The Fabulous Baker Boy (Aliwal Arts Centre)

Portion was huge and the entire sandwich was oozing with the beef brisket and cheese! Think they used like 3 different types of cheese but with the flavour from the beef brisket, it really wasn’t overwhelming at all.

It comes with real hot soup in a mug (cute!). We got the mushroom soup which was also really nice and full of flavour - kinda feels like it just warms your soul?

Had the eggs benedict with stewed spinach! My eggs were perfectly poached and runny and the hollandaise sauce was yumz but tbh I’d skip the spinach - felt like it was unseasoned and it didn’t really work with the whole dish.

Oh but I really really like the roasted potatoes!

Portions are really good to share, as every bite packs a punch! We got their cream-cheese pancakes and pesto chicken grilled cheese sandwiches which was stellar! I would say these pancakes are the best I've had; their made in-house and the super savory. Definitely on a different level compared to hotcakes! Highly recommend this place!

1. Carrot cake
2. Luna

Both cakes were HUUUUGE.

I'd say I prefer the carrot cake more than Luna, though both were pretty sweet but the texture and taste of the carrot cake was better overall.

Luna was good too but it was crumbly and too sweet after awhile and became "jelat" - good for the sweet tooths out there!

The pasta was covered in a creamy bechamel sauce that was cheesy yet not overpowering. The sauce itself was on the lighter side, making it the perfect base for the intensely-flavoured chilli crab which was equal parts sweet and spicy. The dish was also topped with sourdough breadcrumbs for an additional textural crunch. Overall, an interesting and satisfying take on the usual mac & cheese.
