The Marmalade Pantry has recently launched a brand new brunch menu, available only on weekends.
Whipped Feta Brulee 2.8/5
First, jazzing up the brunch experience is a sharing starter – Whipped Feta Brulee ($18). This dish features a creamy blend of whipped feta and cream cheese with a caramelised crust textured with pomegranate seeds, pistachios, and dates. Served with sourdough crostini, it’s akin to a mezze. It would have been more enjoyable with a higher ratio of feta, as I found the sweetness of the dip a tad cloying towards the end.
Crab & Chilli Scramble 3/5
We had the Crab & Chilli Scramble ($30) and Beef & Potatoes ($30) for mains. The first featured scrambled free-range eggs infused with homemade chilli jam and paired with poached lump crab meat. The crab meat was meaty and had a pleasant, sweet taste. The eggs were delightfully fluffy, but the sweet chilli jam made the dish’s overall taste a tad on the sweeter side rather than injecting that expected depth of heat or flavour.
Beef & Potatoes 4.2/5
On the other hand, Beef & Potatoes ($30) stood out with its tender 150-day grain-fed Australian beef brisket, served with a savoury white bean puree contrasted with sweet roasted grapes. The dish was completed with chunks of fluffy roasted potatoes, creating a well-balanced and hearty main course.
Skillet Pancake 3/5
For something sweet, the Skillet Pancake ($24) features a pancake prepared à la minute and served with berry blossom jam, Chantilly cream, and fresh berries sprinkled with crunchy granola mix. The light cream and tart jam were both delicious and their portions definitely can be more generous given the size of the pancake. The pancake resembled an airy sponge cake more than a pancake, but overall it was a delectable sweet weekend treat.
The new brunch menu selection can be enjoyed for dine-in at The Marmalade Pantry Anchorpoint from 11 am to 5 pm, the Novena and Downtown outlets from 11:30 am to 5 pm, takeaway (self-collection), and delivery with orders made online.
