I've always wanted to try out PS cafe and was really excited when I finally get to go there. Located at Harding Road (Dempsey), it is not easily accessible unless you have your own private transport.Anyways, it was mad crowded on a Sunday morning. We got there at 11 plus and it was full house. Had to wait 20 min or so before we got a not-so-nice seat. A 2-seater table against the wall means that for a group of 3, one had to be facing the wall to dine (and that has got to be me).PS cafe exudes a
Anyways, it was mad crowded on a Sunday morning. We got there at 11 plus and it was full house. Had to wait 20 min or so before we got a not-so-nice seat. A 2-seater table against the wall means that for a group of 3, one had to be facing the wall to dine (and that has got to be me).
PS cafe exudes a pretty nice vibe, I believe it would have been much better if it's not so crowded. It'll be a really nice place to sip a cup of coffee.
I ordered the Eggs Benedict while my aunt and sis shared the PS Harding Club. I think the food was pretty normal. Nothing to rave about. The hollandaise sauce on the eggs ben was kinda bland. I was expecting a burst of flavour when I first took a bite, but it seems like the sauce and egg and muffin were all separate bodies. You could taste each of them individually and I thought that was really weird.
I tried the PS Harding Club, which was like a club sandwich, it was pretty normal. I've had better ones at Antoinette and the Lantern.
And of cos, we ordered the very famous Truffle Fries. I've to join the rest and agree that it really came as a MOUNTAIN. The truffle oil smell was pretty strong. It's my first time trying truffle fries and I kinda like it. The serving was so huge, the 3 of us can't even finish half of it. The fries were pretty addictive. Eat it while they are hot!
We ordered drinks and a sticky date pudding to share afterwards, which I ate 3/4 of it. They only took a bite and stopped! But boy, the sticky date pudding was sooo good! It's my first time eating it and I wonder what took me so long to discover such yummy dessert! In my aunt's term, it called the english 'huat kueh'. And she claims that the one at Marmalade Pantry is even better. That gives me a reason to give MP a visit next time!
The sticky date pudding came warm and served with lots of caramel sauce and a scoop of vanilla ice cream. It was the perfect combination! The vanilla ice cream was super good! You could see some black dots in it, and I believe its the vanilla seed used to made it. There was a very strong vanilla taste and it was just splendid!
I was so satisfied with the Sticky Date Pudding, I forgot all about the disappointment the eggs benedict brought. Please be warned that the sticky date pudding is really really sweet and gelat and the portion is big, so it's better to share.
Overall, PS cafe had some hits and misses. But I reckon I won't be back so soon since it's not exactly affordable for me plus there are better options elsewhere.
