Montana Singapore serves pasta, savoury and sweet waffles as well as coffee and beer.
South Bronx located on the ground floor, serves up American comfort classic style burgers.
Right above South Bronx is Fabulous Dough which serves up sweet donuts.

Upon closer inspection of their menu, you will notice interesting items never seen before at other eateries, such as Jalapeno Mac & Cheese Waffle, Assam Crab Waffle, Bulgogi Beef Waffle and more! The menu has enough reasons to explain that Montana seeks to seriously stand out!
It's a 3 in 1 F&B outlet that serves sweet and savoury and 15 over beers. A truly ingenius idea to capture a wide array of taste buds.Here's the cafe facing the escalators. Once you walk in, on your left you will see Fabulous Dough and down the stairs, you will arrive at South Bronx.

One of their first savoury waffles that attracted me to Montana about 10 months ago. This is a waffle-ised jalapeno Mac and Cheese topped with white truffle oil that gives it that sharp truffle aroma. Together with the tomato relish and jalapeno cheese dip, this has brought this dish to the next level.

The presentation of the dish also goes to show that this could serve more as a snack to share rather than just as a main course. I believe their recipe has differed from the last time I tried it as I was able to taste the mac and cheese more distinctly this time. It is no longer dry but rather you can also taste the cheese mixture inside the waffle. The sauce gave it a slight more sourish and salty oomph needed to bring out the flavour in the macaroni and cheese waffle.
2. Assam Crab Waffle $18 *Highly Recommended*

Probably my no.1 favourite waffle at Montana. Inspired by Kedah Laksa, this Assam spiced waffle is served with seasoned crab meat and pineapple cucumber laksa. The waffle itself isn't spicy at all, which one would've expected considering, this dish is inspired by Kedah Laksa. The waffle is slightly fluffier rather than crispy.

Nevertheless, this dish was still able to capture the essence of the laksa aroma and taste. The crab meat tasted freshly and were generously served! The sauce provided with the waffle had a slight mango sweetness and together with the laska flavour, they paired well!

This was a very interesting waffle, with a mix of Gochujang rice waffle with Sous Vide Bulgogi beef which was very tasty. The beef was really good and I pretty much want to order this again just for the beef! Served with an orange sesame coleslaw, sous vide poached egg and spring onions.

The poached egg was perfectly poached to place this dish as an "instagrammable" waffle. The egg also adds some volume to the savoury beef strips. The waffle itself was slightly chewy due to the rice mixed into the batter.

Served with a sunny side up, the truffle taste was subtle, but the mushrooms gave it the right flavour. Not the most spectacular dish on their menu, but if you are a mushroom lover and craving for pasta, this can satisfy your needs! The fettuccine was slightly on the harder side for texture, and though the dish wasn't dry, I can only wish that there was more a mushroom sauce add some more flavour to the fettuccine.

Another interesting dish on the menu was their Vodka Crab Penne. I love penne as it's one of the easiest pasta to eat, just spoon or fork each penne. No need for messy twirling of spaghetti noodles. They used sufficient cheese in the sauce to give each penne a strong cheese aroma.

I couldn't really taste any vodka or cheese, but this dish was to my liking. The serving was a pretty huge portion for 1, and as I dug in, I didn't feel gerlat at all, and could forsee myself polishing this plate clean!

One waffle dish that has been flooding instagram is this black velvet waffle. It is a chocolate coated vanille ice cream scoop. Served on top of a black sesame waffle. You have a choice of big crunch (crispy) or fluffy.

I choose the big crunchy as I like crispy waffles. But sadly, even though the ice cream didn't drench through the waffle, I still felt that the waffle could be crispier.
The Jalapeno mac and cheese waffle was definitely crispier than this waffle.

TA-DA!

Check out the vanilla ice cream beneath the chocolate coat. It's almost like a "Kinder Surprise" vanilla ice cream! The vanilla ice cream was smooth with hints of a creamy aftertaste. The chocolate itself was thick and very hard. Definitely grab a knife to cut into this.

Pumped up with a double shot, this mocha definitely kept me going though the night! You can easily taste the chocolate fused with the coffee in this drink.

A very interesting creation, is their yuzu infused coconut cold brew. The yuzu provided a very sour and fruity taste but together with the cold brew, you get a bitter aftertaste. Definitely a drink to give you a "kick" in the mid-day hot afternoon.

Served in a beaker, you can slowly sip this up with a sweet waffle dessert. I actually enjoyed this cold brew, despite not really being able to taste the coconut.

Montana also has a wide array of imported draft beers. So you can bring the boys out for a chill out session, along with sweet and savoury waffles for the ladies.

Montana has done a great job bringing so many different elements together, food, drinks, ambience and they are very open to feedback, which is probably the reason to their major shifts from their humble beginings.
Overall : 1) Very interesting waffles creations 2) Both savoury and sweet 3) Great chill out spot!
