As an Easter special, we'll be exploring some egg-centric food spots in Singapore! All these joints specialise in food that consists of eggs done in different ways—it's interesting to see how a single ingredient can conjure up so many variations.
For Juicy Burgers With Eggs
A popular and well-regarded restaurant chain, Egg Slut continues to dominate the Food & Beverage industry with their creative and delicious egg-based dishes. The restaurant's menu features a variety of breakfast and lunch options, including sandwiches, bowls, and sides.
The bacon, egg, and cheese sandwich ($12) at Egg Slut is a popular item on the menu and is praised for its delicious combination of ingredients. The must-try sandwich features hardwood smoked bacon, a cage-free over medium egg, cheddar cheese, and chipotle ketchup, all served on a warm brioche bun.
Many enjoy the rich, smoky flavour of the bacon that's paired with the creamy cheddar cheese. The sandwich is moist and rich thanks to the well-cooked egg and slightly runny yolk, and the tangy, spicy ketchup on top certainly complements the other flavours of the sandwich.
For Fluffy Scrambled Eggs
Trying out Little Rogue Coffee's Soft Scrambled & Ikura ($19.50) is definitely an experience you won't regret! This dish consists of fluffy and creamy scrambled eggs, topped with a generous serving of salty and savoury Ikura, truffle cream, and chives, all served with a side of sourdough bread.
At first glance, the dish may appear simplistic but be prepared to be blown away by the depth and complexity of flavours upon the first bite! The creamy texture of the eggs combine perfectly with the salty Ikura and earthy truffle cream, creating a taste that's both indulgent and satisfying. The sourdough bread also adds a nice crunch and texture to the dish, making it a well-rounded and complete meal.
For Hearty Egg Sandwiches
Egg Stop certainly knows how to turn simple eggs into egg-stravagant masterpieces in the form of hearty egg sandwiches; these feature high-quality eggs that will have you hooked in just one bite! Fans of beef should most definitely try the Beef Chilli Cheese ($6.90) which features minced spiced beef chilli, their creamy signature eggs (cooked to perfection, of course), and nacho cheese sauce. Here, the spiced beef chilli is notably well-seasoned and piquant, and adds a nice fiery kick to the sandwich! This strikes a great balance with the tangy nacho cheese that ties everything together nicely. Prepare to be egg-stremely impressed by this one!
For Toasty (Ajitama) Egg Sandos
If you're anywhere on Tiktok, I'm sure you've already heard about Hello Arigato, a trendy lifestyle cafe serving Japanese inspired comfort food. This includes everything from sandos and donburis to pastas and beverages—the selection is truly endless. Ajitama egg enthusiasts should definitely check out their signature Tamago Sando ($14) which features a delicious combination of a super creamy Japanese egg mayo, a traditional Tamagoyaki, a slightly salty Ajitama egg, and an incredibly soft and fluffy Japanese milk bread as the base.
For Incredibly Creamy Eggs
The Brewing Ground offers something a little different from the usual Eggs Benedict! Opt for their Eggs Benjamin ($23) which consists of the most meticulously prepared soft-boiled eggs; these are cooked at a precise temperature of 63 degrees which results in a delicate and creamy texture that's simply irresistible. The flavourful eggs are served on top of a slice of perfectly toasted sourdough bread that adds a nice buttery crunch to the dish. All this is accompanied by some sauteed spinach as well as a rich and savoury Beurre Blance sauce—a classic French sauce made from butter and white wine.
For Nostalgic Soft Boiled Eggs
Soft boiled eggs are a classic breakfast staple in Singapore! But where does one go to find a good rendition? Well, Chin Mee Chin is your best bet! Their Soft Boiled Eggs ($1.60) are cooked to perfection, and boasts a creamy, slightly runny yolk that's perfect for dipping into a mixture of savoury soy sauce and white pepper. This is served with slices of warm and buttery toast—perfect for soaking up the flavourful eggy bits. This classic dish is a true testament to how simple ingredients can come together to create something that's truly special and beloved by all Singaporeans.
