Pancakes with Warm Maple Butter ($19++)

Choice of Blueberries, Banana Walnut, or Chocolate Chunks

I love this pancake with chocolate chunks and icing sugar on it! Their maple butter sauce was addictive! The pancakes were fluffy and big portion with thick fragrant buttery taste! Definitely one of the BEST pancakes that I had!

Spanish Scramble ($21++)

Three eggs, chorizo, tomatoes, caramelized onions,

scallions, melted Monterey Jack, with hash browns

and sourdough toast

After the sweet stuff, let's move on with savory stuff. This is a special scramble that is uncommon in our local cafes. You can expect a very cheesy scramble egg filled with so many above-mentioned stuff inside which are melt in the mouth! But the sourdough toast was super hard. Overall it was very filling! 

Left: Salmon Burger ($24++)

Right: Eggs Benedict ($20++)

Haha I took this photo at the table next to us! Looks good too!

House Brew Coffee ($5++)

Overall Impression: Be prepared that this place will be crowded and noisy at most times especially during peak hours and weekends. Food quality was quite good and the portion of their food was really big, as the price is on the high side compared to other cafes. Some patience is needed as the waiting time for food was quite long during peak hours. 

This place is still so popular since 2015 till now, I even saw many people took a taxi here specially to this cafe! Haha.. Do come and try their food if you have not ya!

Note: Parking lots are limited for parallel parking.

Endless Saturday High Tea Buffet at D9 Cakery (581 Orchard Road - Hilton Singapore, Lobby Level, Singapore 238883) Reservation: 6730 3392

Visited on 20 May 2017 (Sat).

Rejoice high tea lovers! Finally there's a new great place to have a relaxing high tea!

Indulge in a lavish affair from artisanal desserts, signature Hilton cheesecakes, freshly baked scones, Teppanyaki ice cream to Swiss Raclette cheese, pulled pork sliders and more. 

The high tea is launched by D9 Cakery but the actual venue is inside Opus Bar and Grill restaurant. As the restaurant only opens for dinner, D9 cakery uses the restaurant for high tea on Saturday. What a smart way to utilise the restaurant!

Freshly Baked Scones

The scones lack the aromatic buttery taste and the texture was a tad hard. I expected the clotted cream to be sweet, but I don't understand why the taste was savoury instead?

Lemon Chocolate Fountain

It's a nice surprise to see a lemon chocolate fountain! But I forgot to try it! :(

Teppanyaki Ice-Cream Live Station

Flavour on that day: Chocolate

Chef Live Cooking Station

Chicken and Mutton Satay

Don't miss out on their satay - They're fabulous! The meat was extremely tender! 

Satay Condiments

Laksa Station

Fantastic Laksa

Perhaps they put more coconut milk, the gravy here was very fragrant and addictive!

Smoked Salmon with Black Bread

This is my favourite here! This is my first time to see finger sandwiches in black bread. Hope to see more black bread in buffets!

Tortilla Wrap with Roasted Chicken

Arugula with Avocado & Vine Tomato

Quinda Salad with Chick Pea & Bean Salad

Spicy Tuna On Hard Roll

Har Gau

Siew Mai

Mee Tai Bak

Red Bean Pau

Egg Custard Pau

Portuguese Egg Tart

Vegetable Quiche (Left) 

Croque Monsieur (Right)

Pulled Pork Slider

This is how the ingredients looked like inside! The taste was delicious!

Pork Curry Bun with Floss

Bar Counter

Front Dining Area

Back Dining Area

Creme Brulee Tea

I love creme brulee dessert so i was really delighted to find creme brulee tea in the menu! Very light buttery aroma with a finish that tastes like caramel.

Cappucino / Regular Coffee

They served illy coffee here. Love the roasted coffee scent!

Overall Impression: Their service was quite good except the clearing of plates was relatively slow. The disappointing part in the buffet was the variety of desserts which all looked very pretty but tasted just average. To be honest, none of the dessert were outstanding. Creme brulee definitely needs some improvement. It was very dry and without much torched caramelized sugar on it. Scones were not good too. 

The rest of the food were not bad, just that I found the pulled pork sliders to be difficult to eat for high tea. Haha! I like their coffee and TWG tea selection though! Good range and quality. Overall it was still quite a nice experience with cosy ambience, worth visiting at least once.
