Likely to be takeaway-only

Currently, only three of Tai Cheong outlets have dine-in seats, at Holland Village, Changi Airport Terminal 3 and Takashimaya (the latter a stall serving hot food within the basement food court).

But the Bukit Panjang Plaza outlet, located near the FairPrice Finest supermarket, is likely to be a takeaway-only kiosk, as the same unit was previously occupied by takeaway pizza chain Pezzo and burrito joint Superitto. In August this year, the bakery also quietly opened an outlet at Holland Piazza (pictured), just steps away from its very first Singapore outlet at Holland Village’s Lorong Liput.

Expect egg tarts, of course

Tai Cheong has three flavours for its egg tarts, the Original ($2), Pandan ($2) and a new Black Sugar Boba ($2, check out our taste test here). We also pit Tai Cheong Bakery’s Original egg tart against nine other tarts in our recent ranking of 10 Hong Kong-style egg tarts — find out how it fared here.

Other than egg tarts, the takeaway bakery offers a selection of Hong Kong-style pastries like Durian & Cheese Tart ($3.90), Chicken Pie ($3), and Char Siew Pie ($3.50). We have reached out to Tai Cheong Bakery for more information on the new outlet’s opening.
