[CLOSED] CAMO Café & Bar (SAFRA CCK)

Nice food, just don't order the dumplings

[$19.80]

Nothing could go wrong with the breakfast platter. Sausages, eggs, bacon, hash browns, garlic baguette, baked beans and some greens. The osmanthus honey bacon and smoked sausages is the star of the plate, just wished the baguette could be a little crispier.

The Mentaiko Crispy Pork Cutlet ($13.80) was nicely done as well. The breading was thin, light and crunchy while the pork loin remained moist and tender. And each order comes with a side of coleslaw and a choice of homemade mashed potato or fries.

Off their all-day brunch menu was also the classic American-style CAMO Brunch (Fall In!) Platter ($19.80) with a side salad dressed in sweet balsamic vinegar, toasted slice of baguette, smoked sausage, osmanthus honey-glazed bacon, baked beans, roasted vine tomatoes, eggs and hashbrown. A very hearty option that is good for sharing. The plump smoked sausage was especially good.

For a little more spice and heat, the Angel Hair Seafood Laksa ($13.80) packed quite a punch. With quite a generous amount of prawn and scallops, the spice level of the dish is pretty high but very moreish and rich. The thin slurpy pasta also served as a great medium to soak up all that lemak flavour.

A surprising joint venture between Tunglok and Safra, the army-themed CAMO cafe serves a largely localised menu. With a fun twist to the quintessential Singapore breakfast, the CAMO 5BX Breakfast ($8.80) featured crunchy desiccated coconut between sweet coconut kaya slathered on a light baguette and a pat of cold butter and sunny side-up on the side.
