O bread my bread

I'm a big fan of BreadTalk at Q-Mart but I've picked my favourites (croissants, croissants, croissants) and stuck to them. I've glanced once or twice in the direction of the breads but always considered it a bit obscene to have to pay a 100 bucks or more for, you know, bread, and usually scoffed and walked past.

But a couple of weeks ago the spirit was weak and the flesh was rather willing and I found myself picking up the Sesame Walnut bread despite its Rs 135 price tag. It disappeared I know not how and so I picked up another lot the day before.

This, good people, is an excellent bread. Soft without being crumbly, textured without being a mouthful of walnuts or sesame, the veriest hint of sweet. So good I've been driven to posting about it.

I've spent the past three days eating it with a hunk of cheese. I've rounded off my dinner with that and I'm already thinking of a midnight snack of more of the same.
