A rather interesting combination of ingredients on this Tarte Flambé ($24) I must say! It was a smattering of savoury and sweet toppings including dehydrated apple, asparagus, rocket, bacon and cheese. We requested to swap out the blue cheese for Parmesan as we were wary of the pungency of the former :p Though it tasted decent, it's probably not a pizza combo that I would go for if I had other options.
Not just a newcomer to the scene, Merci Marcel is one of those cafes where you can get an out-of-Singapore experience with its French-styled interior and gorgeous brick-walled outdoor dining area. A selection of their usual main dishes are available for brunch as well, and we found some interesting dishes such as the Marinated Crab Tartine ($18). A generous portion of crab was spread on soft sourdough bread, and topped with avocado, alfalfa and radishes.

A really innovative twist on the ubiquitous French dish, it featured surprisingly tender, juicy duck pieces atop Tagliatelle tossed in a hazelnut cream sauce. Loved the bits of hazelnut in it which added a crunchy texture, as well as the sprinkle of Parmesan sautéed spinach which completed the dish. #burpple
The Berry Ricotta Hotcake ($14.90) and Peach & Raisin Ricotta Hotcake ($14.90) were just soooo good, with their incredibly fluffy, cake-like texture. Appreciate the sunflower/pumpkin seed mix l which added texture to the fluffiness and the subtle drizzle of lavender sauce on the vanilla bean ice cream. Definitely recommend sharing this, and you'll not regret! #burpple #brunch #breakfast

This comes with half portions of each dish, but honestly, it was filling enough to feed me for two meals. The dishes packed a punch with their spicy flavour and we were thankful for the cold drink on the side to provide some respite. #burpple
Finally made it down to taste homegrown #modsin Chef Shen Tan's creations! The Shendol Delights ($10) is a twist on chendol, featuring a coconut #pannacotta that had a rather interesting mouthfeel - more smooth and creamy, rather than the usual wobbly texture. Drizzled with gula melaka, topped with chendol and served with house made red bean ice cream, this was a pretty good interpretation of one of my favourite local desserts! #burpple
