Birthday Dinner at Cafe Fahrenheit

On Saturday 1 March, Juliane's Kai Ye, Anthony brought us to this new cafe, Cafe Fahrenheit to celebrate Juliane's 4th birthday.

Cafe Fahrenheit is newly opened, just before the Chinese New Year. It is situated within the residential enclave at Eng Kong Terrace, near Toh Tuck Road, off Jalan Jurong Kechil (Upper Bukit Timah). This delightful cafe specialises in contemporary Italian and French cuisine.

Anthony had the chef to specially prepare a private dinner menu for us. Wah, so nice! :)

For the first course, we had the Signature French Onion Soup ($5). In a rich, nut brown broth, the onions were mellow and nicely caramelised. Unlike some other onion soups that I have had, this onion soup was sweet, rich in flavour but not oily at all. There was also a piece of toasted french bread with cheese melted over it placed on the soup. It's a mini meal on its own, lol. I enjoyed the soup and so did Juliane who finished the entire bowl of soup. :)



While we were enjoying our soup, we were given a Honey Roasted Duck Breast with French Bean Salad ($10) on the house. :D The salad was dressed with dark vinegar and balsamic vinegar. There was a generous sprinkling of walnuts and sun-dried tomatoes in the salad. The salad was really nice with the right blend of sour, sweet and savoury.


For the second course, we had Pan-fried Scallop & Crab Roulette with Homemade Basil & Pesto Fettucini cooked in clarified Sage-butter. The fettucini was al dente and its taste was refreshing. The pan-fried scallop & crab roulette was a delight, with the flavour of the sea. The lemon zest made the dish even more aromatic and added a kick to it. We all enjoyed this dish very much. Again, Juliane finished the whole dish!


For the third course, we had dessert. :)
The girls had Valrhona Chocolate Teddy Bears. They loved it.


The adults had the various desserts and all were yummy and decadent, lol.
Valrhona Chocolate Fondant ($10) - it is a rich chocolate lava cake topped with a scoop of ice cream.



Velvet Chocolate & Banana ($8) - chocolate ball in banana sauce and banana pieces, with pieces of crumble. A perfect combination of sweetness! (I only took a tiny, tiny bit of chocolate, lol :P)


Strawberry & Honey Star ($8) - honey stars in cream, topped with fresh strawberries and a scoop of vanilla ice cream. This one was a hit with the girls too.


Bailey's Panna Cotta ($7) - panna cotta topped with a layer of corn flakes soaked with bailey and bailey foam (I think). This one had lots of after kick, lol. But it was still delicious.


A-La-Misu ($7) - it is tiramisu with a difference. It was accompanied with crunchy meringue like biscuits and vanilla ice cream.


Lemon Cheese Cake - a rich lemon cheese cake. :)


After our desserts, we had tasty biscotti to accompany our coffees and tea.


We had a great dinner and really enjoyed ourselves. The dishes were delicious and unique and so were the desserts. We will definitely be back at Cafe Fahrenheit, for it's Sunday Brunch soon. :)



Besides, being able to design a menu for your private functions, Cafe Fahrenheit's a la carte menu offers salads, soups, pasta & risotto, sandwiches, main courses, desserts which they change every two months or so. The prices are pretty reasonable, range from $10 to $18 for light meals and main courses. You can go to their website for a look: http://www.cafefahrenheit.com.sg/ Although the cafe is not very big, while we were there from 7pm to 8:30pm, the place was packed with families and youngsters. Goes to show that the food must be good, lol. :) Go try this place if you can.
