Sunny

Green croissants danish pastries. Unless it is not pistachio (for some reason), one would be keen on entertaining it. Probably because pistachio, there is not much of a cross with French or Denmark, the mastermind behind biscotti, gelato, macaron.

  
Pain Aux Matcha (SGD 1.90)

These were not. Matcha, chiseling the sanity level off by a bit. Lain side by side, depart from a mystical Orient where viennoiseries are neutral green, embark onto european legacies of the caramelized brown.



Pain aux raisin basically translates to raisin bread. Pain au(x) raisin or chocolat, they are actually exchangeable with the croissant. The only defining feature is superficially their shapes, swirly and twirled also snail bread or escargot for the raisin, and rod-like and a roll with pieces inside for the chocolate. Raised and crescent, or horn-shaped for the croissant. Cinnamon-dusted and it becomes danish(?).  
 

The pain aux matcha, or matcha bread is a trail of matcha cream holding the pastry together, instead of air gaps with butter and milk where the raisins are supposed to be. The growing grass green-filling has a bitter taste to it, hopeful like extra dark chocolate of higher cocoa content which the enthusiasts will enjoy. 

P.S. The red bean bits sprinkled over add a texture of sandy and chewy to the pastry overall. Or kaya, there is too much affiliation with kaya and bread. Matcha, imagine matcha everyday, it could behave like kaya
