A new shop (#01-12 Raffles Hotel Arcade, 328 North Bridge Road) doing galettes and crepes has opened up at the spot where Ah Teng's Bakery used to be at Raffles Hotel. From what I gathered (pun intended), the proprietors aren't new to these kind of business. It showed with how they handled the crowd.
Got a bottle of cider. Expensive but I did get drink at a shop in Raffles Hotel so there you have it. I'm not good at describing it but it's nice.
Their galettes included this one with potatoes and salami. Not bad. I liked that they bothered to pan fry those salami for a bit before they used them as a topping. But otherwise, it tasted like how it looked.
This was "Off The Bone". Ham, Gruyère, Cheddar and egg. How could I not like this? So simple yet it pushes almost all the tasty buttons on/in me. All on/in a light crisp galette.
Hot chocolate is..... okay. I've had better. *cough*starbucks*cough*
We tried a crepe. This one had Camembert, honey and some fig and Earl Grey preserve. The funky saltiness from the cheese obviously paired well with both the preserves and the honey so there - I liked this.
All these galetting and crepe-ing has gotten me curious about Entre-Nous Creperie just around the corner. It's been quite a while since. I wonder how they fare in comparison with Gather these days.

These guys also own Punch on North Canal Road, and the now-defunct Ronin and The Plain!
