About this place
One review of a croissant eaten soon after purchase recalls its crisp, many-layered pastry and the way the buttery flavour opens up. At Katane Bakery, you might start with a croissant, then choose another bread to go with a meal.
If you are unsure which bread to pick, options include a chewy wholemeal loaf made with stone-milled flour and a simple, rounded hard toast loaf. There is also French bread made with a long fermentation, a good choice if you are after something with a straightforward flavour. For a filled option, the jambon fromage sandwich combines house-made ham and cheese, while the ciabatta tuna comes with tuna, tomato and pickled onion. Panini choices include curry-paste chicken with cheese, and mushrooms with cheese.
For breakfast, the Paris Breakfast set comes with 4 kinds of bread, a drink, butter, jam and a small juice. You can also add a mini salad or cup of soup. It makes a leisurely start to the day, with several breads to try. One way to enjoy it is to choose your bread at the bakery on the 1nd floor, then eat in the café downstairs. Coffee is available in light or dark roasts, so you can pick a cup to go with a croissant or build breakfast around the bread.
