Update: Burnt Ends just opened a bakery at Dempsey Hill, where you don’t have to buy a dozen just to eat one doughnut. Take note of their opening hours though. Also, if you want to snag a doughnut, you’re going to have to wake up super early to grab one — and I mean 8:00am early. It gets sold out pretty quickly, so don’t expect you can grab a doughnut and coffee in the afternoon. Otherwise, you’d be better off getting a dozen at their take away bakery at Teck Lim.

While I was waiting for my table at Burnt Ends, I couldn’t help but notice an onslaught of people climbing a narrow staircase.

Reminds me of Cafe Corridor in Hong Kong. I missed that tiny coffee shop so much.

What could they be doing there?

Patrons coming out, carrying eco-friendly paper bags, a superior and satisfied look on their faces. As if they knew a secret I didn’t know.

Of course I knew. It’s those damn brioche doughnuts people have been raving about as the best brioche doughnuts in Singapore.

I was going to grab a few after eating, but the server politely told me I had to preorder in advance. It wasn’t a bakery where you could just grab and go.

So immediately, I booked my brioche doughnuts, and lo and behold, it had a week long wait.

A half-dozen brioche doughnuts at Burnt Ends would cost at least $18. Assorted ones would be around $24, and nutella and coffee flavored brioches are at $30. So are the ones filled with Tahitian Vanilla Cream, which I ordered. The drawback to this whole preorder thing is that you have to spend at least $30.

These should be the best brioche doughnuts I ever had in my life if I had to go through the trouble of preordering and trekking all the way to Teck Lim Road just for doughnuts. And what I meant was it had to top my experience at Bread Ahead in Borough Market in London.

These were one of the fluffiest doughnuts I had. The Vanilla cream was dainty, never too sweet or too much stuffed inside.

Best brioche doughnuts in Singapore? Maybe. But sad to say, it wasn’t the best brioche doughnuts I ever had in my life. Bread Ahead still tops my list.
