Why not have a great breakfast before school?

KAP Spinelli - French Croissant with Egg

This time round, Jia Le and I decided to explore the Spinelli Coffee Company which is right across our school, since we always wanted to try something new. And we found this cafe just right beside MacDonald at level 2 of the eateries available. This week, I tried their breakfast menu, French Croissant and Scrambled Egg with a cup of freshly brewed Mocha (Espresso, guittard cocoa & steamed milk).

From what I drank, the coffee gave a rich and strong bitter flavour of the coffee mixed with cocoa, unlike mocha from elsewhere which is sweet and chocolatey. But, I prefer sweet ones.

I would say that the golden-brown toasted croissant I had were really crispy and nice which goes well with my favourite scrambled egg. And the egg taste light and fluffy when I put it into my mouth. Moreover, the portion given was just right with a small side salad.

However, the ordering system there is very similar to Starbucks where it's self-service. If you been there before, they have delicious desserts displayed over at the counter too and you get to enjoy your food with music and comfortable sofa there.

Beef Lasagne

King Albert Park- Spinelli Coffee Company.

Janson and I went to King Albert Park (KAP) today and on a impulse entered Spinelli Coffee Company (Right beside Mcdonalds) . The first thing that hits us was the fragrant smell of freshly grounded coffee and a table with 6-8 different kinds of cakes. And we are not talking about your average blackforest or cheese cakes, we are talking about freshly baked (and still hot!) apple crumble and lemon cake. We had to resist because we came in to try the beef lasagne and Egg and toast. 

Although it took rather long for the food to come, I didn't realized it took a long time at all. Maybe it was the company or more likely the atmosphere. It was so calming and relaxed (I'm making it my new favorite study place) and that's why i didn't realize it took so long although it took more than 45mins to come. The beef lasagne was delicious! The beef sauce, cheese and pasta came together in harmony, it was really good although it was quite expensive, at a price of $9.80 (Frown)! I have to admit, I'm not a salad person, unlike Janson, so i didn't really enjoy the salad. 

Overall I will give this dish a 4.5 out of 5 stars. This with a cup of vanilla latte and I'm in heaven. I will definitely come back for more!
