This was one of those experiences that changed my life. At that time a few months back, I was at a crossroads paved into ennui. A depravity of inspiration, of novelty and whimsy in gastronomy. Then came along Eli. Then came along Pita Bakery. It was love at first sight and love at first bite, respectively of course. Enchanté, I was never happier.

📍 THE PLACE
Bordered on the outskirts of eclectic Kampong Glam on Bali Lane, Pita Bakery is a cozy shack with just 5 tables (3 inside, 2 outside), but makes up for its unassuming tiny space with its moreish Mediterranean food that keeps a loyal band of falafanatics (falafel and fanatics get it hah) coming back for weekly takeaways and outsiders into the fold.

🍽 THE FOOD
1️⃣ Fill Free ($9) - the holy grail, a beatific combination of Middle Eastern flavours stuffed into a pillowy, fresh-baked pita. We’re talking bountiful balls of scrumptious falafels and crisp turshi topped with a tantalizing blend of tahini, harissa and amba
2️⃣ Hummus ($4) - , thoughts?
3️⃣ Take It Easy ($8) - while the naming conventions may seem like something straight out of a comic book café, make no mistake, this is a place that gets their Middle Eastern food right. 8 balls of warm, crunchy and seductive falafel nestle in a perfectly shaped wooden tube, fresh for the picking to be dipped into either the hummus or harissa that these eight little dwarves come with

🤔 THE VERDICT
If you’re like me and find yourself falling in love with a Jew with no idea how to get around Kosher laws on food by the third date, look no further than Pita Bakery, which happens to be Halal, Vegan AND Kosher. On god do I dream of the pitas from there at times.

Egg Stop serves up wonderfully hearty egg sandwiches that are in essence, Korean Gilgeori toasts with familiar Western flavours such as their Avocado and Egg sandwich ($7.90). I had their Smoked Chicken sandwich ($5.50), a beautifully buttered toast filled with fluffy scrambled eggs, pulled smoked chicken and Sriracha mayonnaise. The bread was nicely toasted with a simple crisp in the bite and soft throughout. Sweetness from the chicken, a subtle spice from the Sriracha mayonnaise and the creaminess of the scrambled egg all played together harmoniously to create a comforting and all-in-all delicious egg sandwich.
