BrotherBird's CBD Delivery Special

Image
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) Wh...

The Fat Turtle @ Seminyak, Bali

Image
One of the things I looked forward to doing in Bali is visiting their cafes but laziness got the better of me and I ended up accomplishing only 1 of 3 on the plan. The Fat Turtle is home to fluffy pancakes and good coffee, free wifi too! No prizes for guessing what's their wifi password. Crochet knits for sale, anyone? Iced mocha Balinese Nasi Goreng (IDR 50K) Chicken satay, fried egg, homemade vegetable pickles, prawn crackers It's only in Bali that I'd ever order rice at brunch, for the rice-loving chinaman dad no less. This version was pretty tasty and makes me just wonder if this is a benchmark of how good a restaurant is because every other place we went to had it on the menu! Big breakfast hardly goes wrong and neither did this one. Smashed Avocado on Toast (IDR 55K) Tomato Salsa, Feta Cheese, Two poached Eggs, Feta Cheese Eggs benny end up too boring for me hence I went the route of smashed arvo. Ultimate egg porn and I am happy to report, both eggs made their way sa...

St Marc Bakery and Bar @ Parkland Green

Image
St Marc Bakery and Bar at Parkland Green is the only outlet in Singapore that I am aware of serving up a full fledged menu and the space is huge! Mushroom Soup ($6.80) This filled barely less than half a bowl, barely had mushroom bits and was a clear case of rip off. Steer clear. Cajun Chicken ($18.80) On the fence about the barbeque chicken that hovered on being over marinated, loved the mash and dressing. Chicken and Chips ($16.80) It's a fried food junkie's dream here with crisp fried chicken on a bed of fries. These straight cut fries and tartare sauce were a joy on their own. Any mention of calories, please save them for after the meal.   Classic Fuji ($7.30) No visit is ever complete without an order of a Fuji, mini or classic. This was a tad over the top with the portions and level of sweetness - adored the buttery fragrant croissant pastry and that soft serve swirl. Caramel sauce and crazy sweet red beans did not help one bit. There are also burger, pasta and rice opt...
