    Does it still have the air conditioned golf buggies?!

  • Rokeby in The Ultimate Guide to Eggs Benedict in Singapore

    I went for their rather extravagant Fois Gras Benedict ($21.90) having never tried this combination previously. The dish was neatly presented, the eggs were of very good quality and well poached. The slightly glazed hollandaise sauce was a little lacking in a distinctive flavour but the consistency was good. Finally, the seared fois gras added a depth of rich flavour which was perhaps a little too much for me, but I'm glad I tried it and it was beautifully cooked.

  • Meat Smith in The Ultimate Guide to Burgers in Singapore

    Enjoyed dropping by this venue for lunch and would certainly recommend the Brisket Sandwiches, they have a choice of beef, pulled pork, and chicken. I went for the Beef Brisket and really enjoyed the overall flavours, tender meat and fresh rocket. If you're really hungry it would be worth having with a side dish since it does not come with fries.

  • Baker and Cook in The Ultimate Guide to Eggs Benedict in Singapore

    I went for their Eggs Benedict with Crispy Bacon ($17) and really enjoyed the stunning presentation of the dish. The hollandaise sauce was light in texture but a little too spicy for my liking when naturally combined with the drizzle of chilli oil and balsamic vinegar around the plate. I really enjoyed the fresh and well toasted bread base, spinach leaves, the well poached eggs of good quality and the crispy bacon.

  • Cafe Gavroche in The Ultimate Guide to Eggs Benedict in Singapore

    I am a big fan of this venue and had been meaning to drop by at the weekend for a while to sample their brunch menu. I went for their Oeufs Benedict ($22) and really enjoyed their traditional take on this dish. The hollandaise sauce was rich, creamy and delicious combining well with the crispy bacon. The eggs were of good quality but just a little over poached for my liking. I really enjoyed the surprising addition of fried potatoes and sausages that accompanied the dish.

  • The Provision Shop in The Ultimate Guide to Eggs Benedict in Singapore

    While it took me a little bit of time to locate The Provision Shop, it was well worth the effort. I went for their Almost a Florentine ($12) and really enjoyed the presentation and purposeful simplicity (paper plate, wooden knife and fork). The eggs were a little under poached for my liking but of good quality and the hollandaise sauce was excellent. The icing on the cake for me was the mixture of organic vegetables which greatly enhanced this novel take on Eggs Florentine.

  • Fiverr in How to find Programmers in Singapore

    My PHP website had a bug that wasn't letting users log in for some reason and my freelancer was on holiday, so I tried out Fiverr. I went for the cheapest option - a random guy for $5 who had decent but not great reviews - and he got the job done, though took 1.5 days to respond. Look into the reviews next time so you know what you're getting.

  • The Book Cafe in The Ultimate Guide to Eggs Benedict in Singapore

    I'm a big fan of cafes which double up as great venues to read your book or newspaper so I'd been looking forward to visiting this venue for a while. I went for their Eggs Benedict ($15.95) and enjoyed the good quality eggs that were well poached. While not listed on the menu, the fresh spinach leaf base came as a good addition alongside the decent quality honey baked ham and subtle but tasty hollandaise sauce. The rosti potato with a dollop of sour cream rounded off a very enjoyable brunch.

  • The Assembly Ground in The Ultimate Guide to Eggs Benedict in Singapore

    I liked the interior of this cafe and hipster theme despite its slightly out-of-place location on the ground floor of a modern shopping mall. I ordered their Eggs Benji ($16) and enjoyed the well poached eggs and accompanying golden yoke. The ham was of decent quality and placed rather artistically both underneath and on top of the poached eggs. Their hollandaise sauce had a good distinctive flavour and the honey mustard dressed side salad rounded off an enjoyable brunch.

  • Wild Honey in The Ultimate Guide to Eggs Benedict in Singapore

    I went for their European Eggs Benedict and really enjoyed the presentation of the dish. The brioche base was fresh and gently toasted, the eggs were of good quality and very well poached. I really enjoyed the subtle layer of sauteed mushrooms alongside the rich and creamy hollandaise sauce which had a hint of citrus to it. The good quality prosciutto ham rounded off a very enjoyable and richly flavoured dish.

  • Riders Cafe in The Ultimate Guide to Eggs Benedict in Singapore

    I really enjoyed the setting of Riders Cafe which is surrounded by the Bukit Timah Saddle Club stables and tropical greenery of Singapore. It is worth booking in advance because there was a 30 minute wait for a table when I arrived. I went for their Blackstone Benedict ($16) which was well presented. The eggs were of good quality and well poached, the bacon and tomatoes were delicious. Their hollandaise sauce was the only let down in both its lack of succinct flavour and minimalist serving.

  • Five & Dime in The Ultimate Guide to Eggs Benedict in Singapore

    I'd noticed Five & Dime when driving past previously and was keen to see what lay behind the doors of this boutique cafe. I went for their Eggs Benny ($18) and really enjoyed its presentation. The eggs were of good quality and well poached. I really enjoyed the hollandaise sauce, slightly spicy roasted potatoes, side salad, and the fruit salad which was a novel addition to the overall flavours. The wagyu beef was a little stringy and lacking in a strong enough flavour to really add to the dish.

  • db Bistro & Oyster Bar in The Ultimate Guide to Burgers in Singapore

    I'd heard good things about the burgers at DB Bistro so was excited to try it before going to a play at the MBS Theatre opposite the restaurant. The atmosphere at DB Bistro is one of fine dining and the service matches the high standards set. I went for their Frenchie Burger and thought the meat was excellent. I also really enjoyed the three accompanying sauces that came alongside the burger and crispy fries. While it was a delicious meal I was hoping for just a little more unique flavour.

  • Pacamara Boutique Coffee Roasters in The Ultimate Guide to Eggs Benedict in Singapore

    I really liked the modern and bright feel to Pacamara alongside the dedication you sense to their craft. Their Truffle Benedict was beautifully presented with two well poached eggs of good quality. I really enjoyed the spinach which was layered between the brioche base and honey baked ham. Their signature truffle hollandaise sauce blended well with all the other flavours and certainly made for a unique and rich tasting variation on this traditional dish.
