Coffee Break

Recently, I revisited this stall at Hong Lim Food Centre because of the cashback event from DBS Paylah app. I used the app to get my coffee or breakfast set. It was pretty good until the recent visit, I realized that the toast portion seemed shrunk a lot.

Their coffee is sock-brewed the traditional way, which is less time-consuming. Sock-brewed coffee is something that Singaporeans are very familiar with, and it is inexpensive. They use Robusta beans are used in making traditional kopi drinks. These are roasted with sugar and margarine, which she highlighted brings out the natural flavours of the beans while keeping the cost low. – Picked up the info from TodayOnline.com

A visit on May 5, 2023

The price seemed to increase and the portion of the toast seemed to shrink. Inside the paper bag, it has two pieces of bread. On their menu board, the kaya butter toast costs SGD3.00, excluding drinks.

Back on Sept 15, 2022

The same kaya butter toast but the portion was double. It is true inflation in Singapore. I felt I enjoyed it more back then, and I think it is too expensive for me to have a toast at this coffee stall.

Moving forward,

While there are other flavoured toasts recommended by Singapore food bloggers, I think I will just get a cup of their local coffee or flavoured coffee. Their drink is still generous. If you are keen to try a full morning Singaporean breakfast, we can get it somewhere else. Furthermore, another local coffee brand, Generation Coffee Roasters (#01-59) opens at the same food centre.

Address: 531A Upper Cross St, Hong Lim Food Centre, #02-41, Singapore 051531.
Google rating: 4.2 stars. (IMHO, I will give it a 4.0 star)

Coffee And Toast

Coffee And Toast, Tampines Mall, Singapore.

Calling colleague for breakfast after skipping my usual breakfast at home before start working. I stayed late the night before to prepare for data migration work and woke up at normal hours to go to work.
Coffee and Toast
It is my first visit to this shop in Tampines, it is hardly to see me go for breakfast outside. It has a nice environment, spacious, quiet and located at the side way between Tampines Mall and Century Square.
Coffee and Toast
Both of us ordered the same set which comes with half-boiled eggs, coffee or tea and toasts.
Coffee and Toast
Two lovely half-boiled eggs, and hot tea. It is good to pour some soya sauce and put some pepper into the half-boiled eggs before mixing the egg’s yolks.
Coffee and Toast
And, my preferable way of eating toast is dipping the toast into the half-boiled eggs. It seems to be a perfect match for me. Of course, many of us would prefer to eat the crispy toasted bread alone.
Coffee and Toast
This is a very filling breakfast and it is good to start working now 🙂

Location: #01-45, Tampines Mall, 4, Tampines Central 5, Singapore
Ambiance: Nice, quiet, spacious and relaxing corner. It is not noisy during the time I visited the place.
Rating: 3/5. This breakfast set is worthy to give a try. Although, it might be slightly expensive for such simple breakfast which can be made from home, we can save the hassle of preparing the half-boiled eggs and toast.
