It seemed so much like a patisserie from a distance with a glass display of what I initially thought were cakes, but turned out to be savoury dishes in tiered cubes! I thought it was completely new until I found out that their first stall is at Timbre+.

To make a meal, you can choose two or three cubes/salad from the available selection. They also have a breakfast option of having one or two cubes with a drink. This concept is a dream for greedy foodies like me - I always have trouble deciding on one item to eat and sometimes end up overeating. Pictured here clockwise from the top are Yuzu Salmon, Korean Braised Pork Rice, Bacon Potato, and Nasi Lemak, four of the many choices which include Thai Cod Fish Rice, and Beef Rendang Rice.

My personal favourites are the Yuzu Salmon and Nasi Lemak. I've cooked yuzu-glaced salmon before and found the light and sweet citrus honey goes really well with the fatty salmon, as was the case here. The bottom two layers of spinach- and beetroot-infused rice were probably created more for aesthetics, though I did like mild earthy vegetable flavours.

The Nasi Lemak was the most eye-catching with the tempting otah and bright green (pandan rice) and yellow (egg) layers on top of the plain white coconut rice. That dollop of sweet sambal was sooo sedap, and the crispy fried anchovies served more than just as decoration. However, they definitely need more tweaking to the grainy rice (which, though fragrant, was very dry) and the “agar”-like egg.
:
The Bacon Potato is a mash with purple and orange sweet potato on top, quite buttery and tasty (can’t go wrong with bacon). But as I’ve suggested to the one of the owners, perhaps they can consider serving it chilled like potato salad.

Food Anatomy is having a 50% off this week for all orders, so mine ended up to be only $4.95 (3 cubes for $9.90, was given an extra since they were closing soon weeee)! Quick go make your own combinations over the next few days!
