Feeding on the industrial and casual laid back feel of this cafe .
Nasi Lemak chicken looked dry at first but it was actually crispy and moist. Rice was fluffy, except in small quantity. Sambal chilli was decently spicy.
Kaya toast was good, came with a nice blend of lemony and light Kaya taste.
Music was brilliant, great place to chill and do work.
Beautiful setting to have a chill lunch, with big fans and plenty of natural light. The menu is very small here, with simple dishes like Dry Mee Siam and Curry Chicken Noodles. I ordered the Curry Chicken Rice, which is darn great value for money. Delicious creamy curry with a lot of chicken and potatoes inside. Banchong also serves kaya toast with kaya that's quite subtle and not so sweet, if you like that.
We ordered the signature kaya toast set and curry noodles. It was a good hearty breakfast filled with Singaporean flavours.The curry with the noodles were legit spicy and not too thick with coconut milk. It was a warm comforting bowl. The kaya toast set was quite an expected experience and hard to go wrong. Within the Jalan Besar vicinity, so if you are near aperia mall be sure to drop by the vanguard campus to check this place out.
For people working around the Lavender/Kallang area, you have a beautiful space in Banchong Cafe where they serve local favourites such as coffee and toast, nasi lemak and a good bowl of curry chicken. We suspect that the potatoes might have been simmering in the curry for many hours as it’s soft and the spices have seeped into it. The curry gravy is thick, creamy and flavourful, very good with rice or bread.

And on my rest days, all I want is to some local food, coffee and toast, added bonus if the place is decorated as beautifully as Banchong Cafe.

Three reasons why I want to visit Banchong Cafe; firstly, I’m on leave, secondly, the cafe opens on Mondays and lastly, this cafe only operates from Mondays to Fridays which makes it almost impossible for me to get here if I’m working.
