House Breakfast from Bridge Restaurant & Bar – bratwurst, black forest ham, sauteed mushrooms, cherry vine tomatoes, fork mashed ratte potatoes, toasted brioche, mesclun with truffle honey vinaigrette, and scrambled eggs with added sauteed spinach. Despite what its black-lipsticked, European moodiness may suggest, this was actually a straightforward exercise in…
Ocean’s Thirteen from Rise & Grind Coffee Co. – smoked salmon, poached eggs, asparagus, brioche toast, beetroot yogurt and yuzu hollandaise sauce. Magnificent presentation, with the bold splash of beetroot yogurt adding so much drama to the plate that a wavy-haired nymphet with mascara tears who is on a phone…
Waffle breakfast – waffle with pork sausage, bacon, scrambled eggs & maple syrup. Despite the waffles looking as if they were fairly shagged and limp after a hard day of grading papers, CCA supervision and other teacherly endeavours, the moist and doughy quadrants were surprisingly fragrant and sweet, with a…
Crab Cake Benedict from Roosevelt’s Diner & Bar – crab cake, English muffin, poached egg and garlic mayo. Despite the English muffin being a stubborn little runt and the poached egg being rather devoid of personality in spite of best efforts from the egg yolk and sweet garlic mayo, it…
Customised Bacon Eggs Breakfast from Tête-à-Tête Café with added sausages and mushrooms.

You can tell with one bite of both the pork sausage…
Big Plate – two scrambled eggs, brioche toast, bacon, mushrooms and bratwurst. The toast was fluffy but rather burnt, the eggs nicely buttery and the mushrooms happily moist. I was undecided about the bacon – it may not have been my preferred crispy type, but it was ultimately competently fatty,…
Salmon Scramble – smoked salmon, scrambled eggs, salmon roe, toasted multigrain bread. Who knew dry multigrain bread could taste so good when toasted to a crisp? The eggs were nicely fluffy and the salmon elements enjoyably salty, but the serving size could probably feed one quarter of a boy undergoing…
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,…
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
