Club Street Social

Finally a post on Club Street Social, a small bistro located at club street. This place is always packed with expats since the day of its opening and business has been going really well. Not many places sells such delicious paninis in the business district and not forgetting their all day breakfast menu. They also have special cocktails if you're in the mood. Brought my girlfriend to eat here, although I've eaten here a few times and I ordered what I feel are the best 2 dishes in this place.


Lemongrass Iced Tea $7

Comments: A refreshing drink on a hot day


Lobster Bisque $12

Comments: Actually the lobster bisque does not come in this size. As I knew the chefs, they gave me a small cup as a sample. The lobster bisque is full of flavor. But do remember to mix it up before drinking it because the oil (should be truffle oil) makes it slightly salty. It's nice that there are a few pieces of lobster in it too.


Scrambled Eggs, Fontina and Chives $12 Portobello Mushroom $4

Comments: Many food blogs have claimed this dish to be the best scrambled eggs in Singapore and I'm jumping on the bandwagon to exclaim this too. THIS GOT TO BE THE BEST SCRAMBLED EGGS IN SINGAPORE! Just eating it with the bread is just comfort food, whether you're eating it in the morning, afternoon or night. That's why they offer it in the all day breakfast. I even added a portobello mushroom to go with it as I love mushrooms.



Grilled Ribeye, Caramelized Garlic, Fontina $28

Comments: No one would expect a "sandwich" to taste this fabulous. The big piece of tender ribeye in between 2 toasted pieces of bread, every bite of it taste like heaven. For someone who loves steak, this is a real delight. Not forgetting the melted cheese, which makes it a perfect combination. The best way to eat this would be to eat it like a hamburger.


Nutella Bread Pudding with Ice Cream $12

Comments: To be honest, I'm not a fan of desserts neither am I a fan of chocolate nor is my girlfriend. But this Bread Pudding is super delicious. The bread is served warm, coupled with the vanilla ice cream and the chocolate sauce. Absolutely delicious which makes it a reason to make space for dessert.

Overall review: A few downsides of this place: it is quite small, which makes it difficult to find a seat if it's on a busy day, you might have to take a seat at the cocktail bar or stand around at their tall tables. They do not take phone reservations too. The food is also quite expensive for a normal day lunch. But this is a place that serves GREAT food. More westernized as they serve bread as their main staple food, what most expats love. 



Details of the place: 5 Gemmill Lane, s(069261)
