π·πI did not foresee myself enjoying the Pork & Pear Tartine ($20.9). I mean... bacon & pear?? Sounds like a hella odd combination π§ BUT I was pleasantly surprised by how well each of the ingredients complemented one another. (Though I must add that towards the end, the dish got a little too sweet for my palate)
π·π I loved the chewy texture of the Farro grains in the Miso Bacon Risotto ($23.50). Paired with fried enoki and bits of Miso Bacon, this dish was hearty and full of character (+ it definitely wasnβt as cloying as most risottos).
π Thought their Iced Mocha ($7.5) was rather disappointing. Tasted like an Iced Long Black with a dash of cocoa powder. π Would probably appreciate it if it was less diluted (more milk, less water).
$27 for The Breakfast Works. Not worth it if you do not have Burpple Beyond (1-for-1).
β€οΈ Loved the buttery toasted Brioche and the creamy texture of the scrambled eggs.
π Bacon was overcooked and a tad too salty (and dry) for my liking.
π€£ There was only ONE slice of βsmokedβ salmon (inverted commas cos TBH it just tasted like stale sashimi). For $27, I would definitely expect more, but since I was using Burpple Beyond, I have no complains!
βοΈ Coffee was amazing! We had a hot Mocha ($5.50) and a hot Vanilla Latte ($5.50). Full-bodied. Smooth. Loved it. π―
I would definitely come back here for a satisfying cuppa, but for the food... I guess thereβs still some room for improvement!
