A few months ago I tried coming on a saturday afternoon and somehow this place was closed. Tried my luck again last saturday after my driving lesson and voila it was open yay. I love carbs. I love bread.

Environment:
Pretty tight. There are 2 tables of 4 and the rest are single bar seats, with another counter top against the wall sitting around 4. In total there's around 16 seats (max)?

Service:
Staff: friendly, eager to explain the menu. I was slightly confused when I stepped inside coz I didn't quite know how and where to order..or whether they'll come to take your order. So you pay up front like at McDonalds near the door. Octopus payment available.

Food:
There are 4 types of sandwiches affectionately named, MOO (i cringed), house-cured salmon, pork belly (oink..?
) and funghi porcini. You can add a salad, tea by Mariage Freres or an espresso for $25.

I ordered a lunch set consisting of a
Funghi Porcini sandwich + mushroom bisque $59.

Very hot, served in a paper cup which was huge. Thoughts: thick, slightly too peppery, and not fragrant enough. I couldn't smell the truffle aroma which should've been throwing itself at me. Couldn't really taste much mushroom in fact. Perhaps a drop or two of truffle oil would do the trick. More sauteed, blitzed onions. and a bit of garlic. Needs a touch more flavour. It didn't hit the spot. The great thing about the soup is that it didn't get cold quickly. It was evenly hot and stayed hot for a long while!
It's nice having something wet-ish to wash the sandwich down, gulp. Another good thing - not overbearingly creamy. Cream would give the soup a much smoother texture but I will not be able to stomach the sandwich afterwards, at all. I couldn't even finish this one. 1/3 leftover.

Which was, essentially, a baguette, but oh what a delightful little bun it was! I would like to think of it as a cousin of the baguette. Shape was baguette-like but the surface wasn't as tough and hard and crumbly as a normal baguette. The body was soft and fragrant. Yes, my mouth was happy with the senations. And i loved the butts of the bun hehee you know, either end. Crunchy. But I was rather disappointed with the fillings. The pate in the middle was not moreish due to lack of shroom quality. As if some of the soup was dolled into the roll. there was a piece of lettuce lining the bun so that the mushroom doesn't get the bread all soggy.

Conclusion:
A bit of a let-down re: funghi porcini sandwich but I will return to try the others. Pork belly sounds good.
