20 Artisanal bakeries in KL and PJ for dine-in, takeaway and delivery
For the loaf of carbs
Next to rice and noodles, bread is one type of carb we just can’t live without. Besides providing sustenance, it’s a popular type of comfort food that we can appreciate at any time of the day—breakfast, lunch, tea, dinner, and every hour in between.
Not all bread is made equal though, which is why we’ve taken it upon ourselves to hunt down the best artisanal bakeries around KL and PJ that are available for dine-in, takeaway, pickup and/or delivery. Whether it’s croissants, sourdough, Danish pastry, or baguettes you knead, these places will have your daily bread sorted (no bun intended).
