Known for its coffee and amazing cream puffs, Baristart Coffee Singapore will be opening a new outlet in the heart of Singapore’s bustling shopping district, situated within Wisma Atria on 15 Sep 2023.

Uncover this coffee sanctuary nestled on the fourth floor within the OCBC Wisma Atria branch which is a huge lifestyle and banking branch spanning over 20,000 sq ft with various lifestyle concepts, retail spaces and even a hidden omakase restaurant.

At Baristart Coffee’s new location, customers can indulge in the well-loved classics that have garnered a strong following among their loyal supports.

These include their captivating selection of sandos, such as the Tonkatsu with tender Hokkaido pork loin, along with the much-loved flavorful Wafu Pasta.

Additionally, the menu encompasses an array of coffee and dessert choices, highlighted by the indulgent BIEI Jersey Milk sourced from Hokkaido. This features their assortment of delectable Sweet Jar Custard Cream Puddings, Cream Puffs, and the signature velvety Softcream ice creams with a milky essence.

Certainly modest in appearance yet filled with a burst of rich custard made from Hokkaido BIEI Jersey Milk, Baristart Coffee’s delightful giant cream puffs are immensely popular and they are easily the best cream puffs you can get in Singapore.

While there are many things about Japanese cuisine that we love, few are able to satisfy our cravings for crispy, greasy delight as well as a hearty tonkatsu. Be it in the form of meat, poultry or seafood—anything coated in egg and panko breadcrumbs and fried to golden perfection warrants our attention.

Anzu—a popular tonkatsu restaurant from Japan—at Wisma Atria’s Japan Food Town specialises in tonkatsu and it features a remarkable range of katsu offerings on their menu.

Tonkatsu joints may be in abundance in Singapore, but if you are someone who values great service on top of delicious food, then Anzu is a place you have to pay a visit to.

THICK PORK LOIN KATSU SET

Fat is flavour as far as meat is concerned and more importantly, it keeps the tonkatsu itself incredibly moist. We loved every bit of Thick Pork Loin Katsu (S$25++) from the crunch of the breaded exterior to the pork juices that come spilling out all over our tongue with each bite.

Every katsu set comes with free-flow portions of rice and salad, chawanmushi as well as your choice of either seaweed or clam soup.

PORK LOIN KATSU SET

Considerably easier to manage given that it is not as huge as its thicker counterpart, we enjoyed this version in the sense that we could really taste the porky goodness erupt the moment we bit into it.

Our only issue was that, due to the lack of delicious fat, this tonkatsu option (S$20++) was quite dry—to the extent that we had to rely heavily on the sauce and soup to balance it out.

We must say that we were impressed by how every component was executed properly from the pork katsu to even the accompanying side dishes right down to the house-pickled carrot and cucumber served on the side.

PABLO Cheese Tart is opening its first outlet at Wisma Atria in Singapore in early August!

Hailing all the way from Osaka, PABLO’s Baked Cheese Tarts are extremely well-known for their cheesy and crumbly baked cheese tarts. You no longer have to fly all the way to Japan to have a taste of it anymore because there is an outlet in Singapore.

Since news arrived in mid-April that the famous Baked Cheese Tart brand will be opening its first outlet in Singapore, we have been waiting for this day to come. Here’s what you can expect.

Fans of this Japanese brand would know that PABLO takes pride in producing freshly baked Cheese Tarts at their onsite kitchen daily. Flavours include the original Freshly Baked Cheese Tart, Matcha Cheese Tart with Shiratama & Azuki and Chocolate Cheese Tart which comes with rich chocolate bits.

These cheesy delights are going at S$15 each and yes, you really have to try their legendary cheese tarts for yourself. Similar to the ones in Japan, PABLO’s Baked Cheese Tarts are so soft that they jiggle when you shake them!

Other items you can look forward to indulging include PABLO Mini (S$3.50/piece), PABLO Mini Matcha (S$3.80/piece) and PABLO Mini Chocolate (S$3.80). The mini cheese tarts came with crumbly crusts which went very well with creamy cheese fillings.

However, do note that the PABLO Mini Chocolate and PABLO Mini Matcha tarts are not available during the opening. They will be released at a later date.

Those who are in the mood for something better, treat your taste buds to the Premium Cheese Tart (S$28). It comes with a caramelised top just like a creme brulee!

Wait, that is not all. If you are looking for a drink, why not try some PABLO smoothies (from S$7.80)? This Classic Cheese Tart flavour will impress all cheese lovers as it is extremely flavourful and its unique taste is not like any we have tried before.

Pablo Cheese Tart is coming to Singapore!

Known for its wonderfully cheesy and crumbly baked cheese tarts, the famous Pablo Cheese Tart shop from Osaka will be opening its first outlet in Wisma Atria.

Pablo is not famous for no reason, and its perpetual queues explain it all. The cheesecakes first originated from Osaka but now has outlets all over Japan.

The most interesting bit about Pablo is the fact that they have only been around for a few years yet they have already gained a massive following all over Japan and even the world.

The arrival of Pablo Cheese Tart will likely spark a frenzy among cheese tart lovers. Given that the hype over BAKE Cheese Tart has died down over the past months, it remains to be seen if Pablo Cheese Tart will do better than its competitor.

News has it that its first outlet will be in Wisma Atria Singapore, but we have no concrete info of its opening dates now. Keep your eyes peeled; we will definitely update this space!

Meanwhile, if you do not want to join the queue for the cheese tarts, you can grab a box of cheese tarts when you are in Bangkok and Kuala Lumpur.
