whooooooo, i had a DAAAAAMN delicious lunch today man.
it was outside my house, off sunset way, some European cafe called Peaberry and Pretzel. remember this name dudes, 'cos the food ROCKS.

let me share my awesome lunch experience with you.

First, steaming hot goulash soup with freshly baked walnut bread. nice, no? ok actually this dish wasn't that good, lol. the goulash probably didn't even contain paprika, and was a bit too watery and flat.

Second, veal and mushroom pan with creme fraiche and rosti. this time, the dish was near perfect! the sauce coupled with creme fraiche was daaaamn creamy and tasty! the veal was tender and the mushrooms tasted like they were freshly plucked from the back garden, maybe there was a garden in their kitchen!

PENULTIMATELY (yeah i learnt that word in chem lecture!), munich sandwich which contains grilled chicken, parmesan, rocket in a special sauce, tomatoes, onions and egg all in foccacia bread. the fried egg was ULTRA nice, never tasted eggs like that before, i swear! and the chicken was suuuuuper tender too. only problem was the special sauce was a bit too herby and funky smelling, like smelly socks.

Last, but most definitely NOT least, valrhona chocolate pudding with rum. wahhhhhhh. i don't know where to start. the pudding was like crispy on the outside, soft and gooey and oozing chocolate inside. served with vanilla ice cream, and not those cheapo white-colour kind, but it was yellowish and flecked with ground vanilla pods and really REAL-tasting. and it came with vanilla rum, strawberry, blueberries, gooseberry, a piece of chocolate, toasted almonds and some biscuit thingy.

whoooooooo. i'm speechless, ok actually not la, i just rambled off an entire post. the only gripe is that the food wasn't exactly worth the price, plus the cafe is like damn puny, only had 5 tables or so. and the waiter was super blur.

so gluttons!! get your expandable-waistline pants ready! we shall go attack the foodie haven at clementi street after As ok?! set ah?!
