The croquetas at Sabio's are excellent! The ham and cheese are better than the plain cheese but both are delicious. The cheese is universally loved by all the kids I know... Fits the formula if you think about it... Cheese + Mashers + Crispy = instant kid favorite
I always liked citrusy flavours and I knew I had to try this lemon tart when it was making its rounds on Instagram! TBB is definitely thoughtful to come up with three levels of sourness/tanginess for these tarts. I find the level two one a good mix of sourness and sweetness, and I'm looking forward to trying a level three one! ($6.50)
Kouign-amann buttery pastry which is soooooo goooood! A perfect tea time indulgent & goes best with a cup of coffee $3.50

a bit on the pricey side but the taste of the roll and the fries was really good and made me really want more. #sgeats #burpple #lobsterroll
Why not venture beyond the usual soft, eggy crepe and give the healthier Brittany-style one a try? Owned by a French couple, this little restaurant has been around for about six years. Their menu consists primarily of thin, slightly crisp buckwheat crepes served with a variety of homemade sweet or savoury fillings.
Using only organic, gluten-free wheat flour, the crepes themselves have what I'd describe as a light earthy and nutty flavour. Hence, they are assertive enough to hold their own against rich fillings.
One fine example is the delightful "La Ouessant" pictured above ($21.10 before service charge). I thought the filling of Emmental cheese, ham, mushroom in cream sauce and egg (either sunny-side-up or scrambled) paired remarkably well with the crepe.
If you prefer a more substantial bite, just ask to switch your crepe to the thicker and softer "galette" instead.
A hunt for authentic crepes led me to the quaint restaurant specialized in crepes of a wonderful assortment from savory to sweet. Smoked salmon and sour cream, being safe options for all things sandwichy were nothing of special mention but the buckwheat crepe had a unique earthy and nutty flavor which served as a special base for the otherwise boring toppings. $20.90 for a crepe was a little expensive though but for a taste of authentic crepe with apple cider (top with a pretty french waitress!) was a pleasant experience after a hectic day of work. :)
heard so much about this restaurant and the flank steak (that is only served from Friday til Sunday, by the way) that i had to trudge through a Friday downpour and wet shoes to try this. and indeed it lived up to the hype. the flank steak ($28) was lean as it should be (no one ever calls a flank fat) and full of beefy goodness. there was a slight char, always a bonus, and it was nicely pink on the inside. difficult to fault the sweet potato mash, smooth without lumps and very more-ish. plus WHO DOESN'T LIKE CARBS?????
With no GST and service charge, i foresee myself coming back here regularly 😬
A nutty chocolate taste with accents of vin santo, paired with a savory crostini. yum! #sweetsavory #burrple #sgdesserts #sgfoodie #sgfood #foodporn
Used to rave over their indulgent hot chocolate that's an absolute treat during a cold Parisien winter's day but never tried their desserts before. I must say I'm not too impressed with the choux pastry of the Paris-New York, but intense flavors of the chestnut and the cream of the Mont Blanc is something worth returning for.
Feels like I'm back in Paris next to the jardin des Tuileries. #burpple #sgeats #whati8today #sgfoodies #chocolate
