BrotherBird's CBD Delivery Special

BrotherBird's croissants are the bomb after I was introduced to them at work and thrilled is having them do a popup in CBD! These were delivered right to my doorstep and I was in for a crazy yummy treat!

The best kind of carbohydrate stack worth waking up to!

Don't they look so gorgeously uniform?

The camera always feeds first and having this cross section got me drooling in delight and I could not resist stealing bites of those crumbs.

Ferrero Rocher Mochi Croissant ($5)

This ranks tops for me, from the sticky molten chocolate filling and coating. Who can resist chocolate? What more on a buttery and flaky croissant. Infact this was more sinful and worth the calories than the pain au chocolat pastries they had this launch.

Original Mochi Croissant ($3)

They do really decent croissants and the twoddler was clearly very pleased that he was included in this sinful breakfast. We both enjoyed how it crinkles and cracks into buttery goodness.

Passionfruit Pain Au Chocolat ($4)

What passionfruit?

Nutty Salted Caramel Mochi Croissant ($4)

I'm not of the fan of this nutty caramel combination somehow, rather ordinary.

Kuih Salat Mochi Croissant ($5)

Paying homage to one of the popular nonya kueh, this has a sticky rice custard and kaya mousse for stuffing and somehow this rendition is not my favourite-st. Good effort nonetheless.

Matcha Pain au Chocolat ($4)

This marries both green tea and chocolate in one, I say just stick with the chocolate for the full enjoyment.


I have my favourites from their seasonals and would love to check out their milk tea bubble tea flavour!

Baba Steven's Private Dining: A ex-chef turned home cook

Image
Baba Steven or Chef Steven is endearingly known as has been whipping up peranakan feasts from his Bukit Batok Home since he retired. We booked a table of 8 for a $450 dinner comprising of 8 dishes. Baba Steven's chilli is a must try, fragrant and so tasty with just white rice. I clearly overdosed on this whilst waiting for the rest to arrive, just like soy sauce and rice, so simple yet my belly was full on happiness. The feasting kind of started before the mains were served - freshly baked pineapple tarts. These open faced babies come with a mildly sweet pineapple jam baked atop a really buttery pastry shell. Bakwan Kepiting Soup This is almost a Peranakan staple across the private dinners I have done and whilst this is homecooked, I found the meatballs rolled a tad too tightly. Soup is refillable but those balls are limited to two per diner. Ayam Buah Keluak is the classic peranakan dish at all peranakan meals and Baba Steven takes pride in deshelling each of these tough nu

Jin Hua Fish Head Bee Hoon (金华鱼头米粉) @ Old Airport Food Center

Image
Jin Hua is a household name for fish soup in CBD , very much so that I have joined the relentless queues during lunch just for a bowl of steaming hot goodness. Hurray to this franchise which also sports queues but more forgiving ones! Even way past 2 pm, the queues were neverending. Sliced Fish Soup ($5) Bland broth in comparison to Hougang Hai Zhen Yuan's, the sliced fish slices made it worse since they were barely seasoned too.   It may problems with a franchise but I still prefer their fried fish version over sliced. Given now I have found an alternative, I'd probably be switching camps.  Jin Hua Fish Head Bee Hoon (金华鱼头米粉) Old Airport Food Center #01-120
