Cedele By Bakery Depot @ 8 Shenton



One of those lunch dates that I adore...partly for good company, partly for good food...and most importantly...sit still to enjoy the food with much aplomb...i.e., a slow lunch. :) Rare occasions for that actually and within CBD, it's rare to find spots to enjoy lunch without being affected by the hurrying tempo of the people around you.

The first time in several years I actually sat in for a meal, not just takeaway desserts.

Beef Onion Cheese Burger; $9.80



Minced beef patty sandwiched between lettuce, tomato slices, cheddar cheese and caramelised onions, on walnut bread. Uber delicious! One of the heartiest burgers I've had in a while. The minced beef patty isn't too salty, nor fatty, in fact it's very meaty and delicious. The onions added the sweet touch to the burger. The cheddar cheese went really well, not too salty either. Was so good, I couldn't bear using a fork and knife, I ate it with my hands!

Mushroom Quiche; $3.60/slice



A bland start to the meal, the mushrooms were generous but the pastry was somewhat dry and biscuit-like. Lacks a buttery finish, but I reckon cedele's all for going healthy.

Orange Carrot; $6/ slice



It's an olive oil based cake with orange frosting. At first bite, found it a little dry. The dry texture's apparently due to the whole grain flour used, or so explained by the counter staff. Other than that, delicious orange frosting. Couldn't quite taste the carrot in the cake though.



Overall, a very satisfying meal, minus the slight service glitch when it came to the water servings. We requested for 'warm water' BUT, the staff rejected getting them for us, referring us to the counter instead. Alas, she served the table NEXT to us cups of water minutes later.

Will be back, but definitely not for the service.
