I have always wanted to visit Cafe Melba after seeing photos of truffle fries posted by some of my friends on Facebook. I’m not on a quest to hunt down the BEST truffle fries in Singapore but it’s actually quite fun comparing and agreeing on which are the places that serve really really good ones! 🙂

As our birthdays are one week apart, it was good enough reason (sorry cuz we are very busy ppl) for Pei Rong and I to celebrate and catch up over dinner with our husbands on a lovely Saturday evening. For some reason, I didnt have any of my cameras with me and had to rely on my iPhone 5 that day. #bopian

Thankful that PR and her husband gave us a lift (we came from the west) because Cafe Melba is located at such an ulufied place! I have never even heard of Goodman Arts Centre. Sheesh! Take public transport at your own risk 😛

However, Cafe Melba has a very nice ambience. Rustic, yet romantic. I like. But Pei Rong and I agreed that Cafe Melba reminds us of PS Cafe. Does anyone know if they are under the same group?

Even the menu is so PS Cafe-ish.

The Truffle fries ($13) were quite good, but not the best that I have had so far. I don’t think I would travel all the way to Cafe Melba just for this.

There is all day breakfast here! Good for those who like eating breakfast food anytime of the day. Haha.

Pei Rong and misterchewy had the Full Melba cooked breakfast ($25). Eggs can be done in various ways – poached, sunny side up or scrambled. Only free range, organic eggs are selected. I only tried a bit of pork sausage and mushrooms. Sausage was quite salty but the mushrooms were good.

Forgot that we had truffle fries to share, if not I wouldn’t have ordered the Haddock and chips ($24). The fish was coated with light batter and was crispy. Nothing to shout about though.

Every pizza at Cafe Melba is made to order a la minute and is available from 12pm onwards everyday. There are 10 types to choose from and we had the 12 inch smoked chicken pizza with additional shiitake mushrooms ($25). I only had a slice because I personally found it strangely sweet. Not really to my liking.

The food that we had was satisfactory but I really like the ambience. Perhaps we would have better luck with the other dishes next time!
