I love this place for their Miso Salmon Fillet Linguine. But they dun serve it in the early morning. My next go-to, the lemon tart to settle me-self early morning mood. N a Single-egg Benedict with smoked Salmon $12.90, ABC Big Breakfast $17.50 and Egg and Avocado Open-Face $15.90 to share. Everything wiped out clean cos the bread itself is GOOD.
One of the chef’s recommendations on the menu that I’ve been eyeing and finally went ahead to try. This is basically atas fried rice that’s super delicious. The red rice is fried with pumpkin cubes, edamame, mushrooms, long beans and an egg, and you get to choose between roasted chicken or avocado to go with the carbs. I went with the roasted chicken breast, which wasn’t the most tender, but fortunately not dry nor tough to chew. I think it’s seasoned with mustard so the meat isn’t tasteless, and although it is just a teeny bit bland on its own, it goes well with the already-flavoured red rice. The portion of chicken given for $13 is substantial too - very value for money! I love the components in the red rice bowl - the red rice gives a lot more bite than regular white rice, plus it imparts a nutty flavour that’s so addictive. The edamame and long brand add some sweetness and a little crunch, whereas the sautéed mushrooms add an earthy flavour with some saltiness. The pumpkin cubes were harder than I’m used to, but they still worked in this case as they kept their form and didn’t disintegrate in the rice. Might’ve been even better if the pumpkin was softer, but overall I really enjoyed this fried red rice very much and have no complaints about my meal. Looks like I have to visit ABC more often to try more of their dishes and order this again!
Choice of how you’d like your eggs done on two pieces of toast with sautéed mushrooms, bacon, cherry tomatoes and half an avocado. We went for scrambled today and ABC makes pretty good scrambled eggs that are fluffy and a little moist! Toast is done well as it’s super crispy on the outside while soft and chewy inside. The bacon and sautéed mushrooms are on point too. Overall, this is a very satisfying All-Day Breakfast that you can even enjoy for dinner. It’s also not too expensive at $16. Would recommend and would order again!
For $5 extra, you can zhng your meal at ABC with a soup, salad or fries. Many of the mains don’t have leafy vegetables in them so the side salad’s a good choice of add-on. At $5, it’s quite steep for a romaine lettuce base with capsicums, cherry tomatoes and cucumbers. Fortunately, there’s quite a good amount of feta cheese used which adds a refreshing saltiness to the salad. The vegetables are crisp and fresh, and there’s some dressing to round off the side. The dressing is a little like zesty Caesar and there’s a good amount that’s not stingy but also not overwhelming the salad leaves although personally I could’ve done without dressing thanks to the crumbled feta. Not bad for a meal add-on, just wish it were more affordable.
Serving up roasts from Toby’s Estate, the cappuccino at Artisan Boulangerie Co. has fruity and nutty notes, with a nice balance of milkiness and a dusting of cocoa powder to round things off. There’s also the option of soy milk here but non-dairy options are generally limited. You can, however, choose to add on some flavoured syrup if that’s your jam. While I wouldn’t visit ABC for their coffee, it’s worth picking up to go with their All Day Breakfasts or their sandwiches and pastries.
Good selection of all-day breakfasts available at Artisan Boulangerie Co. to satisfy all the breakfast and brunch lovers even at the end of the day. We were spoilt for choice and I was still deciding what to order as I walked to the cashier to order.
Big Breakfast (Front, $17):
Perhaps the most value-for-money dish since it comes with a little bit of everything for the indecisive. Eggs (scrambled or poached), sautéed mushrooms, cherry tomatoes, tomato relish, hashbrown, bacon and sourdough make some good variety, but the dish looks dull due to the lack of greens. Nonetheless, ABC’s big breakfast is quite good although it’s nothing outstanding. The sourdough here doesn’t actually even taste like sourdough as we couldn’t detect any tang to it at all. It was still nice to eat on its own, or with the tomato relish which had a strong zesty tang that was surprisingly addictive. The hashbrown here was also not too oily and actually crispy on the outside. Nice place to chill with a friend for a meal or coffee, but I wouldn’t make my way down purposely for this. Good thing they have many outlets islandwide I guess
Omelette (Back, $12 with 3 ingredients):
A three egg omelette which allows you the choice of three ingredients from their list of ingredients. In this case, I picked feta cheese, sautéed mushrooms, ham and added on baby spinach ($1.50). It’s also served with two slices of soft bread. Similar to the big breakfast, this dish looked very bland when it first came. Even the omelette looked white-washed when it was served. Hmm. Thankfully, the ingredients were anything but bland. I very much appreciated the option of feta cheese as it’s not that common in omelettes. Not sure what bread was served with this, but the two slices were fluffy and made a nice base for the omelette, and also nice on their own. There are other things on the menu I’d like to try, but the omelette is a safe choice and no doubt something I’d return to ordering sooner or later.
Overall ABC’s menu has a lot of interesting stuff to offer. Even if you’re not into the breakfast items, there’s salads, pastas, sandwiches and mains that look delectable. I’m sure I’ll be back for more!
($17.00) Decent mix of bacon, tomatoes and mushrooms and scrambled eggs. Needed more bread to pair with the ingredients though.
Berry tart was delicious and also looked very pleasing! It was light and refreshing, wouls recommend!
Also had the mushroom soup, but that was nothing to rave about really
Definitely a good meal to start and ABC does it well. Well done bacon strips, sausages, salad and sunny side up eggs. Yummy!
Paid about $10 for 3 cakes!! Cheap cheap. Love the hazelnut crunch! (Extremely right) 😋😋 Was still hesitate to order as it look hard and dry. But It's surprise me! Soft and crunchy although it doesn't look like it. Highly recommend!
Had this Deliveroo'd and sad to say, it was awful. The steak was cold!! Not room temperature but actually cold, like it just came from an ice bath. So that means the onions were cold too. Chimichurri sauce was bland. Ugh. At least the bread was decent?
50% off dessert after 8pm I think. Even during weekend. Wow! Definitely cheap and good. Environment was quiet and peaceful. Lemon tart was a bit too sour for me but my friend loves it. Chocolate cake was rich with thick alcohol aroma without getting you drunk. Will go back again.
My most satisfied one out of the three has definitely got to be the focaccia which we used as a pizza base and went crazy with the toppings. I topped mine with cheese, sautéed mushrooms, ham, sundried tomatoes and some greens.

The creamy quiche was the palate pleaser of the day. However, not the same could be said for the overly sweet hot cross bun and lack-luster fruit tart. I could get better fruit tart at a normal bakery.
I rarely eat vegetarian food but I think I can give up my meats just one time for this risotto with portobello and infused with truffle oil.
The grilled dory fillet is really nice. It's baked with zucchini and pumpkin. The sauce taste fantastic.
Perfect blend of mushroom and cheese, their mushroom quiche was a buttery goodness. But minus one for the overly sweet orange chocolate hot-cross bun, as well as the salt-overloaded cream of mushroom. Not to mention about the "not-so-friendly" & slow service :x
quite disappointed with the sandwich. Was lacking in flavour but salvaged it by adding mustard. cappucino was good though.
Had always wanted to try the pastries at this place. Love the decor and the fact that it was not that packed despite it being a lunch hour
Had always wanted to try a Paris Brest and when I saw it, I told myself that I had to get it. Was actually hoping for something soft and airy choux pastry with a crispy exterior, but it was rather dry especially when eaten in it's own. The hazelnut cream was not too sweet, just nice.
