Bakerinz

I did mention tt I registered for the Bakerinz mbrship card yeah? So I decided to use it today.

I wanted to hang out in a café so out I went. Supposed to do a little gyming BUTTT I woke up late. Plus I neede d to clear my posts! I’m super lagg. HAHHA

I know I’m being pretty thick skinned here cos I headed to United Sq’s outlet and makind use of my voucher, jus wanted a soup. Then here I am, typing away on my laptop, eating and not even paying a single cent cos I made use of the coupon. CHEAP rite? Ya I also think so. So so so pray I hang out ltr, so I can at least order a coffee  Plus, they having 30% off on cakes, beverages and desserts so all the more I shld try out their stuff.



Anw the soup was thick and boy did I lament insede my heart when the bowl of soup came. It was so pathetically small. Then I thot, lucky they hav free flow of bread. After 2 rounds to the bread counter and finishing my soup, I was comforted that the soup was a small helping. I didn’t get sick from the soup. The mushroom soup ($5.80) was thick and creamy, oh no the calories of fat from cream! It was packed full of mushroomy goodness and SHIOKK! I love my food when they are served literally boiling hot. I could tell so from the steam that streamed off the bowl and the moment it touched my mouth. I am a satiated, happy soul.

Where’s my beverage? I jus ordered a Café Affogato with Rum & Raisin ice cream. ($6.60) Shit. My cough hasn’t recovered. But heck la.



It’s super nice. I kinda expected a float but nah, it seems as if the coffee takes centre stage instead of the ice cream, which usu outshines others. Both complement each other well. The ice cream is sweet and the coffee bitter so when u combine the 2 = bliss. Simple yet effective. I am liking my coffee more and more each day 

Oldtown White Coffee

First thot when we entered was... empty. Cos it was 8 plus in the morning. We debated if it was abt the time or sure if it's tasty not, as wat the papers said it was.

"THEN, IT WAS JUST THEN WHEN WE SAW THE MENU. IMPRESSIVE... IMPRESSIVELY EX." as the mum proclaimed.

u see, she was the one who treated so her eyeballs totally POPPED OUT when she saw the prices despite the whole array of dishes. LIKE MORE EX THAN YA KUN?! how much can 1 kopi, 2 eggs & 1 slice of bread with kaya n butter cost? Kopitiam only cost $2 PLUSS now they are scheming. THEY DUN OFFER THEIR BREAKFAST(BF)SETS ($4.20 for 1 slice of Kaya Toast, 2 Eggs, 1 Kopi) ON WKENDS & PH. LIKE HUH!? If u wan Nanyang Coffee, hav to top up $1. So I convinced her that the Kopi here is really gd, as wat the papers claimed.

We wanted to back out but we alr sat there for a gd 10 mins gasping at the menu.

So the sis decided ala carte 1 Nanyang White Kopi($2.20), 2 Eggs ($2.10)& 1 slice of Bread with Kaya n Butter ($1.20) whereas I had a PB Thick Toast($2.50) + 1 Nanyang White Kopi and the mum had her Polo Bun with Chicken Ham & Cheese($3.80) with 1 Kopi-0($1.80)


Ok the signature Nanyang White coffee was FABULOUS as waat the papers said. Really it has a bittersweet after taste and My My the milky taste is Wonderful. Am I in Vietnam rite now? AHHHH This so reminda me of Vietnam coffee! Even the froth is yummy and carries a strong coffee taste.


The mum liked her Kopi-O too!



The Polo Bun with Chicken Ham & Cheese was normal, however luckily, unlike Crystal Jade's polo buns, these aren't too sweet, yet it was normal in other words.


The Kaya Toast looked like charcoal but dun belittle this 'piece of coal'. The velvety kaya gives off the aura of coconut but dun worry it isnt too overpowering and the crispiness of the bread combined with a little butter (luckily only a little if not WAH so fattening) does command it being deserved the title of "Best Toast"


The PB Thick Toast was ordinary, I think I still like Toast Box's best.


2 Eggs on Toast

The sis ordered 2 eggs but they heard wrongly and gave 2 eggs on toast and they were quite unprofessional in it. "Sry, once the order is out, u cant change it." the waitress quipped.

But it was no fault of ours, the waitress who took our orders heard wrongly and thus ticked wrongly. Plus, if it's the mistake of ur fellow colleague, I'm sure it doesnt take much to help rectify rite?

Sooo... only come when u really feel there's money in ur pocket if not Toast Box wld suffice :)

Cos u hav to queue up and take ur own order via an order chit, yet also pay the 10% svc charge. Soooo.... if ya in Malaysia and miss Old Town, Grab it there, dun patronise it in SG. It's the same as Secret Recipe, they sell for the same price but in Malaysia it's in RM, whereas in SG it's SING DOLLARS!

Kopi Cats

Well well... I hav been real busy recently. busy getting sick tt is :( Arghh...
Anw chanced upon Lifestlye's review titled "Kopi Cats"

Ohhhh..it's got my taste buds tantalised! I've been eating bread with kaya for my meals bcos I'm so lazy to get out of the hse & also lazy to cook. Hah so what a surprise when I saw this article today.

Hmm they say tt Wang cafe has got the Best Eggs, no doubt its coffee is also gd; Best kopi for Oldtown White Coffee, really the way they write it, it really sounds like gd coffee mayb even better than Vietnam coffee; and best toast for Good Morning Nanyang Cafe, which also recommends its toast & eggs cooked to a perfect consistency.

Now Now... who's game fo tasting? :D (wait till i recover! LOL.)

Simply Blissful, Simply Bread

Wat happens after U hav ran 5 km before 9am?

U R REAL HUNGRY....so u wan BRUNCH!

Ok ok, I lied yet again, I didnt finish my 5 km more of 4 km. But hey I did work out abit. That's a consolation rite? LOL. (the fren ran 15km -Yikes! I feel so embarrassed)



Alright along with the fren, we came to Simply Bread. The fren highly recommends this place, being a real Bread FAN (we both are), I agreed readily. Nowww, I sound like a real nob there. But the fren has practically tried everythingggg on the menu. U DIDNT SEE WRONGLY. YESSSS E-V-E-R-Y-T-H-I-N-G!

Sooooo.... Under her recommendation, I got the Tuna Melt and freshly-brewed Cappucinno. Whichhhhhh really, literally melted my heart. Meltz. You will see y with this photo.




Imagine the cheese oozing with every bite and I had to juggle with trying not to make myself too unglam whilst enjoying my meal. U can choose the type of bread served, I chose Pesto Ciabiatta (not sure they did even serve me that). Usually the options are White, Wholemeal & Ciabiatta but I mean u cld alw request. U pay for ur food rite? As long as u do not get overboard, I;m sure they will be more than pleased to satisfy u. Yet the cheese doesnt get too cloyingly sick. It's a decent portion for a decent price. The fren and I both agree that it's certainly cheaper than Cedele for the same standard or perhaps even better. My Tuna Melt was S$10 & the cappuccino was S$3.25. The coffee (obviously ang-moh style) was not tt bad, at least for my standards so I wont complain. Bcos till now, I still think Vietnam serves one of the world's best kopi (perhaps more Asian Style).



The fren had sth simpler - Two Eggs (S$6.50) on their Breakfast Menu. It was simple, just 2 sunny side-up with 2 slices of bread but the fren enjoyed it nonetheless. Guilt overwhelmed me. I worked out lesser but ate more. HAHAHAH nvm I'll compensate it another time! (or jus let it pass? -gushes)

Now, satisfied & full.




Well, the fren says it's usu quite crowded on wkends as many expats and their families will dine here, so the best timing to chill out here is during wkdays. If unable to get a seat during wkends, take a look at their bread bar. They serve HUMONGOUS LOAVES for sth smaller if u wld to get it at Cedele. Their bread rolls looks real gd too. Pity I was too full to try out others. This certainly wld be the place I'm coming back for more.

Not to mention Dao Paolo Gastromania downstairs & Relish bext door! Yums Yums.
