joel robuchon le salon pastry shop
there are 3 malls next to our hotel puli at jingansi station. ^^
reel mall is right by the hotel, and it connects underground past the metro station to crystal gallery. lippo centre is across the road.
after a good hotel breakfast, we walked over to reel mall. joel robuchon is located here, and le salon, joel robuchon’s pastry shop, was the first shop as we entered reel mall..
JR just closed shop in sentosa..chinese much richer & prices no doubt higher than singapore!

there was a food hal at B2 of reel mall, with good standard food specialty stalls..
