𝐏𝐔𝐌𝐏𝐊𝐈𝐍 𝐏𝐀𝐍𝐂𝐀𝐊𝐄 ($𝟐𝟐) A lovely adaptation of an eggs royale.🍳🥞 Warmly spiced with cinnamon, the addition of pumpkin into the batter gave it a texture that is less fluffy but more moist! Many places do their hollandaise overly sour or heavy, but this had the right amount of cream, with its brightness peeping from pops of tobiko✨

Poached Eggs on Toast ($19) Start off your Sunday with this good brunch dish. Two poached eggs on top of a thick white toast, smoked salmon and hollandaise sauce Loved the dish - didn’t think it would be filling, but the thick toast, albeit having a slightly tough crust, contributed a lot to it lol Egg is flowy as how it should be, pairing really nicely with the smoked salmon and the generous hollandaise sauce ——— 📍 Group Therapy Coffee - Cross Street Exchange 181 South Bridge Rd, 01-05 & K1-04, Singapore 058743 #burpplesg #grouptherapy

Jimmy Monkey Cafe🧀 Went to Jimmy Monkey Cafe last week and ordered a Grilled Cheesy Crusty ($16), Baked Maple Chipotle Chicken Wings ($18), Bacon Mac n' Cheese Quesadilla ($22), Prawn Aglio Olio ($25), and an Eggplant Moussaka ($23)!😇 Filling for 5 pax~ Overall ratings 7.5/10!😄 Cheesy Crusty and Wings were good, Eggplant Moussaka was delicious, but Alio Olio was quite spicy and not really feeling the Quesadilla😅 Would head back again for the Eggplant Moussaka tho💯

brunch/one-north Jimmy Monkey serves great food and coffee, though being an Australian-inclined café the choice are limited to bread-based western. Here is the all day sourdough and egg with additions of bacon and wilted spinach. Great crispy bread, decently-runny egg (adjust the seasoning by yourself as the egg by itself is not heavily seasoned), crispy bacon. They offer 4 different spreads and I chose vegemite. Wholesome brunch indeed!

For Wickedly Good Pasta You really don't need to spend a bomb on seriously good Italian pasta. The Wicked Garlic's Aglio Olio is very much raved about, and costs a mere $5.70 on its own! But of course, you'd want to add some prawns (+$6), mushrooms (+$1), or even some bacon (+$1). Even then, it makes up to be a more than decent pocket-friendly meal. Nicely put by Tastemaker Shawn Loh, 'Amazingly wok hei prawns, and wickedly value for money. It's the PSLE top student of aglio olios seriously, why it doesn't have its own Brands Essence of Chicken endorsement deal is beyond me.' Their Carbonara ($8.70) is superb as well!

Homemade Ngoh Hiang Comes with 2 pieces, the skin was fried crispy but soft texture inside. Great side dish to go with your claypot meal.

Sesame Chicken This is definitely their highlight among the menu. Super love the taste with the hint of spicy, as you can find lots of chili inside. The chicken was juicy and soft, easy to eat.

Sambal Sotong with Ladies Finger Serving all their dishes in its signature claypot, and you can find them in a few locations. I love ladies finger so went on to try this but was disappointed in a way, that’s because in the menu it show it comes with lots of ladies finger. But when it was served to our table, it actually overwhelm with sotong instead. There’s only a few ladies finger inside. But I still love the sambal, and of course the sotong is big and chewy as well.

Another Outlet At Wisteria Mall! 🌟pork belly (Spain) don $12.9: I love their description of "less than 1mm thick slice of pork belly". Everything went so well together with the mushroom, onsen egg and sauce. My only gripe is the pork belly is too fatty for me (I prefer less fatty meats!) 🌟 Truffle pot pie $13.9: we were WOW-ed by this when it was served as the portion looked quite big. However, the truffle seems to be just truffle oil poured on top of the cream sauce. Lol dining companion didn't mix the sauce when eating, so I could barely taste much truffle taste afterwards hahaha. The filling was v thinly sliced chicken meat, with some potato, celery, carrots and green peas (that I didn't like eating haha). Will prefer more potato and more chicken meat to be in it 🙊 the pot pie puff pastry was crispy though! Do expect a 20mins wait for this dish! No GST and service charge here

Small Warm Cafe With Great Food! Usually in cafes, there are hits and misses, but I have to say, I’m pretty happy with the food I had here! Would highly recommend the beef cheeks and Kurobuta Pork Chop (dinner menu)! It’s a small cafe, so remember to reserve before coming:)

Nice Place, Decent Food It’s a small place but the food and pricing are all decent, worth going. I had the chicken thigh, it’s good, enjoyed it! Service is good, will go there again!

Soy Osthmanthus Tea Cake with Yuzu Frosting Spotted yet another new offering at the favourite place whilst being there for the weekend cuppa the other day; and it goes without saying what we are going to order to accompany the cuppa. Available alongside their line of loaf cakes, which includes the Carrot & Walnut Slice and the Chocolate Banana Slice, the Soy Osthmanthus Tea Cake with Yuzu Frosting is something that offers a twist to the more conventional loaf cakes that they have to offer. The tea cake was actually pretty comforting; bearing the same density as their usual loaf cakes, they are also pretty generous with how big the slices are here. It is sufficiently moist, but I especially loved how the cake itself carried light notes of soy — almost akin to that of soy milk. Whilst the Osthmantus could admittedly be a little stronger for a floral note, the Yuzu Frosting came with a slight zing and wasn’t particularly sweet; overall a pretty fitting and comforting combination. Best paired with an iced long black, especially given the current heatwave of the late.

Open Faced Toast, Slow Cooked Egg and Grilled Bacon ✨Open Faced Toast, Slow Cooked Egg and Grilled Bacon✨ The bacon was cooked brilliantly! Juicy, yet slightly crispy! The toast was a little too soft, especially with the cooked egg and cheese that softened it a little too much. I felt that each side was delicious, but it doesn’t blend well together. 💰: $17.80 📈: 8/10

Oven Baked Molten Eggs with a side of Smoked Salmon, Avocado and Melted Cheese 💼Service review: Super friendly staffs who are always smiley despite the busy lunch crowd. 🥗Food review: ✨Oven Baked Molten Eggs with a side of Smoked Salmon, Avocado and Melted Cheese✨ This is one of the best cafe dish I have ever had😍 The eggs are hidden in the melted cheese, and they are really soft and runny like Ya Kun half-boiled eggs! The eggs softened the melted cheese, which gives it the cheese pull while still having a crispy crust at the bottom. The avocado was sliced beautifully and sprinkled with chilli flakes, giving it a hint of spicy kick. The smoked salmon was really easy to slice and chewy. It goes really well with the avocado and fresh vegetables! The toast was the only part that I dislike as it was too tough to chew. 💰: $18.90 📈: 10/10

What a pity that we came slightly late as they have sold out all of their desserts except the Mochi Donut ($12). Fortunately, this happens to be one of our favourites with the crispy exterior, chewy texture of the mochi donut with the earl grey ice cream. A perfect pairing of hot and cold. •••••••••••••••••••• 📍Brotherbird Coffeehouse 32 Bali Lane, Singapore 189868

Review: Stateland Cafe (Part 3/3) Finally knew why the Earl Grey Bursts with Softserve [$15] is highly recommended. The mochi balls are soooooo good. It’s a good pairing between the hot mochi balls and cold softserve. Have chosen cookie butter over taro softserve as recommended by the staff and it doesn’t disappoint! It’s a pity this is the last time I can enjoy this dessert since the cafe is closing down :/

Review: Stateland Cafe (Part 2/3) Wanted to try the Herbal Duck Confit Risotto but was told that the cafe is not serving this dish today BUT somehow saw another diner eating it so uhh.. Anyway, decided to try the Hainanese Chicken Rice Risotto [$19] instead since it is one of the recommended dishes and it is okay lo. A unique fusion but would appreciate if there is more rice 😅

Iced chocolate Got this for free one day as a nice sponsor gifted these to my workplace. Oh m gee this is so good. Can’t decide whether I like their white magic or this more haha

Iced Chai Latte $5.90++ for this large cup of chai latte. However it was too milky and a bit too sweet in my opinion. More chai pls :) Came on a weekday afternoon. This is a nice place to chill in the afternoon with a book or to have a nice long conversation with a friend.

Iced Matcha Latte $5.90++ for this big cup of iced matcha latte! But it was too milky and a bit grainy. Stick to their coffee.

The food is to die for Love everything about this cafe/bar. The ambience, the food, the drinks, it’s all amazing. The shakshouka and the waffles are probably the best ones I have tried in sg. It’s amazing and the portions are huge. Though pricey, I would say it’s worth it.

Taste worth trying The mains come in halves so it’s easy to share with a friend. The meat was tender and flavourful, and e toast was buttery and amazing on its own. Enjoyed the eggs benedict and the pork confit. Will definite come again with more people to try out more stuff!

Berry waffles Waffles thick and crispy. Berry yogurt flavoured ice cream not too sweet. Medley of flavours and textures with crunchy granola too

"Le Char Siew" Claypot Chicken Rice @ $13/$24 Le Char Siew, as I know most Singaporean pronounce it this way; serves excellent Claypot Chicken Rice. Le Chasseur is ever present in everyone's list of top 10 claypot Rice in Singapore. They used to be located near clark quay central way back in 2013. Unlike other places, long grain Basmati Rice is used in their claypot chicken rice. Chicken meat used here are boneless, salted fish portions are generous as well. Overall 4/5 for me, its so good, I actually came back the next day to eat it again, since I was nearby.

Har Cheong Gai This prawn paste boneless chicken is an old school recipe style. Like the hot plate tofu, although good, nothing really special. Portion a little small Can order to add variety to your claypit chicken rice.

Hot Plate Tofu Decent, nothing really special. Can try, as additional fillers to the main claypot chicken rice dish, for more variety.
