Komugi

Komugi is a Japanese bakery with European baking sensibilities located on the lower ground floor of the Mid Valley Megamall. I had bookmarked this place prior to my trip to KL to visit. Upon finding it at Mid Valley, I was surprised at how small the space of this shop was compared with the Unilocal pictures.
Despite the limited space, they do have a lot of great baked goods here. Particularly breads and bun pastries. And the prices are extremely affordable. I bought a nama cheese pastry (RM3.90), which is one of their bestsellers and a loaf of the cranberry brioche (RM5.90). I really like both of these items. The cheese inside the pastry was soft and cream cheese like. While I liked the cranberry brioche much because it tasted good and was still soft even after a few days.
Having had similar baked goods in Japan, I found the selection at Komugi to be on par in terms of quality. If you are looking for Japanese style baked goods in KL, Komugi is one of the best places to go in town.

I love bakeries. And yes I have been in many and this one may be no different but I still love walking into them.
The location is very popular so trying to find a lot of things left late in the afternoon, may not be in the cards for you. You can find handmade cakes here which is pretty delicious. They also serve quite a few Japanese deserts so you get to try something different than at the regular bakeries.
Their products are fresh and always cooked there so you can always count of the quality of the food. The décor is quite appealing and the store well decorated and organized.

Komugi is one of the best bakeries from Midvalley.
What I love about this place is the fact that they have options for bread which is perfect baked. Of course they have many other bakery products, which are quite good. Even if from outside the place looks very expensive, the true is that the price is average. The great part is that everything is baked there and the bread is hot.
If you go after 19, you may not find so many products, because everything is sold out. So I recommend you to visit the place in the morning when everything is fresh.

Not really a huge fan of breads and pastries but Komugi has somehow made themselves reputable with their Japanese-​based sweet treats. They have an array of both sweet and savory delights to drool over. Prices here are affordable as most of the pastries here are less than RM10.
Some of their specials are the Namachoco Sand, which is a spongy cake layered with a creamy mousse, which comes in both Chocolate and Green Tea, and also their Signature Hanjuku Cheese, which is a decadent, pillowy, rich cheesecake. As I’m vegan, I got the verdict from my friend, who’s a master of sweets. The verdict is two thumb-​up. Though I don’t know if she really meant it or if she was buzzing from all those sugary cakes. It’s all fun and games till someone bounces off a wall into a sugary road of delusion.
Nonetheless, this bakery-​meets-​patisserie seems to have a reputation in baking worth recognizing!

I went to this bakery for lunch the other day since I didn’t feel like eating anything heavy. Plus, I thought that bread would be much healthier than fast food or rice. By the name, I assume that it is a Japanese bakery. The bakery has all types of bread. I like the variety they had.
The cleanliness of the place is also good. The workers are friendly and you can practically see the bakers «in action» as the kitchen is seen through. Even in the kitchen, it’s pretty clean. I can say that this is a good bakery in terms of cleanliness and service.
The bread, however, can be better. Just like many bakeries in Malaysia, you can hardly find bakeries that make their bread fresh and hot from the oven. Most of the bread has already been out for quite a while. But still, for those sweet breads, it’s okay if it’s not nice and hot in my opinion. The bread here is still good even with that slight downfall to it.

I’m very much a bread person. And this particular handmade Japanese bread cakes and confectioneries is always so eye pleasing and captivating.
They claim that their chefs bake everything daily to ensure freshness and they are all made from natural and premium ingredients. After having their bread countless times, I do agree to a certain degree that they do keep their quality at bay for me to keep coming back for more.
The price is a little steep as compared to your neighbourhood counterparts.

Located at the LG level of Mid Valley Mega Mall, this outlet is full of activity and full of go with energy. Trays of freshly baked breads and pastries were storming out the kitchen to replace the empty trays at the display.
Known for their Cookie Cream Puffs (RM4.80), this puff is filled with custard that are piped into upon purchase ensuring the highest and freshest quality.
Moving on to the middle of the bakery, a long table filled and placed strategically with breads of all kind from sweet to savory. Don’t get me started on the cakes, almost too pretty to be eaten.
I usually enter the bakery knowing what to get and often I am done much quicker than the rest of my family members. The see through glass kitchen provides a temporary entertainment while I wait on my family members.
Staffs are efficient and this is apparent when the line behind the cash register gets cleared quickly no matter how crowded the bakery is.
Priced cheaper than most bakeries, Komugi does not cut down on quality despite a cheaper price.

If you are a French Prisian lover then this is the place to go! you will find french bread at different types. croissants and different types of cake. I absolutely love the diversity of the bakery options at this place.
I love the feeling and the smell and how this place truly reminded me of home sweet home :)

Japanese food has really made quite a presence in our community. Sushi eateries had been popping up like mushrooms, the latest being the oh-​so-​exclusive Nobu. And to my delight, Japanese pastries is quietly creeping its way through.
The latest I got to know of is Komugi. I wanted to get my sister some donuts (one for her and the other 11 for me) when imagine my surprise when I found out that our donut haven Dunkin’ Donuts has been replaced by Komugi! Blasphemy!
I decided to check it out anyways. It wasn’t half that bad actually. It’s obvious that the store was very golden from the outside. The spotlights that they used are golden in color that perfectly matched the wooden shelving displays and the golden brown pastries and breads. It was like Buddha retired and decided to pursue his passion of bread making.
The shop smelled like a good ol’ pastry shop and the cakes looked nothing less than scrumptious. I am not too familiar with Japanese desserts myself but there was what looked like a cupcake but it had a smooth top almost like a Pao. It looked delicious but I still had my heart on donuts, I mean my sister still insisted on donuts. #fatties

Sweets, Chocolate, Desserts !
That’s a place where you come after a good dinner, when you want to just put that cherry on top!
You wont be disappointed with whatever you try, but Baum’s main speciality is Baumkuchen.
It is German-​origin ring cakes, which really take a long time to prepare! However, if they are done well — the taste is just glorious!
They offer a variety of choices my very favourite is Baum with a centres of chocolate, but if you would like to try something more exotic, go for the green tea centre!
