On your next weekend, skip the pricey cafes and venture to The Bagel Brunch instead, a new bagel kiosk that’s opened near Buona Vista MRT Station! 65 Best Cafes In Singapore You Must Try Image credit: Xuan Yi Wee Previously a home-based business, the bagel specialty shop is now a brick-and-mortar kiosk that offers affordable bagel sandwiches for takeaway. Image credit: @thebagelbunchsg For a freshly-baked Plain Bagel, Sesame Bagel, or Cheddar Bagel, you will be set back just $4. From there, you can pick and choose your desired toppings at additional costs to DIY a bagel sandwich! Image credit: @thebagelbunchsg Alternatively, bagel sandwiches are priced from $7.90 for the Classic Breakfast flavour: five-spice bacon, egg, cheese, and pickled red onions. For something more indulgent, get The Bagel Brunch ($9.90), which includes hashbrowns and scallion cream cheese! Image credit: @thebagelbunchsg Another popular pick is Lox of Love ($13.90), starring smoked salmon, plum furikake, pickled onions, fresh tomatoes, and scallion cream cheese. There’s even an Asian-inspired Korean Fried Chicken ($12.90) bagel with spicy fried chicken, daikon slaw, and seaweed, which sounds like a flavour bomb. The Bagel Bunch is right outside the Buona Vista MRT Station Circle Line exit. Do note that the store closes at 5pm on weekdays and 1pm on weekends, so if you’re planning a trip here, make sure you visit early!
