普諾麵包坊 忠孝店

📍Located in Daan District, Taipei City (near Zhongxiao Dunhua MRT Station)
Originally a popular bakery situated in the Shin Kong Hotel, it is always bustling with crowds upon arrival. 🤓

This bakery is a family favorite, and despite the general price hikes in bakeries nowadays, Puno offers generous portions at reasonable prices! Every time I visit, I am attracted by the variety of breads and end up carrying home a bunch. 😝

I highly recommend Puno's traditional breads, such as scallion bread, pork floss bread, and marble bread (unfortunately, I didn't get any this time). They preserve the simple, delicious flavors, and one piece is extremely filling!

Besides bread, their cakes—though I rarely buy them—are also quite famous! In addition to traditional Taiwanese sponge cakes, they have creatively shaped cakes that resemble sushi 🍣 and fish heads 🐟, which are very unique!

Items purchased this time:
🥛 Milk Puff Pastry ($43):
Layer upon layer of soft, flaky pastry combined with a rich milk filling, it's a staple that I have repurchased several times.

🫐 Blueberry Cheesecake ($55):
The blueberry cheesecake filling on top is very generous! It has a pudding-like texture and I highly recommend it.

🧈 Pineapple Milk Puff ($40):
This milk puff is quite hefty! The filling is abundant and has a rich texture, making it very satisfying.

Additionally, I bought two other bread items, but I didn't take photos of them; here are the prices for reference:
Grape Roll ($45), Ham and Cheese Bread (two pieces) ($48).
