Food for thought @ SAM 8Q

Good food with a good cause.

I like the concept of this establishment as it not only serves yummy food, it also carries out its social responsibility by giving 10% of its profits to charity organizations and causes.

We'd visited their other branch at North Bridge Road before, which serves a wide variety of soups, sandwiches, salads, mains, pastas, pizzas, that can be mixed-and-matched into a combo set. But what really brought us here were three words: All.Day.Breakfast. (till 5.30pm actually, but still.)

We ordered 2 items to share:

House works, $12+
A breakfast set that consisted of scrambled eggs on brioche toast, bacon, hash brown balls, and roasted tomato salad.
Found it alright, not particularly outstanding. The eggs were quite creamy but could do with more flavour.
Also, their brioche had a weird cake-like texture that I couldn't get use to.

Dark Chocolate & Stewed Cherries pancakes, $12+
All pancakes are served with fresh cream & gula melaka syrup, the latter which I I liked it as an interesting alternative to the usual maple syrup. My apologies for the lousy photo quality, it does the duo no justice at all.

What we had were the fluffiest of pancakes, topped with melted dark chocolate chips which made it x1000 yummier. The only flaw to this wonderful combi was the stewed cherries, which were a tad sour and had me cringing at each contact. But imma be back for more coz I spotted other yummy options like Banana & Walnuts, Milk Chocolate Chunks, and Granola!

Don't fancy breakfast items? Not to worry, their menu features other items like pastas, sandwiches, meats & seafood dishes, desserts, etc. - which sound equally mouth-watering too! There's free plain water served here, but diners can support their Give Clean Water fund with a donation of $2.
Also, you'll be pleased to know that there's no service charge here =)

As I've said it before, I will be back!
