Toast

Finding this place can be quite a challenge. Nestled in a deep corner away from the vibe of Ngee Ann City was Toast- a quaint cafe under The Marmalade Group. The setting here is simple, comfortable and heartening to have a cuppa or afternoon tea.



I arrived at 6pm, only to realise only sandwiches were left due to their 7pm closing time- thats very early! My order took probably 15 minutes to arrive- but it was worth the wait. The quality toasting here makes all their breads and wraps a delight to bite into.


Masala Chicken Wrap ($7.90)

Just look at those brown charred areas of the tortilla sheet-those are signs of effortful grilling. The result was a nice crisp surface with the inner layer still remaining moist. Futhermore, the wrap came filled with generous pieces of chicken thigh cuts, fresh mango slices, sauteed romaine lettuce and real mint leaves.


I find the chicken just acceptable; sufficiently tender, slightly lined with fats but had no hint of indian spice. Caesar dressing, mango and mint leaves were right additions to complement the bland meat.


The overall atmosphere here is quiet and gave a sense of privacy. Most suitable for tai-tais who need a break after some long hours of shopping.
