Good Morning Nanyang Cafe : Yummy scones!

Didn't expect that they will have such yummy raisin scones here! (J: Unlike Cedele's scones which were more cakey, this scone is softer inside and not too dry! Previously when we tried their scones, they actually topped the scones with cinnamon n sprinkled some sugar on top which gives the scone extra crunch on e top crust. It's as though the top is caramelized.) The scone was served with strawberry jam when we 1st tried it. When we went back today, we requested the scones to be served with orange marmalade.

*Got to top up 50 cents if you want other jams!*

Scones with orange marmalade had a very special taste of e orange peel.

And we were lucky on saturday as the owner of the cafe, Bryon was there and he let us try the ginger jam from scotland! It was so delicious! Even better than the orange marmalade! Janelle and I both hate ginger because of the spicyness but this ginger jam is not spicy at all!

It was sweet with the ginger fragrance. Very refreshing! (J: It perks me up immediately)

It was the best jam we've tasted so far.

Feeling unsatisfied as usual, we order 2nd serving of the raisin scone each. And Bryon was kind enough to give us extra serving of ginger jam without charging us extra!

Wanted to buy the ginger jam but it was freaking ex!! $13 for a small bottle.

They do have other special jam such as strawberry with champagne. We would love to try it next time. Do try the ginger jam if you're there! Unique, refreshing & de-li-cious!

A's rating: 4.75/5 raisin scone, 4.75/5 ginger jam

J's rating: 4.6/5 raisin scone, 4.75/5 ginger jam

Barcook Bakery- so soft tt u can eat it w/o dentures!

The German Museli Loaf

Raisin Cream Cheese Bun just came out of the oven! So fat and fluffy!!

Look at the cheese oozing out!!! The bread is so soft!!

J: Oh no here I go again, WAHHHHH!!! i found my bread heaven in sg! Barcook Bakery serves the softest bread n buns u can ever find in sg! U can easily locate this shop at hong lim complex simply by following the smell of the bread loaves. Upon reaching, it's no surprise to see a long queue unless u really reach early in e morning when they just opened n most bread arent ready yet lol. The best seller of this bakery is of course their raisin cream bun ($1.30). It is sooooo soft, airy n fluffy! Their cream cheese oozes out of the bun when u sink ur teeth into it! The cream cheese texture is cream n not too sticky. Its not too heavy to make u feel sick after finishing 1 bun. Everytime i finish 1 raisin cream i regretted not buying 2! And needless to say, its best eaten IMMEDIATELY when its just out of the oven n e bun is still fat n hot haha. Trust me, it's isnt as nice when it gets cold n deflates into e flat raisin cream. Microwaving it at home doesnt raise its quality to tt when its just hot out of the oven.

My 2nd fav must be their german muesili loaf ($3.50) which is always reserved. So be sure to call n reserve it before collecting! They r really generous with the seeds n nuts in german muesili loaf. Best eaten within the 1st day bcos the bread is really soft. It is soo soft that u gotta hold it with both hands while eating bcos it gets flimsy lol.

A: Even someone like me who doesn't like cheese LOVE THIS CREAM CHEESE BUN!!

J & A's ratings: 5/5 for raisin cream fresh out of the oven, 4.75/5 for german muesili loaf

Tong Ya Kaya Toast: Best toast in Singapore! We found it!

The crispiest toast in Singapore! We love Chinatown! That's where all the good food are. We were a little crazy that day. Normally people will eat their kaya toast in the morning but for us? We had it in the evening! haha..

A little insane but worth it! Another gem in Chinatown. We ordered the so called "Grade A" kaya toast, which is toast that was toasted earlier, set aside and toast it again when customer requested for the crispier kaya toast. You got to tell the owner you want the crisper version! If not, you'll end up getting the normal kaya toast. (U can actually c 2 diff packets of bread fr e stall, 1 is e normal white bread while e other has alr been toasted n will be retoasted when u request for tt!) The crust of the toast was so delicate that it broke off when we tried to dip into the soft boiled egg!

A: Tong Ya Kaya Toast will remain as my No.1 toast! Better than Ya Kun Kaya Toast. I must comment that their Teh 'C' Kao is the best i had in SG as well! It has the Ooomh factor! Shiok!

J: i thought ya kun's kaya toast is alr v crispy n nv did i think tt there exist an even crispier n such crumbly kaya toast which literally breaks off when dipped into e half boiled eggs! oh yes btw, 1 egg is definitely insufficient for 2 kaya toasts! i almost brushed e plate dry while dipping my toast in it lol. The kopi-o gao siu dai is also v shiok! however, it does lack in e acidic after taste unlike Wah Yen's kopi-o. i have difficulty choosing which kopi-o i like more bcos both r really gd but sis thought tt tong ya's kopi is better haha.

A's rating: kaya toast 4.75/5, Teh 'C' Kao 4.75/5

J's rating: 4.75/5 for kaya toast, Kopi-o gao siu dai 4.7/5
