Quaint and welcoming, DW Workshop nestled along Rochester Drive is a great spot for a nice, cosy weekend brunch. The beautifully themed spaces in the old colonial-style house also ensures that for whatever the occasion, every corner is Instagrammable with ample natural lighting and greenery.

Aside from the well-designed interior, you can expect the menu to be equally well-crafted, too. Having the Crackling Pork Belly ($36, Shares 2) and Salmon Trout ($38, Shares 2) from their Communal Dinning menu, I really enjoyed the hearty fare and relaxing ambience.

Portioned for sharing, the Crackling Pork Belly, as its name suggest had a crisp and addictive skin. With the addition of apples in the risotto and alongside the pork, the hint of sourness was able to cut through the richness of the tender meat. An enjoyable combination, the pork belly might be seasoned a bit heavier but perfect once you paired with the light risotto. For something light, opt for the meaty and moist pan-fried salmon trout liven up with sea salt. Tender, flaky and full of flavour, the dish was nicely executed and hidden underneath was a bed of sweet peas with Brussels sprouts to add a nice crunch. The jamon ham atop enhanced the savoriness and complemented the dish as well.
