SINGAPORE BRUNCH FILES: SELFISH GENE, PRIVE, MARMALADE PANTRY


Because brunch is such a big thing here in Singapore (I'm not complaining, I LOOVE IT!), I figured I'd post about some eateries I've visited and share my honest reviews in case you happen to be in the area or you know, you need new brunch spots. Bon appétit! 

1. Selfish Gene Cafe @ China Town

Nestled in a shophouse in Craig Road, this cafe prides itself with being selfish with the food they serve. Meaning, Gene is super picky and wouldn't serve food he himself wouldn't eat. Really enjoyed the truffle fries and the Iced Chai Latte. The Strawberry+Candied Bacon toast was good, although it gets overbearing after some time - best to share. 

2. Prive @ Chijmes

Brunch lovers rejoice; no need to go all the way to Sentosa! For Eggs Benedict fans, their straightforward serving is sure to check all the boxes - generous hollandaise, runny egg, and yummy smoked ham and homemade bacon. If traditional brunchfare isn't your thing, 2 words: wagyu burger. It's alfresco dining in Chijmes so it can get a bit warm, dress accordingly.

3. Marmalade Pantry @ ION Orchard

Take a break from shopping at ION and grab a meal at Marmalade Pantry - that is, if you don't mind waiting for a table. Since it's in the busiest mall in Orchard Road, it goes without saying that there is always a queue. The mains weren't as strong as their desserts so I'm thinking maybe next time, skip brunch and just go for coffee and cake.
