#fatahbeng eats at Hattendo Singapore!

Newly opened at Tanjong Pagar Centre this year is Hattendo from Hiroshima Japan!

Of all the cream puffs, cream rolls and creamy snacks.. This one takes the cake literally!

Open kitchen concept with a Japanese baker. Hattendo features five cream bun flavours, signature custard, fresh cream, azuki, matcha and chocolate.

I haven't gotten to try all five flavours as there's a crazy queue during weekdays! Despite being near my office, as you know, lunch time is precious for #fatahbeng. And when there's no queue, you know it's sold out. I came here on a Saturday at 1pm but three flavours were already sold out since there was waves of queues. 

Came again after work on a weekday and only two flavours left again. Managed a small chat with the cashier and he told me that there are still buns left because they upped the supply! :)

I must rave about their latte. Their exclusive jap blend coffee is intense but smooth and thick because they've used japanese milk. It's $5 for the iced one, cheaper than most branded coffee joints around but tops the game easily. Easily. 

What's more is that their buns are so creamy, so flowy, so instagrammable (but i didn't because eating takes precedent over photos), so affordable too. At $2.50, you rarely can get such value outside. Nice environment, quality bun, quality ingredients, buns made carefully with love, joy and pride.

Verdict time. Of the three flavours i've tried (signature custard, fresh cream, matcha), fresh cream is top. Other then that, the other flavours are on par, equally goood. Just that i preferred fresh cream because it was so yummy. Sweet but not too sickly sweet, light sweet. Aromatic, milk fragrant. 

Haiya just go eat okay. You need to eat at Hattendo at least once. Esp if you pride yourself as a foodie, this is a must try. If u are an instagrammer, come here and #ootd with the nice buns whatever too.

 

There's a queue after work too and i am seeing it sold out before my eyes. "1, 2, 3, 4... 7 custard left". And there's still seven people in the queue >.< 

Come during lunch. I felt the freshly ready buns were better than the ones i had after work. 

If you are thinking of buying some home, these buns need to be chilled and can be kept chilled up to 12 hours. And there is a purchase limit of 10 buns per customer.

I will try the remaining flavours soon. Promise.
