Gourmet food label The Providore will open their second outlet The Providore Deli & Bakery in two stages by mid-August. The deli will carry a range of cheese, charcuterie and antipasti, as well as dine-in and takeaway deli platters alongside sandwiches and the label's in-house offerings. Sharing the space is The Pat and Stick's ice cream stall, which is famous for their ice cream sandwiches. The bakery will open by mid-August and carry a range of European-style freshly-baked breads and pastries.
Meanwhile, Pan Pacific's Pacific Marketplace has rolled out an interesting range of five savory muffins ($5-7 each) with flavors like Chicken Run made with chicken, rice wine and garlic chives; The Hulk, a vegetarian muffin with creamy mushrooms and a spinach crust; and (our personal favorite) Krrish, an Indian-inspired curry potato muffin simmered with classic Indian spices.
