[CLOSED] The Lokal

Long regarded as my top favourite sticky date pudding in Singapore, it never fails every single time I have had it. The warm fuzzy sponge cake with the sweet toffee sauce and icy cold vanilla ice cream are the perfect partners in this impeccable after-meal dessert. There might be many “best sticky date puddings” in town, but this one takes the crown.

One of the better beef burgers. It's really juicy and the inside was a perfect medium rare. Slightly heavy handed on the mustard, and could do w a bit more flavour. Nonetheless pretty good, no regrets ordering this. Friend said wolf burger has a cheaper and better wagyu burger tho

Ricotta and the multigrain bread were fine, the jam had a nice tartness and it's nice, as well as quite rare to see manuka honey used. You can taste it immediately

Sourdough 2++
The least sour sourdough I've had, and that's why I really like it. It's basically like white bread but with great texture. Well toasted too. If you're getting bread, get this for sure.

Butter 1++
Slightly salted, comes in a block and it's not well rested

Kaya 1++
This is really where it's at. Probably the best thing for the entire meal. Gula melaka came through and the texture is insane. It's almost like a cream, ridiculously smooth and velvety. Must try!

Overrated af and overpriced. I didn't think the banana bread was impressive in any way, it's moist and slightly different from normal but not anywhere deserving of 15bucks. The yoghurt cream was no substitute for normal cream and doesn't mesh well with the banana bread either. Underwhelmed after wanting to try this for 5 years

Toasted Banana Bread ($15++)
The first thing that hit me was oof sour. The citrus and house-made yoghurt was really tangy, and although I'm not too sure if I like this flavour addition, it did help to provide some balance with the sweet banana bread and the really sweet sticky date pudding we had before. The banana bread was moist though, and there's macadamia nuts topping for added flavour. Was actually surprised the caramalised banana wasn't sweet at all tho.

Overall Rating: 7/10
