Cinnamon French Toast from The Halia (Singapore Botanic Gardens) – fresh seasonal berries, white chocolate sauce, Iranian pistachio. The moisture-challenged bread was a non-starter, thankfully made more pleasant by the thick white chocolate sauce which when tasted on its own revealed its happily sweet nature but when applied to the…
On Cloud Nine Waffle from Revelry – lemon curd, toasted marshmallows, candy floss and vanilla ice cream on Belgian waffle. The waffle was crisp and airy with a slight burntness to it, and there was a distinct air of Sahara desert to the concept that neither the sweet and slightly…
“Ang Moh” Breakfast from Collective Brewers – salad, grilled mushrooms, tomatoes, chicken sausage, bacon, brioche and scrambled eggs. The juicy grilled mushrooms seem to have been partially cross-bred with enoki mushrooms, whilst elsewhere the bacon had a stern crunch, the scrambled eggs had a soft and buttery middle and the…

The waffle was sweet and soft like a bunny’s cottontail butt, whilst the grilled streaky bacon had both the salty, crispy edges of bacon and a hammy body so you essentially get a boinking…
Thick toast with smoked salmon from Craftsmen Specialty Coffee – thick toast, smoked salmon, guacamole, 2 eggs, sprouts, and roasted almond nuts with chipotle mayo. It started to feel like there was enough dough action here to feed an entire PCF Kindergarten class but thankfully the curry-ish chipotle mayo, so…
Kabocha and cinnamon French cubes from Brew Maison. Despite looking very much like monster blood, the cinnamon-perfumed thick pumpkin gloop is decidedly more weak than freak, barely impacting the taste of the somewhat eggy cubes trapped near the entrance of the bread prison. The inmates beneath, safe from the pumpkin…
