Man slicing the outer skins off bread outside bakery I was having duck rice at 琪利 along Paya Lebar Road, when I decided to buy some roti. The bakery is just beside the coffeeshop where 琪利 is. Too bad I did not get the name of the shop.
What I like about the bread here is that it is 'traditionally' baked and prepared - not much automation (think Gardenia/Sunshine). The only machine as far as I can see is the one used to slice the bread. I guess with a big order to fulfill, technology still comes in helpful most of the time! Besides this, most of the preparation of the loaves of bread is manually handled. For example, the hard and crispy outer covering of the freshly baked bread is manually sliced off by means of a long knife.
From my understanding, the bread has to be allowed to cool down for a specific period of time before the outer 'skins' can be sliced off and the 'skins' are sold at a 'per kilogram' cost - though I did not find out exactly how much.
The bread (half-loaf) costs SGD1.10 plain or SGD2.00 if you request for butter, jam, peanut butter, kaya, etc. to be applied to the slices.
