Croissants, such as the Kenari Nut Twice Baked Croissant (S$7) and Sourdough Croissant (S$4), will also be available.

What are pastries without coffee? Local brand Maxi Coffee will be offered here, including a selection of specialty beers, like Ijen CM Pink Honey Coffee, made with fruity beans sourced from East Java.

When asked why he decided to collaborate with Air, Chef Matin replied, “I’ve known Chefs Matt and Will for a long time and we’ve always talked about doing something together. Now that they both have a project in Singapore, and part of Air’s focus is to collaborate and build community, we are launching Sunrise together, as part of the upcoming Sunrise-Sunset initiative on their lawn . It’s also the perfect opportunity to bring back Le Matin pastries.

8days.sg asks Matin the reason for the closure of Le Matin at Ion Orchard (it has since been taken over by The Assembly Ground Cafe, owned by parent company Benjamin Barker who was once co-owner of Le Matin), but he refuses to give more details.

“We prefer to focus on the present and the future. Our goal remains the same: to bring delicious pastries to the people of Singapore,” he says diplomatically.

He specifies that even if the Ion Orchard du Matin café is closed, the pastry brand still exists.

While there is no specific end date for Air CCCC and Chef Matin’s breakfast partnership, Air’s PR rep tells us there is no confirmation if it will be a temporary or permanent thing.

If you’d like to indulge in Matin’s pastries outside of Air, follow Matin’s Instagram account to follow his monthly pop-ups at various restaurants for his new dessert concept Apres, which he launched this month at the bar Japanese Rappu. At this dessert pop-up, Matin serves a 13-course menu starting at S$148 per person, including original creations like Bone Marrow Gelato and Poached Lobster with Oats & Blueberries.

The chef says a December pop-up is also in the works.

Chef Matin’s pastries are available at Air CCCC, 25B Dempsey Road, Singapore 249918. Friday to Sunday only, 8:00 a.m. while stocks last. Tel: 8228 1528
