki Chicken Potato Sandwich ($5.40).
I was curious about the Matcha Red Bean Butter Sandwich ($5.20), and it didn’t disappoint.
A round green bun split open to hold a slice of red bean paste and a slab of salted butter. The bun was chewy and slightly bitter from the matcha.
Loved that the red bean was dense and sweet in that earthy, clean way. They provided quite a thick slab of butter proportionately.
A straightforward bakery with quality basics and a few creative twists.
Perhaps a house-brewed tea or a simple iced drink could round out the experience. Something distinctly theirs. Just a thought.
