The secret is out: Baker J at Crimson Alabang offers an impressive selection of viennoiseries. For those needing a little translation, the French term refers to "things of Vienna, Austria," specifically in food. According to Cordon Bleu, it is the “bridge between pâtisserie and French bread.” Typically, it includes croissant and brioche, as well as pain au chocolat, pain aux raisins, and more.
At Baker J, the wide array of artisan bread is made by hand and perfected by Crimson Hotel Filinvest City’s Executive Pastry Chef Nicolas Pasdeloup. With decades’ worth of culinary expertise, Chef Nicolas brings another dimension to Baker J.
Available daily, artisanal bread and pastries are the stars of the menu. Here, Baker J shares a guide to its range of French delectables:

Sourdough Bread
With sourdough bread, it contains no yeast, milk, oils, eggs, or sweeteners. Instead, this bread uses a fermented “starter,” helping break down gluten. In effect, it makes the bread’s interior softer and easier to digest. For its sourdough, Baker J uses a 2-year-old starter made with a mixture of mango, calamansi, apple, and raisin.
Also available at Baker J are Country Sourdough Bread, Beetroot Sourdough Bread, and Whole Wheat Sourdough Bread.
Mixed Seeds Loaf
Baker J’s signature Mixed Seeds Loaf is loaded with sesame seeds, linseeds, pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds, and oatmeal. It’s a tasty source of fiber and protein.
Dried Fruits and Nuts Loaf
Baker J’s Dried Fruits and Nuts Loaf goes well with cheese, cold cuts, and wine, making it perfect to go with your charcuterie board. Made with water infused with dried fruits and black tea, this loaf gives a deep and slightly fruity flavor.
