TOASTS

TLDR: the more I had the 𝙋𝙪𝙢𝙥𝙠𝙞𝙣 𝙏𝙖𝙧𝙩𝙞𝙣𝙚 (~$16) the less I liked it. The Balsamic reduction, drizzled on one of the softest sourdough I’ve ever had, was brilliant. 🤩
-
Now for the bad: with a lack of a meatier, saltier component, the mildy carby pumpkin on bread duo lacked any complexity. A blob of whipped goats ricotta didn’t balance the dish at all, instead further accentuating its awkwardness. 🍞🧀
-
Perhaps a saltier cheese would’ve fared better. 🙂

If you don’t think about the fact that this is essentially a sandwich you could make at home yourself, the 𝘾𝙝𝙚𝙚𝙠𝙮 𝘽𝙚𝙚𝙛 (~$17) is quite decent. Taste wise, of course. The pulled beef held a slight sweetness to nullify the cheesiness, and I actually liked the bread crust (shocker! I usually hate the crust)
-
But all good things come to an end, as I found the Jaffles getting too dry as I continued eating. The poached egg (which was more ramen egg than poached) did little to save that.

If you thought your studying content is dry, the 𝘽𝙚𝙚𝙛 𝙎𝙝𝙤𝙧𝙩𝙧𝙞𝙗𝙨 𝙎𝙖𝙣𝙙𝙬𝙞𝙘𝙝 (~$16) is drier. I have no idea how a sandwich can be dry even with melted cheese, but you’d be surprised.

Admittedly, I do love me a good grilled cheese and tomato soup combo. Punch’s 𝙂𝙧𝙞𝙡𝙡𝙚𝙙 𝘾𝙝𝙚𝙚𝙨𝙚 (~$11) was good, but it just didn’t hit the spot.
-
The tomato soup had a thick consistency, yet lacked that tangy tomato kick I was searching for, tasting more of a ‘pasta sauce’ than a tomato soup. 🍅
-
The grilled cheese could do with being more grilled and toasted, since this had loads of potential to be comparable to the grilled cheese I had from ps cafe.

I was kinda indifferent about the 𝙍𝙖𝙣𝙜𝙚𝙧𝙨 𝙎𝙩𝙚𝙖𝙠 𝙎𝙖𝙣𝙙𝙬𝙞𝙘𝙝 (~$17) though. The flavours were no doubt there. Great portions and aroma, proper contrast with the caramelised onions and capsicum, but probably not a good takeaway item— the multigrain bread soaked up all the teriyaki. 😣

I mean, you can’t really screw up 𝙈𝙪𝙨𝙝𝙧𝙤𝙤𝙢 & 𝙊𝙣𝙞𝙤𝙣 𝙏𝙤𝙖𝙨𝙩 (~$4.50), right?
To be honest, there was nothing particularly wow about this. The toast was crispy and thicc, but definitely too carb-y since the ingredients were inadequate. 🤷🏻‍♀️
-
Caramelised onions were extremely muted taste wise especially under all that melted cheese, and I had to separate the ingredients to taste each one. 😩
-
Sure, they aren’t charging $10 for this, (literally every bakery I’m looking at you) but they have better items, skip this.

Cheese for DAYS. That’s exactly what Korio’s take on the 𝙂𝙧𝙞𝙡𝙡𝙚𝙙 𝘾𝙝𝙚𝙚𝙨𝙚 𝙎𝙖𝙣𝙙𝙬𝙞𝙘𝙝 (~$9) is. Melted cheese was stretchy and gooey, perfect for those of y’all who are dreamy of that ‘cheese pull’. 🧀
-
Perhaps they went slightly overboard on the cheese, because the onions were somewhat scarce. I would’ve liked a more obvious sweet piercing onion flavour to counteract the dense cheesiness.
-
The bread crust was HEAVENLY. And this is coming from someone who usually ditches bread crust. All round crunchy at the edges, the slightly burnt crust was superb. -
I’m still with Ps cafe’s grilled cheese — but korio is definitely a worthy competitor.

Was skeptical trying the 𝙃𝙤𝙣𝙚𝙮 𝙈𝙖𝙨𝙘𝙖𝙧𝙥𝙤𝙣𝙚 𝙏𝙤𝙖𝙨𝙩 (~$14), bc frankly, its pricey for toast, and how can everyone like it?
.
But oh BOY. The mascarpone🥰. Smoother than ricotta, fluffier and lighter than cream cheese, the mascarpone met its sweeter match in the form of honey. Spread out generously on the famous sourdough, and you got yourself the perfect brunch toast 🍞
.
The honey, though clearly visible, wasn’t that obvious. Some parts were inbalanced and drowned out by the mascarpone.

You know it’s good when you still think about the 𝙃𝙤𝙪𝙨𝙚 𝙍𝙞𝙘𝙤𝙩𝙩𝙖 𝙏𝙖𝙧𝙩𝙞𝙣𝙚 (~$12) hours after eating it 🤤 Homemade Ricotta was SO SMOOTH and creamy, and the sweeter dried baby tomatoes contrasted the dense ricotta amazingly 🍅 Also did I mention how generous they were with the ricotta? It was probably as thick as the toast itself 🍞 Save yourself the trouble of choosing from the menu and GET THIS! 😛

𝙃𝙤𝙢𝙚𝙢𝙖𝙙𝙚 𝙣𝙪𝙩 𝙗𝙪𝙩𝙩𝙚𝙧 𝙩𝙤𝙖𝙨𝙩 (~$6): a unique blend of hazelnut and almond butter spread on thick sourdough, the added honey on top added a nice light sweetness! 🍯 Although I thought they could add more nut butter though 🤷🏻‍♀️

Ig @goodfomood

Been craving this Creamy Mushrooms on Sourdough (~$14) with Scrambled Eggs (+$3) for months ever since I saw it on someone’s instastory.... 👅
.
A generous portioned of creamed shimeji mushrooms were presented on top of soft sourdough, anD DAMN IT WAS GOOOD 😋 Sourdough never got soggy throughout the meal despite the creamed mushrooms on top, and the sweet sundried tomato’s disrupted the creamy texture of the mushrooms and herb cream 🍅
.
Scrambled eggs were fluffy though slightly overcooked at the bottom, but hEY I would willingly pay $17 for this anyday 😛

Ig @goodfomood

Berry Yoghurt Toast (~$10) was not only visually pleasing but also pleasing to my tummy 🙆🏻‍♀️ Different types/degrees of sweetness from the berries/yoghurt and honey worked well with together with the difference in their textures 🍓🍌🍇🍯
.
Sourdough toast was lightly toasted, crispy on the sides and soooo soft and fLUFFy on the insides!! It doesn’t look like a lot but trust me it’s filling! 🍞
