Swiss Baeckerei and Killiney Kopitiam

Boy suggested we have breakfast. So being 2 lazy people a place selling breakfast all day will be the ideal solution.

Ok, i decided to have an ang moh breakfast to make me feel like a tai tai. To drink english breakfast and do people watching is a luxury right? So here comes the english breakfast.

Tea wasn't served with milk. :( No creamer on the table. How come? Did the boss forget?





The name of this dish was savoury crepe. So we thought the main will be a crepe?

Was served with scrambled eggs that was moist and warm. not like artificially yellow eggs from macdonalds. The sausage was good. they didn't specify it will be served with a sausage thou. Not too salty or over spiced. but the skin was off the sausage, i think fire too big. The crepe in contrast didn't taste savoury as described by the menu, it was rather tasteless. But, the whole dish was still very much enjoyable, i guess serving was quite huge and boss wasn't stingy with eggs. Sausage was as large as the plate.







This is the rosti meal.

Even though in marche, you see the chef tossing the rosti in oil, it was still delicious. The rosti here manage to turn out crispy and good without tasting a tinge of oil. Rosti was thin and evenly cooked with the edges well done and not chao da. Salad had special dressing which was a mix of vinegarette and thousand island? Fusion is the new trend. Sausage served was succulent and had good 口感. not too hard. but the skin was slightly rubbery to cut thru. tasted quite full of spices.



Auntie note: Not a very cheap eat out. Tea was served at $3.50 per cup but you can ask for refills of hot water, so save the tea bags. Parking wise i think no need to pay, you can look out from the shop.



Being people with huge appetites, we headed to Siglap and continued our breakfast fix.

Killiney coffee shop for breakfast set.

Had french toast which was rather disappointing. Because it was quite tasteless, not sweet and no taste of eggs. Kaya served was ok, jus sweet.



And of course we had our half boiled eggs. best thing on earth. Expensive thou. if i'm not wrong $1.60 for 2.



Auntie note: A cheaper place to have tea as compared to the nearby cafe.

another siglap find.

werner's oven located at a rather deep location, amidst the other busy places. smacked right beside NTUC and some coffeeshop, werner's oven is not jus another eatery. the ambience of the place itself is quite ATAS. stepping into the shop you'll see some logos mounted, showing the specialties for the day, this is a rather typical way to attract customers i should say. and the beer logos shows that the place serves various imported beer. there are also some vintage pictures on the wall showing the boss and lady boss's photos. they used to be at Simpang Bedok in 1980s i think, and the boss is a real ang moh, i think most prob a German.

We order 2 main course, one of them being the all-time-favourite. Farmer's sausage. $21.50
served with soured cabbage and potato salad.

sausage was firm and juicy, not burnt. it was pipping hot when served.
the cabbages (German name: Sauerkraut) on the side isn't any simple preserved veg. its actually tradition soured cabbage that germans eat. The cabbages are fermented as it was believed that this can enhance the nutritional value of the cabbages.
Even thou this is suppose to be a healthy food, it wasn't to my liking as normally only spoilt vegetables taste sour. Not to offend anyone, but this jus isn't the ordinary vegetables we eat everyday. Perhaps for those who appreciate fermented vegetables, this will be perfect.

the pork sausage itself was spice loaded. With garlic, Parsley, and some chilli. the taste is very flavourful in each and every mouth. i don suggest biting it straight as it doesn't look very pleasant. the outer layers of the sausage is quite chewy but not at all difficult to swallow.

potato + Sauerkraut + sausage = Happy face

Boy's order was (German name: Grünkohl mit Rauchwurst und Kasslersmoked) sausage & smoked pork loin served with green kale & sauteed potatoes. $23.50 i should say this is a better choice than mine. the sides that comes along is stir fried potato and bacon together with "MEI CAI" (grren kale) you must be thinking why mei cai right. but ya, it is mei cai. perhaps germans do like some fermented veggies afterall. but something to note will be the delicious potato. fragrant and well blended with the bacon to give you many different textures.

Juicy sausage

Pork loin was rather dry but tasted good. boy came up w the idea that we should cut it into smaller pieces so that its easy to bite. this piece of loin came with some fat trimmings at the side which gave a good balance to the meat in adding some moisture. i like meat with some fats, its not as delicious if it was too lean. eating meat is not chewing gum.

Last but the best, this is apple spritzer. another version of zapple + sparkling juice. special as its an interesting flavour. and slightly sour to take away the meaty smell that lingers in your mouth.

Auntie note: its quite an expensive place, they do serve plain water if you are on a tighter budget. food wise 1 main is each filling enough
