Toast tailoring $118 I ordered a Sourdough toast with Greek Yogurt spread and chose Soft boiled egg for topping one and avocado (+$10) for topping two. We had to wait twenty minutes for our food to arrive. It was rather busy but I still expect them to keep up with the service. The sourdough is grilled well with a crisp exterior and soft interior. Chewy with their distinct sourness too. Although the second piece of toast is rather small compared to the first. The Greek yogurt is tangy and creamy with a sweet aftertaste of honey. Nice portion too. The two soft boiled egg is not cut beforehand so I had to cut it to make it more photogenic. Moreover, it seems rather undercooked for a soft boiled egg as the whites are not fully cooked but half of the yolks are fully cooked so I don’t know what to make of that 😐 There is no seasoning whatsoever on the eggs, not even a simple dash of salt and pepper for flavor, resulting in bland and boring eggs. The avocado arrived in two parts. Some as a mash and some sliced into a circle. First off, there was an avocado pit in the mash which when I confronted the (female) staff, she just brushed it over and said “yeah ok…”. Also, the mash was very sour due to the lemon juice but also very brown?? So the acid clearly didn’t prevent enzymic browning or perhaps it was left for too long. Secondly, the circle of avocado was hiding the brown, rotten flesh. It disgusted me so much I asked to change the topping of this toast to pumpkin. When the (female) waitress was changing my plates, the soft boiled egg toast was left alone on the counter on the second floor for a good five minutes before she gave it back to me on a smaller plate. I know that leaving food unattended on a deserted area is a rather huge offense in a restaurant and this clearly shows the lack of knowledge and/or care this waitress has. However, after a while the pumpkin arrived. The pumpkin is sliced into chunks and baked before being chilled. It was not too cold but not ambient, it was refreshing. Very creamy and starch too which paired well with the tangy bread. It is also unseasoned which results in a mild natural sweetness but very one dimensional. I also want to note that all their breads are from Bakehouse 🥴 The other option of Fig & Walnut pretty much gave it away. —— —— 推介 🤷♀️💬 Overall, loved the bread and spread. Only some toppings are good. I saw many people ordering the smoked salmon, egg white with crab and chicken breast so perhaps I will try that next time. But the price for this toast is way too much for the quality and they also demand service charge for two pretty underwhelming waiters. Even after an unsatisfactory meal, I still want to come back to see if it was a one-time thing. 🗓 Revisit? ✅⭕️ / ❎ …查看更多
