Oink Don $29.00++ *Highly Recommended*

We highly recommend the Oink Don, if you're very hungry, craving for quality pork and love carbs! Starting from the top, take your pick on Deep Fried Pork Cutlet w/bone, Grilled Pork Chop, Roasted Pork Belly and Pull Pork Carnita. There's so much meat here, I think an entire piglet died for this main course! In all seriousness, the meat were very flavourful, juicy, not one molecule of the variety of meats here was dry. Add on the black pepper cream sauce and every item has a tinge of smooth and delicate peppery flavor.

Check out the thick layer of pulled pork carnita covering the fluffy egg and Sambal Fried Rice w/ Black Pepper Cream and Bacon! The pulled pork is the most tender, most juicy pulled pork ever, definitely took alot of time to slow cook this to perfection! Yea Baby!

Sea Don $35.00++ *Highly Recommended*
This Sea Don comes with a spectacular sight of a Whole Lobster, King Salmon, Squid set above another "treasure", the Seafood Fried Rice w/ Garlic Butter Sauce, Prawns, Scallops, Octopus, Egg. I'll be very honest with you, the seafood fried rice is the best fried rice I have ever tasted. The rice itself has a distinct "wok-hei", and the rice absorbed all the sweetness from the variety of seafood cooked altogether. The crunchy prawns embedded in the rice also provide a nice bite in between the soft and pillowy rice.

Enough about the rice? I could go on for days about the yummy seafood rice, but! The highlight of this dish, the Whole Lobster, showcases the high quality grade ingredients used at the Benjamins. The lobster has a sweet juice crunch and it's easily removed from the shell, a good sign of the meat being fresh. The salmon fillet is huge, it's actually longer than the bowl itself!

Molten Lava Cheese Burger $25.00++

Probably the next new hyper on social media is this Molten Lava Cheese Burger, served with a Choice of Fried Chicken Cutlet, Soft Shell Crabs, Beef. The soft shell crab here is also huge, I'm starting to realize that everything served here at The Benjamins is on the generous side! The cheese comes oozing on and it's great as a dipping sauce for the potato tater tots.

Pizza Burger $28.00++ *Highly Recommended*

Brand new on the menu is the Pizza Burger. The Benjamins takes pride in making their ingredients in-house, such as this Beef Patty, Pepperoni, served with a fusion of Black Olives, Grilled Artichoke, Spinach, Monterey Jack, Mild Cheddar. The minced beef patty has a good mix of meat, breadcrumbs, fats and seasoning making it extremely delicious and addictive. This meat patty looks to be approx 250grams.

Overall : The Benjamin's continue to amaze our tastebuds and eyes with their innovative creations. Definitely try out the Sea Don, Oink Don and their smoothies, I'm quite confident you cannot find anything quite like these items in any other eatery in Singapore.

The Benjamins, previously known as Benjamin Browns, is recognized for their massive, exaggerated milkshakes. The bistro, located at Forum Shopping Mall is pleasantly decorated in an industrial-retro fashion.
Let’s start with what The Benjamin is famous for: towering, insta-worthy OTT (over the top) milkshakes adorned with a plethora of toppings. Presented in mason jar, each rendition is fatally attractive and appears diabetes-inducing. But hey, YOLO!
My vote goes to Coffee Avocado ($16), which has a lusciously creamy texture, without being overwhelming. Other milkshakes with chocolate notes are Nutella Banana ($16) and Cookies & Cream ($16). The former is lovely, but I find the latter forgettable.
If you’re not a fan of chocolate, there’s Strawberry Cheesecake ($16). Presentation wise, this is gorgeous, but taste-wise, I find its ok. Nothing extraordinary.
Other OTT milkshake options include Old School Vanilla, Tim Tams, Peanut Butter & Jelly, Milo Dinosaur and Caramel Crunch, which all goes for $16. I recommend sharing a milkshake between 2 persons, as the portions are generous and textures are rich.
Apart from decadent beverages, The Benjamins also serve decent grub.
For something substantial, go for the Sizzling Beef Chucks ($25), where well-marinated, juicy pieces of comfort sputtering furiously on a hot plate. It may look somewhat raw in this picture, but after a couple of minutes, the heat from the hot plate cooks the meat to a beautiful shade of pale pink.
Another main course that captured our hearts was the well-executed Pork Chop with Mash Potatoes ($25). Mouth-watering sauce clocks the grilled swine, which was tender and juicy, and possessed a slight smoky aroma. The sweet potato mash was a suitable accompaniment that balanced out the saltiness of this dish.
The Seafood Aglio Olio ($23) took me by surprise with its heat. It was spicy for sure, but not ridiculously spicy such that it numbs the tongue. I did not take a liking to the sour notes which made the pasta taste weird. For 23 bucks, the portion is unfortunately small, and the number of prawns and scallops (3 each) was sadly meagre.
Hits and misses at rather high prices, me thinks. While The Benjamins is not the best there is, it’s a pretty safe option if you happen to be in the area.

Have been wanting to try the pretty looking OTT milkshakes from Benjamin Browns since it's sudden surge in popularity on social media. As we're not prepared to brave the long queues, we waited for the initial hype to fizzle out before making a trip down.

The smallish restaurant is tucked away at a corner of the Forum Shopping mall.

It was not very crowded when we arrived at about 7pm, but it did get busy from 7.30pm onwards. Do try to make reservations if you have a big group as there are limited seating available inside.

Complimentary ice water was served to every table, check out the tiny red star on the glass. We quickly browse the menu and ordered two of their popular OTT milkshakes to share, and also main courses for each of us.

We thought the shakes would take a while to construct but they came rather fast, even before our appetizer was served. Presenting...Nutella Banana shake and Old School Vanilla shake, $16++ each, standing tall with overflowing amount of assorted confectioneries as toppings.

These photogenic shakes took us quite some time to finally complete photo taking. Fortunately, the toppings stayed put till the very end phew! Both of these OTT milkshakes tasted fine for me, sweet but pleasantly flavorful. I like picking the toppings out to munch on. Great dish for the desserts lovers.

Main courses and appetizer were served while we're busy de-constructing the OTT shakes. We had Pork chops with mash potatoes $25++ and Sizzling beef chunks $25++, and a Truffle fries $15++ for sharing.

My Pork chop was delish, meat was tender and well marinated, the sweet potato mash was sweet and creamy too. The Beef chunks were a hit with my friend who loved her beef to be juicy and slightly undercooked. I didn't touch the Truffle fries as it was covered with shredded parmesan cheese, but my friends thought it was pretty decent.

Although the fanciful milkshakes are a little overpriced, Benjamin Browns is actually a good place to enjoy affordable and decent food. We redeemed 1 for 1 vouchers from The Entertainer App for the mains, and paid below $40 per head for a rather satisfying meal.

The Benjamins, formerly known as Benjamin Browns, is a cafe in Forum the Shopping Mall. A few months ago they shot to fame with their Over-The-Top (OTT) milkshakes, which are milkshakes with many ingredients and snacks piled on top such that it's nearly overflowing.

Nutella Banana Milkshake

Nutella Banana Milkshake($16++): One of their bestsellers, this milkshake has Khong Guan-like biscuits layered with banana slices, cream, Tim Tam inside, a wedge of chocolate cake, and Nutella smeared on the rim to hold the pretzels there. The milkshake was rich, decadent and definitely a chocolate lover's dream. However, as you can see from the picture, it was hard to drink and start eating the ingredients!

Strawberry Cheesecake Milkshake

Strawberry Cheesecake Milkshake ($16++): This milkshake was also milky and creamy, but I couldn't taste any sort of cheesecake flavour in the drink. So I guess the 'cheesecake' comes from the wedge of cheesecake on top, together with the Khong Guan biscuits, cream, strawberry, Tim Tams and wafer sticks.

Crabmeat Arriabiata Linguine

Crabmeat Arriabiata Linguine ($23++): Unfortunately this dish failed to impress. There was little crabmeat, and because of that, it made the dish seem like an ordinary plate of Spaghetti Bolognese...

Fish and Chips ($23++): It was such a small and skinny serving of fish. And it came with a scant portion of salad, some fries, and sour cream. I didn't manage to try this from my friend, but even if it was really delicious, I'd rather order something else that's more worth my penny.

300g Sizzling Beef Chunks

300g Sizzling Beef Chunks ($25++): It comes with roasted baby potatoes and melted cheese on tomato. The beef chunks were really juicy and flavourful! They were chewy yet had a nice bite too. Very tasty, and this is what I call value for money.

The Benjamins Burger

The Benjamin burger with bacon, eggs, cheese and mushroom ($25++): The beef patty was shaped in a ball, not the flat kind that's about the same circumference as the burger bun. As a whole it was quite tasty, the beef well cooked. But it wasn't very outstanding either.

Overall, for the milkshakes, I think they taste ordinary. It's definitely the presentation that creates the wow factor. And actually, $16++ for a cup of this is very expensive! Food wise it was disappointing. For the prices that you pay, you'd expect a certain quality and portion of the food, but it certainly fell short.

題外話/補充資料： Used the Entertainer App so it was less costly. Food needs to be improved while milkshakes can be tried once.

Met up with some friends for dinner at Benjamin Browns for dinner one weekday evening after seeing how over the top shakes seem to be the rage nowadays.

Benjamin Browns, or BB for short, sits on the first floor of the relatively quiet Forum The Shopping Mall and by virtue of an earlier reservation, we managed to snag a corner table. Seating is rather limited (probably ~ 20-30 pax) and there was a queue to get in after we were done with dinner.

Carbonara - This wasn't my first choice but since they were apparently out of their "Benjamin Burger", I had to make do with this. And it wasn't a great choice; less than al dente pasta coupled with creamy but a tad watery base. Only consolation was the generous serving of bacon slices. Nothing like La Strada's (http://www.timelessfacade.com/2015/09/la-strada-excellent-carbonara.html).

Nutella Banana Milkshake - And the primary reason behind our choice to dine at BB, their over the top milkshakes. Honestly it was no great shakes (pun intended) and definitely didn't look as pretty in real life as in those instagram photos (presentation came across as a little slip shod). It was essentially diluted banana milkshake topped with layer upon layer (3 to be exact) of sliced bananas, whipped cream and sugar crackers (which looked and tasted suspiciously like they were from Khong Guan), finished off with a brownie as the crowning glory and a chocolate wafer wedged by the side. Pretzels adorned the side of the glass, held together by a layer of gooey nutella. Overall this was a giant sugar rush and too much of it made me a little sick. Lesson learnt - share it, hence the 2 straws provided. Definitely not worth the $16++ though.

My share came up to about $42 which wasn't quite worth the money in my humble opinion. Food was average at best and even the much vaunted shake fell flat. Service was also found wanting. One of the wait staff was obviously unsure about the menu and had to repeatedly come back to us about the food we ordered. Conclusion? Yet another run of the mill place hyped up and glorified by social media.

The Benjamin Browns Bistro & Bakery / The Benjamins has been around for a few years now, having opened in Forum The Shopping Mall since 2013. But they've flown relatively under the rader, with mostly sub-par food... up until 2015, when they reinvented themselves. These days, they're known for their 'Over-The-Top' milkshakes, an eye-catching, towering dessert, of heart-stopping and photo-worthy proportions. Overall though, I think I'll visit for photo opportunities, or for being 'trendy', and not return again.

Ambience at Benjamin Browns Bistro & Bakery / The Benjamins is casual European, akin to small Italian bistros. Warm, decorative lighting hang over the small, cramped, floor space. Sturdy wooden and metal furniture, packed closely within the area, result in less privacy for conversations, and the ambient noise level can be quite loud when the place is packed. Queues can stretch up to 15 minutes or more during peak periods. Still, I find a sense of calmness in the midst of chaos, I especially like people-watching from the corner seats here... it's relaxing.

Service at Benjamin Browns Bistro & Bakery / The Benjamins can be brusque. The mostly young staff are usually busy, rushing around the small space. Still, they're friendly enough in greetings, though they might show signs of impatience if you take too long to order. At least they have basic product knowledge, which is good, and can provide brief descriptions of menu items. Order fulfillment usually takes about 10 minutes, decent. However, I'm disappointed in the construction consistency of their 'Over-The-Top' milkshakes, peak periods means a rushed job, which results in a milkshake that isn't built well. One of our milkshake orders actually fell over on its own within 3 minutes of being served. Terrible.

Food at Benjamin Browns Bistro & Bakery / The Benjamins is casual Italian. Taste is mostly decent, as is their portion size, which is slightly large for 1 person. But most people visit Benjamin Browns Bistro & Bakery / The Benjamins for their 'Over-The-Top' milkshakes. In my opinion, these dessert towers look incredibly beautiful and photo-worthy, but the taste isn't as outstanding, being average at best. Pretty to look at, but no real substance. Prices are reasonable for a cafe, budget about SGD $9 per person for a shared milkshake dessert.

Benjamin Browns Cafe, according to a friend, has been around for years. Their food philosophy consists of serving only premium ingredients, such as grass-fed cows and stress-free chickens without antibiotics and hormones; and their bread is baked fresh daily. The recent and very constant photo-posts of their famous milkshakes on my friends' social media feeds have piqued my interest. So I decided to gather some foodie friends to try these gigantic shakes out.

The Nutella Banana Milkshake (SGD$16.00). The milkshake itself was of a light chocolate flavour infused with banana's aroma - luscious, but not too thick nor creamy; and smooth enough. The giant mug of milkshake was decorated interestingly with a thick coating of nutella chocolate on the rim of the mug, with tiny salted pretzels stuck to them. There were also chocolate wafer biscuits, a thick mound of cream, chocolate love letters and a small piece of cheesecake. These made the milkshake a dessert item on its own, with all the elements of sweetness, saltiness, creaminess and crunch. It was rather delicious.

The Old School Milkshake (SGD$16.00), made up of old-fashioned vanilla milkshake - a little too milky in flavour for some of us. It was decorated prettily with all the favorites from our childhood days - ice-cream cone topped with blue candy floss, pink disc-shaped cookie, mound of cream, a small piece of chocolate cake and the mini candied cookies. The chocolate cake was delightfully decadent; and there was a thick coating of chocolate sauce around the rim of the mug, plastered with tiny rainbow bubbles that exploded in the mouth.

Located in Forum is Benjamin Browns.

It's quite a small little hipster cafe that is becoming famous for their milkshakes. I've heard of snaking queues on weekends and weekday dinners for their milkshakes.

I decided to skip the peak hours and visit on a weekday lunch to see what the hype was all about!

They have quite a wide variety of main course ranging from escargots to steak, to fish tacos.

They also have dessert offerings like waffles and cakes.

Their cakes stood real tall and looked so good I had to try one!

And of course, here's their over the top milkshake menu! I highly recommend sharing each milkshake between at least 2 pax.

1. Sea salt caramel chocolate cake $8.90++

Sea salt caramel chocolate cake

Right our order was taken they served us our cake. I was expecting them to ask if the cake should be served later after the mains. But I started to realize it's because the kitchen is overwhelmed with meticulously making the milkshakes that they can't cope. After we were done with the cake we waited another 20 minutes before we got our milkshake and 5 seconds after we got our milkshake our main came. So our cotton candy was melting along with the milkshake.

Sea salt caramel chocolate cake

Nonethless, this cake is very good. It is to be shared amongst 2 and the layers of icing can be too sweet if eaten alone without the cake. The cake itself is quite dense, almost like a brownie and I felt it was tremendously well baked cake.

2. Old school vanilla milkshake $16++

Old school vanilla milkshake

When our milkshake came, it was overwhelming. Looking at this tall, "thrown together", random old school snakes that you could probably get from a mama shop with less than a $1 and with cotton candy. When I asked the staff what colour is the cotton candy today, she replied, it depends on which bag they open. So I'm guessing the cotton candy isn't made on the spot. Check out the marshmallows, gem biscuits, love letter, kueh piring (the green big round flaky biscuit which was durian flavoured) and the cotton candy!

Old school vanilla milkshake

I definitely see why the kitchen was so held up, imagine having to "paint" the sides of this cup with nutella and sprinkle all these colourful rainbow dots and making sure they stick to the sides of the cup!!

Old school vanilla milkshake

After we spent maybe 10 minutes deconstructing our milkshake, we finally got to drink and it tasted like any other vanilla milkshake I have ever drank. So yes, this is highly instagrammable and highly hyped about. But this is also one I would say it's pretty and though it doesn't tasted bad $16++ is a heavy price for prettiness.

3. Sizzling Beef Chunks $25++

A chef's recommendation was the sizzling beef chunks 250gm of awesome juicy meat is what it advertised on a sizzling pan. Sadly though, yes the beef was juicy but it was so tough!

Sizzling Beef Chunks

Yes it smelt good, but I think the zucchini tasted better than the beef. It was a disappointment.

During our entire meal it was difficult to try and get the attention of the staff to refill our glasses of water, you are paying 10% for service charge, but I'm sure if there was a jar of iced water within sight, I would've got up and gotten my fill!

The milkshakes, yes they are pretty. Would I go again? No.
The cakes, yes they are so good! Would I go again? YES! DEFINITELY
The steak, NO.. just NO!

題外話/補充資料： Charges 10% service charge and 7% gst

Benjamin Browns is a rather small cafe with limited seatings so I will not advise you to come in large groups.As I was near Forum, I dropped by to try their pasta (I loveee pasta!) while my dining partner had the beef burger.Their seafood aglio olio was done al dente. It was quite oily though and as I finished the pasta, I could see a small pool of oil at the bottom. The squid was quite tough and chewy and the shrimps tasted like the frozen ones.

Benjamin Browns is a rather small cafe with limited seatings so I will not advise you to come in large groups.

As I was near Forum, I dropped by to try their pasta (I loveee pasta!) while my dining partner had the beef burger.

Their seafood aglio olio was done al dente. It was quite oily though and as I finished the pasta, I could see a small pool of oil at the bottom. The squid was quite tough and chewy and the shrimps tasted like the frozen ones. There were some baby scallops which were chewy and had a slight sweetness to it. I could taste the garlic fragrance in the aglio olio which I adored.

Beef burger: My partner requested the beef patty to be done medium but it was done closer to medium well instead. That aside, the sauce and mushroom went well with the burger, and the patty itself was moist as well. The fries also tasted yummy and the salad had the right amount of vinaigrette dressing.

I chanced upon Benjamin Browns Bistro & Bakery when I was browsing for 1-for-1 deals in my Entertainer app. I was kinda in the mood for pasta despite already having a lot of it for the previous night's dinner. Do you know what your food cravings mean? If you can't get enough of pasta like me, it means that it's likely you have high insulin level or low blood sugar level due to diets/lack of food. I blame it on the terrible canteen situation in school. Anyway, Benjamin Browns Bistro & Bakery is s

I chanced upon Benjamin Browns Bistro & Bakery when I was browsing for 1-for-1 deals in my Entertainer app. I was kinda in the mood for pasta despite already having a lot of it for the previous night's dinner. Do you know what your food cravings mean? If you can't get enough of pasta like me, it means that it's likely you have high insulin level or low blood sugar level due to diets/lack of food. I blame it on the terrible canteen situation in school. Anyway, Benjamin Browns Bistro & Bakery is situated in Forum Shopping Mall, a quieter but more sophisticated mall in Orchard.

I looked forward to trying out their dishes because I read and heard a lot of raving reviews after I briefly Googled it.

Their menu selections are also pleasing and easy to choose from. If you're using the Entertainer, you can purchase two main courses for the price of one (the more expensive one). I selected the Crab Meat Linguine ($22) and my friend chose the Fish & Chips ($23).

The crab meat linguine was exquisite, soaked in a tomato-based vodka arrabiata sauce. The vodka element is very faint, almost imaginary, but it's okay because the crab meat was in silky generous strands that can bowl anyone over instantly. The arrabiata component is slightly spicy and definitely manageable. If you want greater spicy kicks, you can go ahead and eat the chilli but I steered clear of them. The fish & chips was wonderfully done, with a light crispy batter with smooth tender fish meat within. I liked how there was more substance than crispy batter, it made me feel like it's more value-for-money. It was a really delicious meal and what makes me happier is that I actually don't have to pay the full price and yet enjoy better-than-average restaurant selections.

Chilli Crab Linguine ($20)

As the local twist is gradually catching up, this chilli crab rendition finally managed to please us, with the right balance of spiciness yet ending on a sweet note with each mouthful. We loved how the crab meat was fresh and shredded to spread it generously throughout the dish, having enough to taste the chunks in each mouthful. Though the linguine was just slightly short of al dente, the overall combination was still good enough for me to overlook that and make me ‘gian’ for more.

Eggs Benedict ($17)

Quite a disappointment for us, this was one that didn’t manage to please except for the generous portion of bacon. Mine was slightly overcooked with clumps of yolk inside, and the hollandaise sauce was too mild. It didn’t quite go well with the sweet bread combination too, and it got too soggy after a while.

BB Fries ($8)

This was a super addictive one, with perfectly fried fries so it remains soft on the inside wrapped with a crispy shell. Plus point, we loved how this still had the skin on, and it wasn’t just those factory manufactured fries you get in fast food chains. Served with Hollandaise sauce and Truffle Mayo, we loved the subtle truffle taste and how it wasn’t jelat at all. The hollandaise on the other hand, disappointed with just a creamy texture and a very mild taste in it.

Red Velvet Cake ($7.50)

I was captivated by the sharp red tinge of this, nicely contrasted with the white cream cheese, and just had to give in to temptation. Dense and just moist enough, it had a rich cocoa taste that wasn’t too sweet and blended well with the generous amount of cream cheese. Certainly not for the health-conscious looking at the amount of fattening cream cheese! One of the better pieces I’ve tried so far, I’ll most likely be back for this again!

Though I was disappointed by the serving of eggs ben I’ve had, I was most certainly impressed by their service standards! As my orders that were placed separately from my diners were forgotten and we’d waited for approximately 15 minutes before asking them to check on it, then realising that it was forgotten by the kitchen, the person-in-charge came out to apologise immediately and explained to us. On top of that, after I’d ordered my red velvet cake, they’d taken the initiative to inform me that it would be on the house due to them forgetting my orders earlier. A pleasant surprise and kudos to the crew that day!

I would be back soon, not for the eggs ben but probably some other items on their lunch/dinner menu, especially when the chilli crab linguine was such a good rendition, and of course more desserts like the peanut butter cake that looked equally tempting!

Red Velvet Cake ($6) – I know how difficult it is to find good red velvet cakes and I’ve tasted one of the worst ones around, hence I’m glad to say this one at Benjamin Browns, which is also their signature cake, has passed the test. The texture and consistency of the cake was good and I liked how the red colouring wasn’t overdone. The second component to the cake is the cream cheese frosting, which was really yummy too – strong enough to go with the cake but not too sweet!

When I was shopping at Forum, walk pass this chic cafe selling bakery items. The aroma attracted me to buy some biscuits to try. Almond biscuits. First look like a ginger bread. However when you bite it, it was not as hard as other biscuits. The taste was quite nutty, with many almonds and other nuts. This biscuit looked like old school Khong Guan sweet biscuits. When you bite it, you thought it was so sweet, but it was just a hint of sweetness with fluffy and crispy feel.
