These days, it seems a classic eggs ben isn't enough to cut it with discerning cafehoppers. More is needed to impress. An example is Stateland's take that incorporates a local element of laksa. In my opinion, it works, albeit turning out to be much smaller than I expected. The "eggporn" money shot didn't happen though as the egg in my order today was a tad overcooked. Sigh... But regardless, the yummy, slightly sweet laksa sauce made up for it somewhat.
Delicious Thai wanton noodle! This has been the craze for a while and I find this one tasting quite original but still with a slight Singapore twist! Pretty decent bowl or bowls of noodle!
Pacamara Boutique Coffee Roasters is the joyous result of a partnership between Oz Specialty Coffee and their coffee partners in Thailand, combining well-loved Pacamara blends alongside a sizeable menu of mains and cafe food. Expect great coffee, including options like Iced Thai Coffee, to be enjoyed with brunch items like their popular Truffle Benedict, Red Velvet Pancakes and Salted Caramel Banana French Toast. For a hearty lunch, get their oven-baked Mac & Cheese. With clean, white, bright interiors and dark wood tabletops, Pacamara is a great space for some chill out time with a good book.
Newly opened in Ang Mo Kio, Murphy's offers authentic English fish & chips in a cafe setting, with their delicious arrowteeth fish fillet available in both its traditional pairing with fries, as well as in burger form. Don't forget to splash a generous glug of imported malt vinegars (Murphy's stocks both original and onion flavours) all over that perfectly fried fish for a legit experience. If fish isn't your thing, Murphy's also offers coffee and a small selection of cakes. Interesting fact: Murphy's currently has a partnership with the National Library Board of Singapore to be a Book Exchange Center under Project Earth, so you can actually trade used books with the ones on their shelves! Go ahead, bring an old book over and enjoy a spanking new book with a cuppa at Murphy's.
Newly opened in Bedok North Ave 2 is ice cream bar, Fatcat. Offering 18 ice cream flavours made from scratch daily, expect to find fresh and exciting flavours like passionfruit sorbet and butter beer, which can come served atop a salted egg charcoal waffle. Besides just dishing out scoops of ice cream, they serve a range of beautifully plated desserts and drinks. A must try is their incredibly refreshing lime mojito sphere, which bursts into an explosion of zesty flavour. For an ice cream bar, what is offered is truly unique, and Fatcat really does set itself apart from all other ice cream parlours out there.
The folks of CMCR are dead serious about their coffee. This cafe is dedicated to making top-notch coffee available to the common man, and believes that great coffee ought to be paired with amazing grub. Start the day with their Turkish Breakfast comprising a phyllo-wrapped soft-boiled egg, crispy feta, tomatoes, cucumbers, olives and hummus served with pita bread. Their Organic Eggs Benedict is another favourite, with a twist of tender braised ox cheeks in place of ham. For a lighter option, grab their flaky Croissant Croque Monsieur which comes stuffed with provolone cheese, ham, and amazing bechamel sauce. Plus a cup of coffee, and you're good to go!
If you enjoy spending time with a very good cuppa and basking in the beauty of gorgeous coffee brewing equipment, it's about time you made a coffee pilgrimage to The Tiny Roaster. Reminicent of Nylon's in-house roasting and coffee-only concept, it's worth setting aside some time to experience the seriousness of this coffee studio. Hidden in an estate beside West Coast Plaza, sit back and enjoy your Iced White Brew ($5) or an aromatic Studio Brew ($4) while being inspired to brew your own coffee at home. You can buy roasted and unroasted beans alongside filters and drippers. They even offer classes on home roasting and brewing, coffee appreciation and cupping!
Fans of the renowned global affairs and culture magazine would be delighted to know that Monocle is finally in Singapore, with a brand new Monocle Cafe and retail store set up in Holland Village. Located in the residential street of Jalan Kelabu Asap, you can look forward to enjoying a great cuppa brewed with La Marzocco beans from New Zealand’s Allpress, and flip through copies of Monocle in their outdoor garden area. You can even do a spot of shopping in their retail space! It's easy to miss, but for chilled-out alfresco vibes and a stellar long black, keep your eyes peeled. Might be a good idea to visit this spot while waiting for your seat at a certain popular waffle and soft serve cafe nearby ;)
As you should expect from an ice cream bar, Fatcat meets the expectation of serving very good ice cream made from scratch daily. But more than just serving exciting flavours like the well-loved Butter Beer and Hay & Honey, they go one step further by creating beautiful plated dessert experiences. Choose a flavour or two from their 18 ice creams to grace the top of their charcoal waffle with salted egg sauce. For another unusual bite, try their incredibly refreshing Lime Mojito Sphere -- an explosion of zesty goodness in your mouth. New desserts are regularly introduced in limited quantities daily (just like their waffles), so be sure to get there early to avoid disappointment!
Enjoy all-day brunch fare, hearty mains and gorgeous desserts with your best friends amidst tranquility at this riverside cafe by Punggol Waterway. Whisk & Paddle offers unobstructed views of the resevoir with good food and drink to boot -- a much-needed respite at any time of day. For brunch, dig into comforting dishes like Eggs Ben with Smoked Salmon on Waffles, or a warm pan of Mac and Cheese. For a sweet treat, choose from their range of desserts in their display, and sit back with a cuppa to enjoy the view. If you can't decide, opt for the Berries Rose Tart, or the humble Earl Grey Lavender Loaf. By night, wind down and swop out the desserts and coffee for bar bites and ice cold beer!
At Sin Lee Foods, the Chicken and Waffles sound tempting, but it is the humble Aburi Broccoli Salad that takes centrestage and receives standing ovations -- time and time again. Inspired by lok-lok, this dish is quite literally a party in your mouth. Torched broccoli florets sit most delicately on a bed of white balsamic, with a cheeky smear of orange coconut sugar on the side that adds not only a lovely colour but also a delightful new dimension of flavour. To top it off, crushed papadums lay scattered, while a light snowing of parmesan finishes this sublime creation. For a satisfying brunch, share the broccoli, and then dig into their Beef and Grains for a real umami, Japanese-inspired hit of flavours that is bound to fill you! Oh, the coffee's excellent too.
