Situated at the second level of the shophouse, the view from outside Arbite was pretty as it outlooks to the bus stop and surrounding structures that makes up the quaint Serangoon Gardens landscape. The decor is simple but comfortable, and while there are ample seating available, it is recommended for one to do a reservation before visiting the place.I have decided to go for the brunch items because that was what I had came here for, thus the Eggs Benedict ($13.90) fit in into the bill perfectly
I have decided to go for the brunch items because that was what I had came here for, thus the Eggs Benedict ($13.90) fit in into the bill perfectly. Flowy eggs topped on a bread with Hollandaise sauce spread on in between the Toasted Brioche, it was pretty decent for the first meal of the day. The Parma ham adds a bit of meatiness to the healthy mix of greens, and offered a savoury taste that went pretty well with the flowy eggs. Overall the Eggs Benedict was pretty good, as the flavours of each item ran pretty well with each other even when it comes to the dressing of the salad. I only wished that the Brioche was more crusty and it seemed pretty soft at the start and became a bit airy after being left for a while.
The Smoked Salmon Croissant ($14.90) had scrambled eggs and smoked salmon placed on the top of an open face Croissant. The Croissant was buttery and flaky but bot particularly crispy on the exterior. The Scrambled Eggs were runny just like how I preferred mine to be done, yet fully cooked through and flavoursome. Smoked Salmon was pretty fresh and gave a smoky taste to the whole dish, and the whole dish just seems pretty well balanced in taste as well.
We also ordered Truffle Fries ($12.90) to share. The fries are rather large, probably for the convenience to spread the mayo over. The fragrance of truffles were evident and aromatic, making every single fry irresistible in flavour and making us yearn for more. Usually the side dishes get forgotten after the mains have arrived, but we were just headed for the fries from time and again throughout the meal just so we can have a taste of it because we were just tempted by it.For more photos and the full review, please visit: http://jiaksimipng.wordpress.com/2013/10/18/arbite-serangoon-gardens-way/
