  • 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.

  • Three Buns by Potato Head Folk in The Ultimate Guide to Burgers in Singapore

    I went for the Baby Huey burger ($18) on a recent visit to Potato Head for lunch. Really enjoyed the fresh ingredients and mixture of flavours that this burger delivers. The spiced mayonnaise and toasted brioche bun rounded off an experience that I'd be quite happy to repeat again soon.

  • Choupinette in The Ultimate Guide to Eggs Benedict in Singapore

    I like the unpretentious look and feel of this cafe and bakery. Opting for the Eggs Benedict set brunch menu, I was immediately excited by their generous serving of creamy hollandaise sauce which was delicious. The toasted bread base was really fresh and light and the thinly sliced ham on top was of good quality. The eggs were very well poached but lacked the truly golden yoke that I associate with high quality eggs. A very enjoyable dish and one of the best hollandaise sauces yet.

  • Kith Cafe (Sentosa Cove) in The Ultimate Guide to Eggs Benedict in Singapore

    Great venue which has a real holiday feel about it on a sunny morning and overlooks the Marina at Sentosa Cove. Their Blackstone Eggs Benedict had been recommended to me by a friend and it didn't disappoint. The eggs were well poached and of good quality with a runny orange yoke. I really enjoyed the novelty of placing both eggs on a roasted tomato. The crispy bacon was a fine addition along with the grilled asparagus on the side. Their hollandaise sauce rounded off an excellent breakfast.

  • The Missing Pan in The Ultimate Guide to Eggs Benedict in Singapore

    I was torn between the two fantastic looking eggs benedict options on their menu and ended up going for their Salmon Gravlax Eggs Benedict. It was beautifully presented and made for a rich combination of flavours. The smoked salmon was really fresh and combined well with their home baked brioche and creamy hollandaise sauce. The eggs were of good quality and well poached with a runny yoke. I very much enjoyed the accompanying mixed salad that enhanced what was a very enjoyable experience.

  • Forty Hands in The Ultimate Guide to Eggs Benedict in Singapore

    I'm a big fan of Tiong Bahru and I'd been recommended Forty Hands by a brunch loving friend. I went for their Eggs Benedict with organic bacon and really enjoyed the addition of baby spinach leaves on their thin toasted muffin base. The eggs were of good quality but perhaps slightly under poached and a little too runny for my liking. I really liked the addition of diced roasted potatoes to mop up the egg yoke and hollandaise sauce but would have preferred them not to be as spicy.

  • Common Man Coffee Roasters in The Ultimate Guide to Eggs Benedict in Singapore

    I'd been meaning to drop by Common Man Coffee Roasters for a while and was told to arrive in good time on Saturday morning to avoid a queue. Their Organic Eggs Benedict was beautifully presented. I really enjoyed the well poached organic eggs on the sourdough base. The addition of ox cheek is to be applauded for its originality but was a little too rich in taste for my liking at that time of the morning. The chive hollandaise sauce was good and I enjoyed the accompanying arugula salad.

  • The Black Swan in The Ultimate Guide to Burgers in Singapore

    I really like the atmosphere of this restaurant which is buzzing at lunch times during the week. Their set menu is a favourite of mine for working lunches and I tend to go for the Black Swan Burger when visiting towards the end of a busy week. They don't try to over complicate the burger and the ingredients they use are fresh and delicious, particularly the beef itself. Well worth visiting for this dish alone.

  • Maison Ikkoku in The Ultimate Guide to Eggs Benedict in Singapore

    I'd visited previously for their coffee and had recently been persuaded by a friend to try their eggs benedict. I went for their Signature Eggs Benedict and they had a special promotion on so my accompanying coffee was free. I enjoyed the presentation of the dish and the combination of flavours and ingredients certainly didn't let it down. The slightly glazed hollandaise sauce had a little spice to it which blended well with the toasted brioche, prosciutto ham, and beautifully poached eggs.
