These are what you’d expect from a good croissant — buttery, flakey and delicious, with the added bonus of sweet filling.
My favourite was definitely the 𝐑𝐚𝐬𝐩𝐛𝐞𝐫𝐫𝐲 𝐂𝐢𝐧𝐧𝐚𝐦𝐨𝐧 𝐂𝐫𝐨𝐢𝐬𝐬𝐚𝐧𝐭; the same delicious flaky pastry encasing a vibrant, tart and barely sweet raspberry filling. The 𝐏𝐢𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐜𝐡𝐢𝐨 version was also delicious, but sadly doesn’t taste much like pistachio. I really enjoyed it but I wish it had a stronger nutty flavour.
Although I’m not a fan of lemon, the 𝐋𝐞𝐦𝐨𝐧 𝐂𝐫𝐨𝐢𝐬𝐬𝐚𝐧𝐭 was surprisingly delightful, and not overwhelming in lemon flavour.

They are pretty small croissants at $8 for 2, but I think they’re interesting, and tasty enough to be worth a try!

The generosity of Roti’s fillings is definitely their strong point, with this 𝐎𝐩𝐞𝐧 𝐒𝐞𝐬𝐚𝐦𝐞 𝐁𝐮𝐧 ($𝟏) serving as the perfect testament for that.

Despite the monstrous amount of filling, the black sesame wasn’t too overpowering, BUT I would owe that to the fact that it’s not very flavourful to begin with ☹️ Tbh, the black sesame flavour just isn’t very rich, taking a backseat to the buttery taste of the bun. The texture was also a bit sandy, even though it was a paste.

With that said, I would still say that this is a decent bun! I really love black sesame and for $1, yea, I’d get it again!

This 𝐎𝐫𝐡 𝐍𝐞𝐞 𝐛𝐮𝐧 ($𝟏.𝟐𝟎) from Roti might be the best yam bun I’ve tried in SG, and a very decently priced one at that!

The quality of the yam paste is definitely its strong point, it tastes exactly like a good, pure orh nee packed into a soft and chewy bun. The filling isn’t the chunky type, but rather a completely smooth and creamy one, also not too sweet!

Hands down my favourite place for claypot rice! We got the large claypot ($36) intended for 5-6 persons, filled with generous amounts of tender chicken chunks, pork belly, lup cheong, salted fish and vegetables.
The ingredients were tossed in the most delicious and fragrant dark sauce, with the overall sweetness matched by a deep smokiness from being cooked over charcoal. We broke up and mixed in the layer of burnt rice at the bottom, adding a nice crispy touch.

The portion was definitely more than enough for the 5 of us, as we ordered sides too. The sides do get quite pricey, but my recommendation would be the Prawn Roll ($11.80), it was really to die for! I was blown away by the thin and crispy outer encasing the juicy meat filling. The sauce from the Tofu with Crab Meat ($18.80) was also a really great addition to the rice.

I don’t even like sar poh fan that much but I love this place! If you’re going, definitely preorder your claypot rice to save you the 30min+ waiting time!

The 𝐩𝐢𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐜𝐡𝐢𝐨 𝐠𝐚𝐧𝐚𝐜𝐡𝐞 was hands down my favourite, the smooth and nutty filling was unmatched in flavour. The 𝐜𝐫𝐞𝐦𝐞 𝐛𝐫𝐮𝐥𝐞𝐞 came in a close second, the creamy custard balanced out by the crunchy charred top.

I know a lot of people love the 𝐏𝐁&𝐉, but it was alright, the jam was really too sweet and tasted quite artificial. But PB&J is never a bad combo 🤷🏻‍♀️. The 𝐜𝐡𝐨𝐜𝐨𝐥𝐚𝐭𝐞 𝐫𝐨𝐚𝐬𝐭𝐞𝐝 𝐡𝐚𝐳𝐞𝐥𝐧𝐮𝐭 was decadent and rich, tasted like a better nutella haha. The 𝐯𝐚𝐧𝐢𝐥𝐥𝐚 𝐠𝐥𝐚𝐳𝐞𝐝 was nice, you can definitely get a good feel of the quality of their dough on this one.

Sadly, the 𝐭𝐚𝐫𝐨 𝐜𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐦 was a miss. I love taro, and the filling by itself tasted really good quality. But the combination with the dough just didn’t work for me.

The dough itself is quality! Perfectly soft and definitely on the chewier side, which I love. They’re supposedly baked as well, glad that they weren’t too oily! Also, I think they could do without the coating sugar on top tbh but they’re still really well balanced!

𝐑𝐲𝐞 𝐂𝐡𝐨𝐜𝐨𝐥𝐚𝐭𝐞 𝐏𝐫𝐮𝐧𝐞 𝐓𝐞𝐚 𝐂𝐚𝐤𝐞 ($𝟓.𝟓𝟎) - 𝟗.𝟓/𝟏𝟎
The perfect decadent and indulgent chocolate cake. The huge sticky chunks of prune mixed into the batter really brought out and elevated the chocolate. Surprisingly, even though the cake was so fudgy and thick, it didn’t feel too jelak. It also tastes like they used different kinds of quality cocoa in this, that produced that depth in flavour.

𝐑𝐲𝐞 𝐇𝐚𝐳𝐞𝐧𝐮𝐭 𝐀𝐥𝐦𝐨𝐧𝐝 𝐁𝐫𝐨𝐰𝐧𝐢𝐞 ($𝟓.𝟓𝟎) - 𝟏𝟎/𝟏𝟎
Everyone recommended the brownie and it’s definitely worth the rave!! The texture of this was really so amazingly and skilfully done. There was a bite to it, with something I can only describe as layers, of chocolate that melded together as you bit into it. The whole hazelnuts and almonds contrasted the gooey pockets of chocolate, accompanied by a pleasant element of flakey salt.
The only thing is that the almonds lost their crunch a little, but that’s just me being picky. This was definitely a favourite

𝐒𝐩𝐞𝐥𝐭 𝐋𝐞𝐦𝐨𝐧 𝐒𝐞𝐬𝐚𝐦𝐞 𝐓𝐞𝐚 𝐂𝐚𝐤𝐞 ($𝟓.𝟓𝟎) - 𝟗.𝟓/𝟏𝟎
Looks like a simple, unassuming tea cake, but of course this as well was amazing. This was so delicious, the lemon flavour with the encompassed in a light, moist and buttery cake, accompanied by the contrast of the small sesame seeds.

𝐌𝐭 𝐅𝐮𝐣𝐢 𝐍𝐚𝐛𝐞 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝟏 ($𝟏𝟒.𝟗𝟎)

The quality of the beef and pork are decent considering the price and the amount. It came with a small side salad, ramen noodles , and the other ingredients in the pot include cabbage, some other leafy vegetable, and SO MUCH TAU GAY

The monstrous amount of tau gay made the whole broth taste like nothing... but tau gay 😔. Only after we topped up the soup nearer the end, did I get to taste the actual broth, and it’s actually very tasty on it’s own! But also because of of the amount of ingredients, mainly beansprouts, the soup took very very long to boil 🥴

Ok, to be fair it’s interesting, and really isn’t bad for the amount that they give you, but it’s honestly just a novelty dish.

This 𝐒𝐚𝐤𝐮𝐫𝐚 𝐂𝐡𝐨𝐜𝐨𝐥𝐚𝐭𝐞 𝐓𝐚𝐢𝐲𝐚𝐤𝐢 ($𝟐.𝟕𝟎) is a flavour on limited offer, with a cherry (i think) & chocolate filling!

As someone who loved mochi, the texture definitely hit the spot for it was SOOO incredibly chewy 🥰 I was lucky to get it fresh, so it was still warm, with a delightful slightly crisp outer surface. I also loved that the filling was substantial and evenly dispersed LOL. (Tbh it’s my greatest pet peeve when it’s uneven and you can’t get filling in every bite)

A surprisingly mountainous portion of 𝐌𝐞𝐥𝐨𝐧 𝐗 𝐒𝐞𝐚 𝐒𝐚𝐥𝐭 - 𝐑𝐞𝐠𝐮𝐥𝐚𝐫 ($𝟓.𝟒𝟎) was packed into a tiny regular cup, its pretty swirls topped with 3 marshmallows skewered by a chocolate pocky!
At first bite, the sea salt flavour was a delightful mix of the creamy, milky base with a tinge of saltiness. But as we continued with a few more spoons, the cloying dessert left a sickly-sweet feeling in our throats.

The melon flavour was interesting, but again backed with a sharp and artificial tasting sweetness. When eaten together, the artificial flavour was muted slightly, but didn’t do much to help the jelak-ness.

On a positive note, they really nailed the velvety soft serve texture, it was delightfully soft and creamy! Additionally, the portion size is pretty dang huge 😳, we should’ve just shared, or taken the $3.80 tubs they were offering that were on a 1-for-1 promo!

The highly raved 𝐔𝐣𝐢 𝐌𝐚𝐭𝐜𝐡𝐚 𝐂𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐦 & 𝐂𝐡𝐨𝐜𝐨𝐥𝐚𝐭𝐞 𝐁𝐮𝐧 ($𝟑) undoubtedly lives up to the hype.
This screams good quality matcha, with a distinct bitter-sweet flavour profile, weighing heavier on the bitter side. Although almost all the elements were just matcha, there were still different nuances that thwarted a potential one-dimensional flavour; the contrasting textures and the smooth creaminess of the matcha filling complementing the crunchy matcha crumble on the top. The bread was airy, which was a good accompaniment to balance out the intense filling and toppings.

But, my biggest bread pet-peeve - the filling wasn’t very evenly dispersed. 😔 The chocolate sat in a corner, and I didn’t even notice it was there until I nearer the end of the bread. For the parts that I could taste it, it went really well with the matcha!

This 𝐕𝐞𝐠𝐚𝐧𝐥𝐢𝐜𝐢𝐨𝐮𝐬 ($𝟏𝟔) bowl 🍃 tastes as vibrant as it looks! Sitting on neutral base of spinach and tri-coloured quinoa, the flavour of the individual ingredients really shone through!

I LOVED their beetroot hummus, a perfect amount of garlicky notes encompassed in a smooth creamy paste. An interesting ingredient was the vegan cashew cheese??? This was my first time trying it and it SO GOOD! The super strong and earthy notes of the ‘cheese’ lent a strong but good pop of flavour to the dish. The raw onions helped to cut through the strong flavours of the hummus and the cheese, with a hint of sweetness coming through in the form of dried cranberries and roasted carrots . The carrots were cooked sooo perfectly 🤤 lending a pleasant mellow sweetness.

For $16, it’s in the rather pricier range of salad bowls, but it’s a really filling portion! I think that their merit lies in the freshness of the ingredients, and the way they’ve managed to piece together flavours that complement each other so well!!

This 𝐒𝐭𝐢𝐜𝐤𝐲 𝐁𝐮𝐧 ($𝟐.𝟓𝟎) has the perfect pull-apart dough: a pillowy-soft yeasted bun that was fluffy, but yet so incredibly chewy and substantial. It’s slathered with a thick coat of sweet gooey cinnamon glaze and... omg I’m losing my mind over a sticky bun 😭
It’s sweet, as a sticky bun should be, without being too cloying, I could literally down 5 of these in one sitting. Also, amidst my excitement, I forgot I wanted to toast it but I’m sure they would be EVEN BETTER warm ok
