Crown Breakfast from Crown Bakery & Cafe – Crown Puff Pastry centrepiece with sunny-side up egg, with red wine-braised oxtail, chicken sausage, Canadian back bacon, sautéed mushrooms, baked tomato and a side of mesclun with extra virgin olive oil and balsamic vinaigrette. While I have my reservations about the inclusion of…
Customised Bacon Eggs Breakfast from Tête-à-Tête Café with added sausages and mushrooms. The bacon eggs were quite delicious, fusing together harmoniously such that with each bite, you taste both the egg (yolk) and that familiar, reassuring bacon fragrance and saltiness. You can tell with one bite of both the pork sausage…
French toast breakfast from The Laneway Market – fluffy eggy brioche French toast, bacon, chicken chipolatas, baked beans and salad. The french toast was fantastic, thoroughly eggy and one of the eggiest I’ve ever tried. The chipolatas were tender and hotdog-esque, whilst the bacon was like a crispy pig cracker.…
Slow roasted chicken breast with bacon and maple cream on meringue waffle from Grin Affair. The waffles tasted very old school and neighbourhoody (in a good way), while the tender chicken probably had a good midday swim in a hotdog brine pool before arriving. Bacon and maple were rather calefare-esque.…

Breakfast waffle with maple syrup, fried egg, choice of streaky bacon and added smoked salmon. The waffles were essentially McDonald’s hotcakes who accidentally walked into a waffle iron. They were buttery, salty and slightly crispy on the outside. The twirly pig meat was an appealing mix of chewy and crispy,…
Prawn and bacon aglio olio with mushrooms and chilli padi. If this pasta were human it’d be a feisty, earthy and well-bosomed farm girl. The aglio olio is aggressively fragrant, smelling smokily porky with a strong hint of mushroom. The bacon here isn’t the crispy sort but of the chewy…
Smoked Salmon Hash – pan roasted bacon and potato hash, cold smoked Norwegian salmon, soft-centred free range hen’s egg, basil dressing, baby spinach and grated parmesan. Essentially a tasty valentine to salt. 3.8/5 Sin Lee Foods Blk 4 Jalan Bukit Ho Swee #01-164 Singapore 162004
French toast with sautéed apple, raisins, house cured bacon, and maple cream. The French toast was a gift from heaven – warm, fat and fluffy, like a Japanese Spitz puppy. The apple maintained its integrity well, being warm, crunchy, intensely sweet and just a tad sour. The bacon was so…
