Cafe Grub

We had the Korean-infused Galbi-Choi Bagelwich, a tantalising mix of Kalbi(BBQ beef short rib), Kimchi, Gochujang Aioli and their “Hippie Greens”.

The Kalbi was fatty, succulent and slightly caramelised on the outside, tasting very much like the type we grill in KBBQ.

The Gochujang Aioli is interesting, some parts sour, some parts slightly sugary, but works well with the other ingredients tbh.

Aesthetically, the bagel is not only just pleasing to the eyes, but also looks pretty substantial.

Truth is, I personally wouldn’t come just to feel super full after. The portion’s just enough to make u feel just nice and satisfied.

Generous strips of tender wagyu beef topside(inner beef thigh), accompanied with juicy Shiitake Mushrooms, Garlic Sautéed Kale, an Onsen Egg and their signature Garlic Bread Stick, all on a bed of white Kokuho rice.

Super fresh ingredients that taste amazing even when eaten on their own. In fact, even the Sautéed Kale is so delicious that it even makes me wanna eat vegetables(honestly quite a chore sometimes).

If in the extreme case you do find each bite of rice to be a little tasteless, every bowl comes with a side of their Truffle Sesame Soy Sauce to spice up the dish instantly.

Carrara Cafe, kinda low-key in the cafe scene but high-key famous for its supposedly award-winning gelato, actually offers pretty tasty grub as well.

We started off with one of their creations, the Premium Truffle Breakfast Pasta and had absolutely no regrets. The truffle-infused carbonara pasta was made al dente, complemented well by the juicy mushrooms, delightful poached egg and huge grilled sausage.

The highlight for me was the bacon, smoky and caramelised with a hint of sweetness, which blended amazingly with the savoury pasta.
