Levain Boulangerie Patisserie

I was craving for a hearty breakfast on a Saturday morning. So we decided to head down to KL, to taste this scrumptious pastries in Levain Boulangerie Patisserie. Since after reading Jean's blog reviews on this patisserie, I have been dying to visit them.

This patisserie is tucked away in the quiet street of Jalan Delima, same row as Noble House chinese restaurant and next to Fukuya Japanese Restaurant. The outlook of Levain Boulangerie looks like a classy french bungalow. Levain Boulangerie Patisserie is owned and managed by Beryl’s Chocolate & Confectionery Sdn Bhd.

Already packed with customers on a Saturday at 11am. There are 3 dining areas: indoor dining area, outdoor al-fresco dining area, and a dining room upstairs. We like the al-fresco dining.

Variety of breads, but some were sold out! But they will restock them, since they will be baking fresh bread all day long. I can imagine the kitchen must be very busy.

Varieties of cakes!! I wanna try'em all!

Turkey and Egg RM3.20

These are super NICE and YummieEE!

From top right clockwise: Mini turkey ham and egg sandwich (RM5), Mushroom and turkey crispy pizza (RM4.80), Mango cheese tart (RM4.30), Peanut butter french (RM2.80).

You can check the prices here. For the below box of mix mooncakes with mochi and jellies, cost about RM53, now Buy 1 box Free 1 box in Jusco in One Utama!! Not sure the other outlet having the same promo, but today I was at One Utama to catch the movie preview "Wall Street". Before going into the cinema, I grabbed 2 boxes, and free another 2 boxes. One box only RM25. There are other bigger box with different price also having the same promotion.

Top: Magazine - 4 pieces of french choc and fresh belgium butter in the croissant.
Right: Chilli Foccacia - A traditional Italian bread with bits of chopped chili, black sesame seeds and herbs

Am havin lunch w my besties, Joan and Cher @ Empire Subang Gallery today. Before we decided on where to eat, we were already spying on the UFO's, one of our latest bread obsession @ The Loaf. Oh Thank God, they are there! 2 full baskets of UFO on the bread counter. It was completely sold out when I was there last few weeks. So this time, am gonna make sure I have a handful. Well...i only get 5 la...not so greedy. One lady next to me took 10 of them. Tsk tsk tsk....

Anyway, The Loaf having some promotion for this month. If you are a member, you only pay 99cents per UFO, normal price is RM2.80. One member get to buy 10 UFOs per day only. Chili Foccacia - RM1.99 after discout, Magazine - RM2.85 after 50% discount, lucky my fren has member card, so I don't need to pay so much. All total paid: RM10.30

Finally got my bite on the UFO, I thought the outer layer look pretty hard texture will be hard as a rock. But no, it's not! It's medium soft and take one bite of the bread with choc chips and almond nuts is so addictive, I so wanted to eat the rest of the UFO at one go...but i have to control, gona keep some for my guy. haha. I like the taste of it, well balance of sweet and with a hint of bitter taste. Can't wait to try the rest of other different breads.
