Food and beverage
This cafe serves quite many desserts; hence the choices are limited for those who expect a full dinner.
All-day breakfast $63
All-day breakfast is my all-time favourite. As stated on the menu, this breakfast included German sausage, scrambled egg, bacon, baked beans, waffle, salad and a drink. The scrambled egg was pleasant- smooth, creamy and yolky.
I expected its bacon were those long ones that had been dried and cured, whereby one could clearly see slices of fat adhering to the meat. This bacon looked more like sandwich ham. Less fat; but slightly disappointed. The sausage was juicy.
The meatiness of the breakfast was lightened by the tomato and lettuces which were dressed in vinegar refreshingly.
Actually I could not imagine how waffle could fuse well with salty food. To me, waffle (and crepe) always appear as a dessert with fruits and ice cream. Having spread the butter over it, the slightly sweetened waffle tasted good as expected, and had a nice crispy crust and was soft inside. I sliced the sausage and ate together with a square of waffle- not bad.
For drink, I ordered Jasmine. It was just from Lipton- hence didn't upload the photo.
Vegetarian $59
My vegetarian friend V chose this set, which included poached egg, cherry tomato, asparagus, mushroom, baked beans, waffle, salad and drink. V opined it was good. I could see that when the poached egg was cut, the yolk gently spread out.
Orange Chiffon Cake $33
I liked the dried slice of orange, which was slightly hard and sweetened (and tasted like lemon?). The cake was fluffy. Honey crunch, almond and chopped pistachio were sprinkled, adding a crunchy texture to the dessert. Quite nice! Overall/ next?
The service was normal. The waitress was willing to refill the hot water for my Lipton jasmine. However the air-conditioner was a bit too strong- our food get cooled down not long after they were served.
Actually we wanted to try the stacks of waffle dessert which were so alluring. However we had already had a waffle for our all day breakfast- would be too much to have waffle for both our main course and desserts. So I save it for my next visit!
