Love the buns, they’re so crispy! Prefer the grilled meat compared to the fish.

got 3 banh mis for $9 or around there! they were all decent not bad and sizeable for $3 each. the best was probably the dark marinated meats! i think it was the pork

Opened to much fanfare, Eatbox was a spot that I was expecting to see crowds at for lunch when we made our visit on a weekday afternoon whilst being back in the office — the concept is a permanent feature by the same folks behind Artbox, which used to hold their annual events being a pop-up creative market every year. It takes over the former premises of the now-defunct Xin Tekka, and houses quite a number of new and familiar brands such as The Butcher Bar (serving up burgers and rosti), Flash Coffee (serving up specialty coffee), Okinawa Nigri (serving up Onigirirazu), and Toni Yakiniku (serving up Japanese Donburi) amongst others.

Had been wanting to try BLYS Baguette ever since i had went past their outlet near the Happy Hawkers coffeeshop at Jurong East Gateway — always one who is in for good Banh Mi anyway. Whilst the Special Great Banh Mi (Banh Mi Dac Biet) seems to be the one to go for that comes with four different types of meat (think Ham Pork, Char Siu, Pork Floss and Pate), I went for the Grilled Meat Roll Banh Mi which seems to come with chunks of ham pork amidst the other standard elements such as butter and pickled vegetables. What stood out about their Banh Mi was how aptly buttered it was — really liked that savoury flavour that accompanied the shattering crisp baguette that carried a chew. Felt that the Banh Mi here do get slightly softer as they cooled down though; especially given how this outlet at Eatbox is in an air-conditioned environment. That being said, the grilled meat roll seemingly comprises of chunks of ham pork; provides for a good bite whilst being suitable savoury without becoming overly saltish — also loved how the pickled vegetables did carry that tangy crunch that it’s supposed to have.

With quite the variety of options covering Japanese fare, Thai food, light bites and beverage options, Eatbox is one of those places that probably has something for everyone. That being said, do expect a smaller option of mains here — most of the stalls seemingly catering to smaller plates and desserts though there are sufficient options that makes one want to revisit Eatbox again. Looking forward to go for the burgers at The Butcher Bar next, not to mention how it does seem like a pretty convenient location for a more “hipster” lunch around the workplace if one is in the mood to splurge just a little.
