Tartine Bakery Bukchon: Trying the Viral 'Slab' Bread!


The 'Slab' is the hottest item these days!
I heard it sells out in 30 seconds on Kurly Market.
I wondered what could be so special about this bread, but apparently it's great for making sandwiches, and the bread itself has something special.
It's sourdough, so it's easy to digest and feels healthy.
This is Tartine Bakery Bukchon.
It was relatively quiet on a weekday afternoon.
No waiting, and there were tables available!
They don't have a huge variety of bread, but you can feel the expertise in each one!
They have pastries with butter, such as croissants, pain au chocolat, and apple pie.
They also have fougasse and baguettes.
There were plenty of Slabs on display, so I was able to buy one easily.
A Slab half size is ₩7,900, and a whole size is ₩13,900.
Even the half size is quite large.
They also have tarts and sandwiches.
They even have some simple merchandise.
I bought a half-size Slab and decided to have a chausson aux pommes for lunch at the bakery.
I thought 'pommes' meant apple, so it must be an apple pie, but it had cream inside!
Chausson aux pommes: ₩7,500
It's so hard to find a good apple pie these days, but this one is unique and delicious.
The apples were perfectly cooked.
It's been a while since I've been to a bakery that feels like they put so much effort into their products.
