Singapore #003 - Five & Dime

It's nice to meet up with the ladies again since it's been a while since we last met...

I got the car and drove everyone to Five & Dime for brunch...

Parking is convenient... they have quite a few lots just behind the cafe and FREE PARKING!

I called to make a reservation in advance to secure the seats... Place is quite small, maybe about 30 seats
Take note that brunch is served till 3pm only.

Egg Mayo & Bacon Panini ($12): The bread has a soft texture and sweet savory taste

Egg Benny ($16): The potatoes are grilled with some spices, very tasty. The bread and eggs is just perfect combination!

Buttermilk Pancakes ($15): Pancakes go well with the fruits

Overall food is good but price is too steep especially the drinks (Nutella milkshake at $12)

However the promo is a good deal. One for one - Somersby Apple Cider ($12 for 2 bottles)

Singapore #002 - The Fabulous Baker Boy

Every friday is a royal night... but I guess we ran out of ideas where to go and will end up at our usual spots. At first our plan was to pop in I.T. Label at Wisma to check out their sale but Lemo didn't want to go to Orchard. In the end we decided to go to Liang Court for KTV.

And dinner we settled ourselves nicely at The Fabulous Baker Boy. It looks secluded but it's easy to get over here. Cross the overhead bridge from Liang Court (level 2) and just walk into the foothills (previously the swimming pool).

It was crowded when we got there. The staff reminded us to make a reservation the next time as weekends are usually fully booked. The place isn't big and only outdoor seating is available.

Since the place is so small and crowded, I couldn't get a nice shot of the place.

Oh... remember to order the cakes together with your main dish. The cakes are really popular. At around 8pm, the red velvet cakes are already sold out!

Dining Area

Ju's Prawn Pappardelle (S$18): The tiger prawns are well done and fresh. The sauce blends in well with the prawns and pasta.

Fried Chicken with Waffles ($21): There's nothing special about the chicken. The highlight is the waffle with the maple syrup.

Beef Guinness Pie ver 2.0 ($18): The beef is soft and tender and has a strong beef taste (which I like) and the crust is very crispy!

Valrhona Chocolate Cake ($8): Extremely rich and not dry

Caribean Lemon ($7.50): The lemon fillings tasted similar to Kong Guan's biscuit Lemon filling. I will prefer this to be chilled before serving.
