Mother Of Food... (To Try)

Aussie wagyu with torched foie gras on top! As usual this place serves one of the best steaks in town! I'd prefer my foie gras on the usual charcoal bread and berry compote though.

The huge flaky pastry had a wonderful buttery fragrance, scramble was excellent, and to top it off the generous stuffings of cheese, ham, bacon and mayo made it extra luscious. Best part is, you get all of that for S$14: tell me that isn't worth it.

Nitpicking at it a lil, this would've made my fave croissant-wich if the mayo was absent. All the flavours were awesome on their own and needed no extra sauce. Be sure to ask the staff to leave that out!

Travel around Asia in a bowl of noodles - HK style dumplings, Vietnam inspired potato wrapped prawn, Japanese style char shiu and onsen egg and Singapore noodles. Noodle strands are a tad clumpy but the toppings are delicious and the product of the pair's culinary innovation.

Leaving Mr Baguette without trying their lava baguettes ($1.80) is simply a no-no. Just looking at these baguettes will get you salivating. This humble little stall in Golden Mile Food Centre offers both sweet and savoury baguettes, so you're not going to miss out if you don't have a sweet tooth. Imagine biting into a mini hot, crusty baguette, and having a copious amount of luscious molten chocolate or red velvet filling flow out – oh so irresistible. They're rather innovative here; flavours include cheese, tiramisu and cookies and cream. These little babies can be brought home and reheated as well, so you can enjoy them from the comfort of your home. ;)

The most prominent feature would be their Doubanjiang Hollandaise sauce topped with ebiko roes on poached eggs - strongly resembles the sauce covering of a certain sushi place in Wisma 😉 Comrades were scraping every single remaining sauce there is - proofs how addictive it was!

Wow just wow. So sinful, so good. From left to right: Chocolate Banana (WHAT. WITH ACTUAL CHOCOLATE PIES?!), Old School Vanilla (look like Katy perry to me), Avocado Coffee.

All of which made me squeal in delight and excitement when they were served to us, but the ONE that really got me orgasmic was the Avocado Coffee. SO DAMN GOOD. I could just slurp up every bit of it.

One of the less hyped up dishes here that really should receive more recognition is this. The base looks like an ordinary English muffin, but inspect it a little closer and you'll realise it's a toasted buttermilk biscuit – crumbly and crusty around the edges, moist and dense in the middle.

Poached eggs are poised on thick slices of maple-cured ham, blanketed in the most velvety hollandaise sauce ever; this is so well-balanced with buttery notes and the sharpness of lime juice, plus an unexpected nudge of spice in the form of tobasco and cayenne pepper to keep the whole thing from getting too cloying.

Still think this is one of the best stacks of pancakes you can get in town. Each mammoth-sized disc of batter is thick, fluffy and moist, embedded throughout AND topped with wild blueberries – they're more flavoursome than the larger blueberries. If I could have a pancake pillow, I'd get mine from Clinton St.

And I don't know about you, but I sure wouldn't mind forking out $18 to stuff my face with these.

Also, here are some tips if you're unwilling to part with $2 for extra maple butter (which is the bomb) :
1. Don't waste it all on a pouring shot and then complain that there's only enough sauce for the top pancake. Drizzle it over bit by bit as you go.
2. If you have to have a pouring shot as pictured, pour it such that the sauce overflows onto the plate itself, so even the bottommost pancake can soak up some love.
3. Scrape the blueberries off to the side before pouring the maple butter over.
4. Savour the pancakes on their own as well, dammit.
