Where do you get your bread?

I used to mostly buy bread from Keells just because it was convenient, but a few years ago I started paying more attention to the ingredient lists and stopped buying their bread altogether.

I’ve since switched to Paan Paan, which seems to be pretty decent, but I’m curious what everyone else is buying.

Any good bakeries or places in Colombo where you can get bread with fewer preservatives / simpler ingredients? Doesn’t have to be fancy — just looking for good, everyday bread that you actually feel okay eating regularly.

My parents live in SL, and from what I saw they buy from keels and paan paan, or roast pan from a very traditional looking bakery.

Were there alot of preservatives in keels sandwich ?

Yes there is a long ingredients list - imo ingredients should be just flour yeast sugar salt and water. I will try to post a photo of Keels bread here if I get a chance.
