Thai Big Breakfast from Soi 60 – 2 organic fried eggs, house made pork sausages, spicy ground pork, roasted tomatoes, toast. What makes this delightfully hearty and generously-portioned Thai breakfast different from your garden variety brunch is the minced pork – which soaks lazily with its baconly siblings in the thick…
Savoury waffle with grilled streaky bacon and scrambled egg with Craftsmen sauce from Craftsmen Specialty Coffee. 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…
Kaisendon (Deluxe) set from Ken Japanish Restaurant. From the urghsome half-cooked egg that straddled the texture between half-boiled egg and cooked egg for Maggi Mee, to the two octopus sashimi slices which were so unmanageable that I felt like that guy in Korean thriller Oldboy having to swallow the gooey…
Flaming Hot Tonkotsu Ramen from Kanshoku Ramen with added ajitama egg and corn. Essentially Korean ramyun noodles which have undergone a Japanese stylistic makeover and a decidedly non-Japanese incendiary flavour blast. Flamethirsty folks from all levels of gutsy on the safety spectrum will enjoy this – the lily-livered slow-sippers will…
Bacon & Egg Cup from OMB. One (or two) of these satisfying, greasy bacon goblets, which would explode in your mouth like a cherry bomb of egg love, should sufficiently fulfil your week’s brunch needs. 3.5/5 This was a hosted meal, courtesy of OMB. OMB (Oh My Bacon) 7 Dunlop…
Huevos Benedictos from Super Loco – poached eggs, toasted muffin, pork carnitas, chipotle hollandaise, and pickled onion. The pork carnitas was tasty, spicy and refreshingly not diced pork cubes-esque as similar pork products can be, while the chipotle hollandaise was manageably light. The poached eggs, however, had yolks that can…
Kimakari gyoza from Takumen. Essentially a quail egg-headed and heavily pregnant xiao long bao which erupts a powdery, Myojo-esque Japanese curry. 3.8/5 This was a hosted meal, courtesy of Takumen. Takumen 66 Circular Road Singapore 049420
The Conquistador from Rise & Grind Coffee Co. – chorizo, poached eggs on toast, truffled leek & mushroom ragout, romesco sauce and arugula. Ignore the emotional blackmail from the conqueror and his (unintentional?) sad-face – he is probably just pouting that you will ruin the visually arresting aesthetic once you dig…
