... go for breakfast at Canele Patisserie?

I met up with some school friends over breakfast at Canele Patisserie today.

Canele, to me, has always been a dessert place – somewhere comfortable where one can hang out with friends and chit chat over a cuppa of hot tea or coffee and of course, yummy desserts…

As for breakfast…It started as a big question mark to me and ended up as a pleasant surprise.

The breakfast menu consists of six different sets, ranging from $7.50 to $13.50. One could choose to have eggs prepared in various ways (poached, scrambled, omelette). If one has a sweet tooth, one could also choose a bakery set (of muffin, croissant, and Danish), blue berry pancake or French Toast. For those who want the best of both worlds, Le Petit Dejeuner, which has eggs, toast, muffin, sausage, bacon, amongst others, would be the choice.

While I would agree that the menu choices were somewhat limited, the presentation of the various breakfast sets was rather pretty to behold. Needless to say, I was impressed with the way the food was arranged and couldn’t help but marvel at how simple breakfast foodfare can be presented in such a delightful way.

I guess it also helped that there wasn’t much of a breakfast crowd and this made Canele an ideal choice for people to meet up and enjoy a quiet morning.

So yes, next time when you would like to go to somewhere quiet for breakfast, why not give it a shot?
