๐น Rose Pistachio Croissant ($6.80): Pistachio cream + white chocolate glazed + rose
This was so wonderfully executed but I have some reservations about itโs high price point. An occasional premium treat perhaps, sobs. [Motherโs Day special - currently discontinued but do look out for their other seasonal specials]
๐ฅ Salted Caramel Cube Croissant ($4.80): Sea salt caramel + vanilla cream filling + caramelised walnuts
Overall, a great place in the heartlands to grab freshly made #croissants and #sourdoughs !

๐: The Bread Rack, 9 Yio Chu Kang Road, #01-55, Space@Kovan, S545523
Even though they have expanded to 9 outlets across SG, we keep coming back to the OG stall at Hougang for the cheaper hawker pricing and 24/7 operating hours.
๐ต๐ป๐ Recommendations:
โ
Go for the qq mee kia (like a thinner flat bodied mee pok, FYI noodle pull was for mee pok though)
โ
Springy handmade fishballs
โ
Poached buttery pork livers (served dry with chill or with soup)
โ
Tasty broth with floating layer of minced meat

Al dente mee kia tossed in perfect umami hae bee sambal and whatever good things that make the chilli sauce (I had requested for vinegar to be omitted). Pork slices were tender and melt in mouth while pork liver tasted soft and not metallic. Fishball tastes like manufactured supermarket standards and not handmade types. Could also do with inclusions of fresh vegetables like lettuce?
Overall a comforting meal that ticks all my boxes for a good substitute for pricey ramens! Excited to try the Spicy Volcano Mee Kia Soup next!

Chirashi Don ($23.80 nett): Thick slices of sashimi that will quell all sashimi cravings for at least a month - or maybe lesser for me as I canโt wait to head back and try the rest of the Japanese dons on the menu ๐๐ป
๐ฐ๐ก: Reasonably priced for the quality.

Bara Chirashi Don ($18.80 nett): Obscenely gorgeous plating and presentation! Ratio of fish (already very generous) to rice is remarkable, just thick fat cubes of sashimi swimming in my mouth ๐๐
๐ฐ๐ก: Reasonably priced for the quality.

Great for those supper nights! ๐๐ฏ
What I liked were the sesame buns (slightly crispy exterior yet fluffy) and juicy patties! I also liked how the amalgamation of burger ingredients didnโt taste too oily for my palate and all tasted really premium and fresh! Bonus points for the crisp and thick cut fries!

A sister cafe of South Union Park offering similarly delectable cafe food at affordable price points (super pleased with the 1 for 1 deals offered by Entertainer and #Burpple Beyond). If I could only mention one gripe - it would be that the cafe can get quite noisy with the ambient noise from chatting patrons during peak dining times.
๐ฐ๐ก: 1 for 1 mains with #entertainer and #burpplebeyond

Cream puffs done right = crispy sugar crust on the outside and oozy thick generous but not gelat cream milky filling on the inside. This delectable #creampuff belongs on a premium tier. Steep price tag is justifiable for the quality. Be prepared to queue for seats in the small cafe during peak timings.
๐ฐ๐ก: Get the bundle of 3 promotion, to save 50 cents per cream puff.
