Desserts
All lunch sets at Brio can be topped up (+$3.90 to your lunch set) for a dessert too. Choose from 3pcs churros, 1/4 waffle with ice cream or a tiramisu.
We had the churros with chocolate dip & 1/4 waffle with ice cream. Both were fresh and piping hot. Crisp on the outside and soft on the inside. For an additional $3.90, it’s the perfect end to the meal😋 The other good news is that this weekday lunch set starts as early as 11am and end as late as 5pm🙌🏻
Both were SO GOOD i cant pick a favourite. One is refreshingly light & fluffy with a generous serving of crunchy rockmelon. The other, a mishmash of interesting flavours & textures; butterfly pea flower-coloured glutinous rice with a mousse-like top that tasted like pandan(?) but had a slight savoury taste too.
I would say they complement each other. I just kept going back and forth between the two and the plates were wiped out within minutes 😄
Really like the moist sponge layers and that the cinnamon taste was not as strong as some of the versions I have tried. The walnut pieces gave this dessert a nice crunch & added texture to the cake.
Shared the rainbow cake & Valrhona chocolate cake with Sis and we both agreed their cakes were surprisingly good👍🏻
The rainbow cake was moist and the cream cheese was just enough to give it a more full bodied taste but not too much that it makes you feel sick after a fee bites. In fact, I couldn’t stop after the first bite 😄
The Valrhona chocolate cake reminded us of the Starbucks Ovaltine chocolate cake, but a fresher version. The cake was softer and the chocolate richer. Had this with their matcha latte and it was a little heavy overall. Should have gotten an iced tea instead~
I’m usually wary of pretty cakes. There have been so many that looks good but taste mehhh~
But after seeing Boufe’s VERY photogenic cakes all over Instagram, I decided they might be well worth the try, even if not for my tummy, at least “for the ‘gram”.
Totally glad I did because these are indeed some pretty spectacular cakes! The taste were interesting and unique; and although the marriage of flavours might seemed unlikely, each one blended perfectly well with the other. (For example the Unicorn was a chocolate mousse and mango cremeux with vanilla sponge and white chocolate; while the Milkyway was white chocolate yoghurt mousse with calamasi jelly amongst other ingredients)
Prices are about to $8-$9 but i find that for the presentation PLUS taste, they well justified 👍🏻
Original Tiramisu ice cream - wonderfully layered (read --> mascarpone cheese, ice cream, crushed cookies, cocoa powder, coffee liquor, soft serve, cocoa powder again and finally topped with freshly grated chocolate shavings!) Very pretty but it started melting after just 2 pics :(
I'm a cake person. And it's just terrible that i have to fall in love with their cakes cos these are so pricey :(
The Signature have always been my personal fave and the bane of my diet. The Matcha was okay but i guess perhaps cos im not a huge fan of matcha so i may not be the best judge. The seasonal flavour was the Earl Grey which was really fragrant and tasted like the milk tea from bubble tea shops haha. Sweet and milky and fragrant. 👍🏼❤️
We ordered this despite polishing off 2 pastas and the wings. Even then, it was SO GOOD. I took a first bite and literally put down my fork and SWOONED😍😍 I wish i had more of the salted caramel cos I was moping up every bit of drizzle on the plate.
Impressed with the interior of the place which reflected a rustic nautical theme. Sis & the Bff had the waffles which i stole bites of and it was buttery and crisp on the outside & all warm and fluffy on the inside. What captured my heart was my scoop of Rocher ice cream(hazelnut and choco). I love it & I'm not even an 'ice cream kinda person'.
Lovely sweet treats to end a girl's day out❤️
Surprisingly good. The sandy texture of salted egg yolk goes well with the smooth cheese. The cheese wasn't too flavourful, which makes the original flavour pale in comparison, but works well for the combination with salted yolk. The buttery tart base was like that of their famous chicken pies. Overall I would highly recommend this; toast it for a few minutes before eating. As for the original, hmm, no loss if you give it a miss.
[TOKYO] Just outside of the Shimokitazawa station, this is rather pricey. About 6sgd and we were a little surprised by the small portion. The balls were dough-y & buttery. But it was the fresh cream dip that makes the money well spent. So good it will make you ignore the calories.
