A little bit of Paris in Singapore
>> Tuesday, January 25, 2011
Asians, in general, aren't that much into desserts, especially those cloyingly sweet ones. Much to my surprise, I found lots and lots of bakeries and pastry shops springing up like mushrooms after rain this last trip to Asia. I suppose the local bakeries and cake shops have always been around but I don't ever recall seeing that many French-style pâtisseries (and they even carry the French term "pâtisserie on their signboards) during my last trip home.
