Best paired with one of their coffee and we can't resist ordering their Breakfast Burger ($6) for take away! So good especially with lots of their signature bacon jam 😍
The Short Review
Price Range: $11-$14
Nearest MRT: one-north
Instagrammability: High -
Colourful walls, inside & out.
Tiny space reflects its "to-go" spirit, with all dine-in food items served in paper boxes to minimize cleanup.
Though this rather well-lit corner joint may be shrouded in construction dust, management quipped that "come 16 October, Lee Hsien Loong has to walk across that bridge. They have to get it done by then, right?"
Food:
1) Brie, Honey Ham & Truffle Mascarpone Croissant [$7.50]
Deceivingly stale-looking, sitting all mummified in a display fridge, this reheated pastry resurrects into a decent, crisp & tasty light lunch.
2) Breakfast Burger [$6.00]
Stuffed with scrambled egg, sundried tomatoes & generous bacon jam from a superior OMC dish from its sister outlets, the BB's worth the money, though the Croissant does feel more luxurious.
3) Hot Chocolate [$5.00]
A small cup of chocolate goodness. Vertically dusted with cocoa.
4) Iced Chocolate [$6.00]
Significantly more dilute than its warmer counterpart, as if the same amount of solute was added to a larger cup of ice.
Though signatures like its Gashouse Eggs & Brioche French Toast will be missed, OMC's effort to create an entirely different menu for an entirely different (working) crowd should be appreciated, being both rather economical as an atas coffee break & easy to-go.
Come Here: Again.
I am usually not a fan of cold sandwiches that is pre-packed, left in the display chiller and only to be reheated when you order them, but this was not anything like that. In fact, you could taste freshness out of this one; the light, fluffy toasted bun with juicy and tangy sundried tomatoes, scrambled eggs well-seasoned with salt and pepper and One Man's signature bacon jam which now comes spread so generously on the bottom bun, this is a hearty and comforting dish without being heavy for the morning. Priced at $6, this is indeed a more affordable option amongst the pricey establishments for the office workers in the area
Yes my fave Bacon Jam from OMC, with scrambled eggs and grilled tomatoes. So much bacon goodness in every bite…
My type of burger. *drools*
