Guiding you to good food & best restaurants in Singapore

Cloudstreet's immaculate experimentation is shown here in a great starter that no one would loaf — quite the proof. (Yes I'm doing bread puns)

This 𝘀𝘁𝗼𝘂𝘁 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗹𝗶𝗰𝗼𝗿𝗶𝗰𝗲 𝗯𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗱 was part of my set lunch ($78++), and perhaps the highlight. The texture was beguiling — fluffy and dense whilst carrying a bit of moistness at the same time.
-
The truly enchanting part was in its perfect storm of flavours. It carried dainty sweet notes from that gorgeous molass glaze, which was complemented by deeper savoury notes of the licorice and stout, adding a magical breadth to its profile. Topped off with the heavenly butter, I couldn't help but wolf this down.

Outside, the pastry not only looks gorgeous but also has just the right amount of flakiness, butteriness and sweetness.

When split open, mouth-watering amounts of custard gush out. The filling is not overly sweet, whilst still packing a gratifyingly milky fragrance.
Paired together, the result is a heavenly pastry that is never cloying.

This grilled cheese sandwich with brie, cheddar and mozzarella was scrumptuously rich. For heathens that do not appreciate the glorious cheese overload, it is served with an addictively zesty tomato dip that can cut through the heartiness.

The woodfire baked bread on this breadboard ($10) were masterfully crafted, with a golden ratio of denseness and chewiness. The white sourdough in particular was heavenly when toasted, imbued with an irresistible char and a pleasurable crunch.
-
Not to forget the accompanying olive oil and Norwegian butter, both of which were supremely fragrant and the perfect foil to the bread.

Their sourdough is always on point. This toast ($6) is dense but still fluffy, whilst boasting a satisfying crunchiness on its toasted exterior.
-
The nut butter also delivers a pleasantly fragrant nuttiness -but not too jelak- and is not overly thick. It's great, but also makes me miss the classic from @woodlandssd!

This almond croissant ($4.80) is probably one of the best I've had in SG. That unbelievably flaky and buttery exterior concealed the dense and chewy innards. It was supremely nutty and had a playful dose of sweetness that was not remotely cloying.
-
I actually had it before, but this time it was the most on point it had tasted. I was thoroughly blessed with two of life's biggest enjoyments - great pastry and Murakami. (Tbh it was just a prop lol but the book is amazing nonetheless)

Not a hyperbole. Having had amazing sourdough from many great artisanal bakeries, nothing made me squeal internally like this unassuming loaf.
-
This Magic of the Moon ($2.50) is a steal at that price. The crust crackled, quite resoundingly, with such a nonchalance. And the fluffy white interior was magically chewy and fluffy due to the right ratio of moistness and doughiness.
-
Of course bread texture depends on preference. But at $2 50, I could eat this everyday.

Part of the breakfast selection at the new Millenia Walk outlet. The Ondeh Ondeh Kaya Toast was all kinds of decadent — unbelievably crunchy ciabatta toast, fragrant salted butter and most importantly, a smooth custard-like pandan kaya that bursted with flavour.
