I was meeting my friend for lunch and it was her birthday.
I bought a cake for her and urgently needed a place to eat the cake.
I called up La Marmite in the morning and made reservation for that afternoon.
I asked the manager whether there is any cake cutting fee, she nicely said she could waive it for us (as we were there for lunch and not during dinner time).
The restaurant is situated at "Cru" old spot, but the restaurant carries a complete new outlook. White tableclothes, white dinnerware, but is causal enough where you can were flip-flop and enjoy a nice weekend brunch.
The cake was melting in the summer heat. We asked the waiter whether they mind if we eat our cake first then order from the meal. They were absolutely fine with us with our request. They were super nice and attentive (but not over the top). They served us water, offered us candles, lighter, knife etc. It was impossible not to tip them.
We ordered grapefruit juices, 3 egg omelette and the chicken with pasta.Grapefruit juice was well-chill and 100% fresh.
The fries were crunchy and salad were crisp. The omelette was well-cook with melted cheese in the middle.
The chicken pasta dish looked quite ordinary - and this dish is more than it appears. The chicken was cook well - tender (pretty good for Western-chicken standard), the pasta at the bottom was delicious! Cook al dente and it was infused with very good cheese. The sauce was very unique (tasted kinda like blue-cheese....). Thumb-up!A great place for brunch on the weekend ~
Will need to try their adorable bread and little croissant baskets next time!
