Picturenaries #3

Picturenaries : The Third


Truffle Benedict, Pacamara Boutique Coffee Roasters, Singapore, Upper Thomson

Part 2// 
Flipping the menu, this one item caught our attention. I've seen these two words separately countless times in almost every café which serves a brunch menu. The first word - Truffle and the second - Benedict.

Truffle fries or Truffle pasta, it's something that we all know and Eggs Benedict, something that we are familiar with too. But this, it's new, it's something that I've never come across before - Truffle Benedict. Wait what, Truffle Benedict? Surely enough, we ordered a set and waited for its taste to either surprise us or disappoint us.

It arrived. Slowly, I cut the crisp bread while hearing the tingling noise as other diners' forks and knives clashed with one another. The golden-brown toast was perfectly toasted. As the knife dove in to burst that poached egg, the yellowish egg yolk started flowing, showing a contrast with the faded-yellow truffle hollandaise sauce.

It didn't disappoint. The taste of truffle overwhelmed my entire bite due to the truffle hollandaise sauce, even in the presence of the ham. When I felt that I had enough, we moved on to exchanging our food items.

A brunch affair.
