Frieda (Capitol Singapore)

from burpple beyond
one sausage platter and 2 half-pint beer

This was arguably the highlight of the meal for me. A thick slice of apple cake to end the meal. There are multiple layers, including a jam-like layer near the bottom of the cake. Tastes very much like the cakes that I had in Germany.

Rating 8/10

The batter was crispy and light with sea salt sprinkled at the top. The veal was tender enough, albeit a tad too thin. Didn't quite understand how it could be paired with a cranberry sauce/jam, but surprisingly the pairing was pretty decent.

Rating 7.5/10 worth it with burpple one for one deal.
This place also serves complimentary bread with butter as a starter. You may wish to save a little butter from the starters to pair with the schnitzel 😄

Chocolate lava cake with a gooey chocolate centre; the cake oozes a thick dark cholate lava when the cake is slit open. Paired with vanilla ice cream and crumbs, the latter adding a contrasting crunchy mouth feel from the soft and fluffy cake.

There's also three dollops of orange sauce, which has a spiced aftertaste that I can't identify. It surprisingly pairs well with the cake, especially midway if you find the chocolate may get too cloying.

Rating 7.2/10.

To be honest, even when I had this in Austria, I can't tell if meat in schnitzel is veal escalope or chicken/pork because it's always smashed flat. Anyways, this schnitzel was crispy and reasonably tender with interesting sides. It's quite a big portion too but at $38 it'd better be!
