The Providore (Downtown Gallery)

Very very meh

Yuzu tart was nice but very small and pricy. Iced chocolate was also nice, not too sweet as I think they used dark chocolate

$21 for this dish. Thought it was quite pricey, but I really enjoyed the smoked salmon. The rosti underneath is thick and not super crispy.

One of the best places to get your sandwich cravings satisfied without having to queue/wait too long at those over-hyped sandwich shops.

Buns are buttered and toasted with that gooey egg perfection.

Hands down to the best croissant in sg!! Their croissant is perfect; so fluffy and buttery. And only for $3.80????! Their butter complements well with the croissant as well. It wasn’t too melted nor too hard (unlike some cafes that serve butter that doesnt melt no matter how hard you try). Their cappuccino ($5) was super super good as well. Very fragrant & not too diluted. Definitely my favourite place for a simple breakfast!

This came with a very generous serving of beef cheek ragout, which was tender and flavourful! The pappardelle pasta itself was decent, was done al dente but was a wee bit harder than I like. The kale, mushroom and shaved parmesan were tasty and nicely rounded up the dish. This was a satisfying lunch option! Just that it’s a bit pricey and you can get fresh handmade pastas at the same price point.

Get this over the lobster mac and cheese (they use penne if I remember correctly), which my friend said was quite meh.
