CrackerJack - Brunch Food : Funnel Cake (💵S$14) - Banana, Candied Bacon, Caramel, Amaretto Cream. 🍯
•
Everybody have is little gene inside them, tempting one to indulge into glorified sinful, sugary diabetic causing, arteries clogging dessert/sweets. It's hard to resist & even harder to stop when one give in. 😋
Especially when it's fried twirls of crunchy batter, topped with Banana, Caramel, Amaretto Cream & CANDIED BACON?! 🥓

ACAMASTIPS💮: Honestly, there's something in it that makes you crave for it. Like a drug, an acid. Wow I almost said yummy there, what the f*ck is happening to me. 🖖🏻

I've never had funnel cake outside the US so, this was an exciting order for me! This classic American carnival delight of a cross between churros and a donut (I also imagine it to be donut meets roti jala) - what could be better? The funnel cake ($14) is served drizzled with caramel, topped with bananas, candied bacon and a dollop of amaretto cream. Paired with a flat white ($5), this is a must order when visiting Crackerjack.
If you don't have a sweet tooth, this might be a bit much for you (you'd probably want to share). But if you do... hehe. 🤤

Ordered the Funnel Cake at Crackerjack because the food looks so Instagram worthy! Superficial reason to choose the sweet treat haha. The pancake taste very much like fried fritters which goes well with caramel, bananas and the candied bacon. Simple ingredients but a pleasurable indulgence!
This casual, all-day dining concept in Tanjong Pagar offers up wholesome dishes and a long cocktail menu for when night falls. Crackerjack takes its drinks seriously (prices range from $16 to $20), no surprise considering the people running it are from 28 HongKong Street and Proof & Company Spirits. Come by with a group of friends to unwind after work, or sit by the bar for an intimate catch-up. Have the Brandt Bavette Steak ($28) that comes with a unique grape salsa, and share the unique and refreshing Zucchini Farro Salad ($8). The latter is sprinkled with almonds, dates and sesame, and tossed in a tasty sour cream dressing. This is also a great spot for brunch, with tons of natural light streaming in, and is one of the few places in the CBD that is open on the weekend. Have the Horchata Pancakes (with bacon, $16) or the Funnel Cake ($14) that Burppler Veronica Phua loves. Described as "a deep-fried patty woven together by twirls of crunchy batter", the creation is then topped with slices of banana, candied bacon, and lashings upon lashings of salted caramel sauce. Wash it all down with an excellent cup of Flat White ($5) — beans are a custom blend from 2Degrees North.
Avg Price: $50 per person

Gag your conscience and stuff it in the closet because the Funnel Cake is bloody worth the calories.
Despite its name, don't believe for a minute that there's any light sponginess in this. Think instead of a deep-fried patty woven together by twirls of crunchy batter, and topped with slices of banana, candied bacon, a pouf of amaretto cream, a dusting of icing sugar, and lashings upon lashings of salted caramel sauce.
Is this worth getting out of bed on a weekend for? Hell yeah.
