  Guys/gals,
  
  Which is better?
  Personally, I think BreadTalk is over-rated. Prefer the bread in Crystal Jade.

  Crystal Jade Cakery breads, definitely!!! They used to have this Spicy Prawn bun that they discontinued. I was sooo sad!
  
  I agree that Bread Talk is over-rated and so expensive. What I pay for one miserable bun, I can get a whole loaf for. I only like those Bread Talk breads with pandan leaf wraps with fillings like sambal ikan bilis, hare bi (minced dried prawns), etc. They have them only in selected outlets. I used to go to Centrepoint for them but that branch closed down.
  
  Well, Crystal Jade breads are also priced the same way but you get value for money because they're nice, and generous with the ingredients. So, as far as I'm concerned, they win hands-down over Bread Talk.
  
  I like Four Leaves too. Used to buy the buns at their outlet at Tangs Basement. Now, they're no longer there and their branches are out of the way. They discontinued a few of my favourite buns too, though their newer ones are also pretty nice.

  I like Four Leaves but if given the choice between Crystal Jade and BreadTalk, I will go for Crystal Jade over BreadTalk.
  
  Anyway, in response to joker's questions about any Crystal Jade Cakery in the north, the latest one has opened at Causeway Point in Woodlands. It's situated next to the Crystal Jade restaurant. I think they chopped up a bit of their restaurant to fit in the Cakery.

  BreadTalk has started losing its touch. Boom too fast, fall even faster. What issit with Rotiboy at china square har, so many people one? I suaku, I just came back to singapore.
