📍.sg
[NEW minimalist cafe with Jap-zen vibes, long queue is expected here✨]

Visited the weekend before no dine-in but to those planning to be/are fully vaccinated, do bookmark this once dine-in is resumed soon 🤗

I must say that .sg are off to a positive start with attractive brunch items such as the Creamy Chicken Scrambled Egg Croissant ($16), it's a first for cafes with flakey croissant covered with luscious texture scrambled egg topped with creamy chicken — it was appetising throughout but can get a little heavy 😋
While exploring their in-house desserts, interestingly they had 2 versions for Tiramisu (Original $7 & Kahlua $10). And BAM for their Kahlua, that alcohol was damn intense to our surprise with strong coffee and velvety mascarpone cream — definitely have someone to share if possible! ☺️

📍79 Owen Rd (Farrer Park), S218895. Open on Tues-Sun from 9am-6pm

📍12 Sixth Avenue - Nasi Lemak
[HALAL/ MUSLIM-OWNED]
 [Verdict: InTerrysting 👌🏻] Planning what to bungkus/ takeaway this weekend? If you stay in Holland/ Bukit Timah, give Sixth Avenue Nasi Lemak a try. Only open for breakfast, go early as it sells out by 10.30am to 11.00am on most days.

A standard plate of nasi lemak with fried chicken wing is $4.50. By the time I visited, they ran of out of ikan bilis (fried anchovies) - a core component of nasi lemak. So I settled for fried chicken wing, slightly deformed fried egg, sambal terung (eggplant sambal) and added a begedil (fried potato cutlet) for $1.

Using Basmati rice, the rice was reasonably fragrant and fluffy. There was a slight resemblance to Adam Road’s version so I guess it’s because of the rice.

Fried chicken wings were crispy and juicy yet not too oily. Certainly not the best I had but it made the mark. Eggplant was soft and tender and covered with a generous amount of dried shrimp and chilli paste. Begedil was lightly seasoned then fried till golden brown. Thankfully it wasn’t oily or mushy.

Enjoyed the sweet and piquant sambal chilli. But I don’t understand why they would charge more if you want an additional scoop of sambal.

Some nasi lemak can be very jelak (cloying). This wasn’t.

Come here if you’re around the area. Great breakfast option after your morning run/ hike at the nearby Rail Corridor or Bukit Timah Hill.

Available for takeaway and delivery on GrabFood and Deliveroo.

📍The Coastal Settlement
Perfect place for brunch, with a touch of vintage ambiance inside, lush green outside, and some appetising vegetarian options! Love the half n half vegetarian pizza, something that I always love. Also, finally got my hands on the physical MENU which I undeniably missed skimming through in the current contactless times. Look at those classic newspaper style MENU is the next picture.
Presently enjoyed the past with them there 💛

📍Whampoa Food Centre
Absolutely fell in love with bowl kway tiao soup from this stall at whampoa food centre. They usually sold out quite earlier in the morning. I was there around 9am, and the mee pok and mee kia was already sold out.

📍 King Of Fried Rice
King of Fried Rice has arrived at Chinatown. Located at the “Glutton’s Square” of Chinatown, find this amazing treat, a Din Tai Feng alike fried rice with pork cutlet, but only better because it’s fraction of the restaurant price. Shown here is a fried rice I didn’t have; XO fried rice with additional tobiko for just $1. Look at that insane amount! Nice to mix it into the fried rice for that extra textural play! I didn’t have to eat to know this is good!

Didn’t know they are also have another outlet at Sengkang Square Kopitiam! But I’ll fall back to the original at Golden Mile Complex!

📍The Bread Rack
Located next to the popular Soi 19 Wanton Mee at Space @ Kovan, is an artisanal bakery that specialises in sourdough bread and croissants.⁣
⁣
For their croissants, it’s made with a mix of sourdough and yeast that give them a very light tinge of sour that balances the buttery taste.⁣
⁣
The moment I entered the café, their Salted Caramel Cube Croissant ($4.80) immediately caught my attention.⁣
⁣
Filled with velvety vanilla cream and sea salt caramel, this cube croissant is topped with caramelised walnuts that give the pastry a good balance of sweet and salty while giving an enjoyable flaky, crunchy bite.⁣
⁣
I got greedy and ordered their Almond Croissant ($5) that came with sliced almond and icing sugar as toppings and filled with smooth, velvety almond cream, making the croissant light yet flavourful at the same time.⁣
⁣
Tip: Do get the staff to warm up the croissant to make it more enjoyable!⁣
⁣
I find their pricing is a bit on the higher side, but you are paying for the quality and their selection of bakes is perfect for a light breakfast or brunch.
⁣
📍The Bread Rack is located at 9 Yio Chu Kang Road, Space at Kovan, 01-55, Singapore 545523⁣
⏰ Opening Hours: Opens 10am to 4pm on Mondays to Thursday, 9am to 4pm on Fridays to Sundays. Closed on Wednesdays.⁣

📍MASA by Black Society
✨6/10
💸💸

This dimsum restaurant needs no introduction, you’ve probably seen their adorbs dimsum somewhere on IG!! A slang for the word Master of Black Society, it’s specialized in artisanal dimsum with a fun and creative twist while maintaining the traditional recipe. Overall the food here is all right, but it certainly looks better than it tastes. For yum cha dimsum, I’d still prefer Social Place any day!

📍Perch

Sakura Ebi Capellini is so yummy. It is garlicky yet diverse in flavour profile because of the bird’s eye chilli and the lemon. The prawns were grilled to perfection, having a firm and fresh bite. Really enjoyed the smooth texture of the capellini, it was light and it’s texture did not overpower the strong flavours🤝

The Local Duck Confit has to be my favourite because of how innovative the dish is. The usage of Orange Carrot Mousse and Carrot Tarragon Foam might repel some people as some do not enjoy the mix of savoury and fruity flavours but this dish worked out so well. The mousse and foam were lighter in taste which complimented the gamey nature of the duck. Really enjoyed how tender the duck was too.

The Carbonara from Perch is so authentic, made out of egg yolk. They use guanciale as their meat, an Italian cured meat usually made out of pork jowl or cheeks. The guanciale was salty, which went really well with the carbonara as I felt the carbonara was a little under seasoned. Tasted really mild at the start but the more I mixed and paired it with the guanciale, it went down the throat really well without it being too creamy or surfeit.

Grilled Beef Ribeye with Black Pepper Sauce is one of the offerings under the Asian Mains served in Perch. The doneness of the beef I chose was medium, which was perfectly cooked. The black pepper sauce was on the more peppery side which complimented well with the Japanese Jasmine Pearl rice. The addition of garlic chips and oyster mushroom mixed up the texture profile well, making the peppery sauce not too difficult to eat alone.

One of the most aesthetic desserts at Perch is definitely the Persimmon Sticky Toffee Pudding. The taste of the pudding was really strong with persimmon taste while the rum and raisin ice cream was mild in flavour and honestly tasted like vanilla. Not my favourite for sure but definitely not too

We tried the 𝑴𝒂𝒏𝒈𝒐 𝑳𝒚𝒄𝒉𝒆𝒆 𝑪𝒂𝒌𝒆 ($45) 🥭 which came with a glorious mango glaze and topped with some generous amount of mango and lychee fruits! The cake has a good texture and has layers of cream with bits of lychee flesh embedded within, giving a subtle fragrance to the cake 🍰

[MANHATTAN BAR]
Together with Mr BOM’s friends, we checked out this fancy Manhattan Bar hidden inside Regent Hotel. Lightly dimmed with a huge liquor rack showcasing their premium spirits 🤩

Manhattan Lobster Rolls ($30)
Butter poached lobster seasoned with citrus aioli and topped with tobiko roe. Appreciate that the lobster was super fresh and firm when paired with roe it had the added freshness and crunch. The citrus aioli was so appetizing though the squid ink bun was a tad too dry.

Chicken Shawarma Wraps ($24) 🏆
The crispy chicken was well marinated and super flavourful. We especially loved the chipotle aioli which definitely packed a punch with the slight spice. The pomegranate pearls were mellow but gave that surprise element when it popped in our mouths.

Harlem Nights ($25)
Not your usual Gin and Tonic as this tasted more like a Sangria. The Botanist Gin and Orange Bitters were rather mellow and the berries and mint overpowered the drink. Overall, a really palatable drink which is suited for people with low alcohol tolerance. This floral and refreshing drink comes with a wide variety of berries that made us slurping it in no time 😅

This bar is ranked 2nd in Asia and we definitely have our standards set high. The place was too dark and a little noisy for our liking. But the place is definitely grand enough for special occasions. The price points of food and drinks were a little not justified. But probably worth a try to enjoy a drink or so in such setting 🤗🤗

📍Manhattan Bar @ Regent Hotel
💰 $92.43
