Songdo has gained a lot of decent bakeries. That seems to be the vibe of the new towns these days.

Mill Bridge

I was walking past and heard they sold rye bread, so I went in.

Inside

Small, but a nicely put-together atmosphere.

Rye bread

Who would have thought a place like this would sell 100% rye bread.. I tried it, and it turned out to be rye bread of a satisfying quality (not gummy, with a slight sourness running through it).

Rusks

The breads

They all look good.

Sourdough

The grain sourdough was baked crisp on the outside and nutty on the inside, a flavour I can wholeheartedly recommend. Maybe it is because I am getting older, but I am growing fond of this scorched-rice kind of nuttiness..

Anna and Bread

This place is famous for its rye bread too, so I dropped by, but it had all sold out that day.

Breads like these

I would like to come back here some day as well.

Shuhet Bake Shop

This place looks seriously high-level too. Songdo seems to have become a battleground for bread.
