Growing up, rosti used to be a dish I could only get from Marché. Everyone who has paid a visit to the Swiss-themed market-restaurant will know that the rosti stall is one of its best—its constant, long queue is a testament to the fact. Since then, however, rosti has become a much more accessible dish, making its way to cafes and even hawker menus islandwide.
While most eateries that offer the crispy Swiss potato pancake charge a pretty penny for a serving, the places we’ve rounded up on this guide serve up some of the best rosti in Singapore without breaking the bank. Most are under $15 too!

When Breakfast Club opened in 2021, it made waves because it offered cafe-style breakfast in a hawker setting. While their all-in Breakfast Plate ($9.90) is their most popular option, they also do a Rosti with Sausage and Egg ($8.90). The rosti is made in-house, and served with a fried egg, a dollop of sour cream, as well as a herby sausage, all on a skillet.

Newly opened Baole Desserts is a hole-in-the-wall Toa Payoh kiosk that sells both Taiwanese desserts and rosti from $5.90. Instead of the classic rosti style, where the potato pancake is served with sour cream, and a fried egg, Baole Desserts plates theirs up okonomiyaki-style, with a drizzle of mayonnaise and sweet teriyaki sauce. The shredded potato is also tossed with sweet onion and mozzarella cheese for added oomph. They also serve their rosti with a variety of different toppings, including mentaiko sauce and seafood, beef cubes, and smoked duck.

If you’d like to splurge, you can also get their Rosti with Salmon for $12.90! This is accompanied by a full salmon fillet, seasoned with herbs.

The cheapest rosti here is their Cheese Sausage ($8.50) offering, which comes with a fried egg, and a cheesy pork sausage. You can zhng-up your rosti here with Snail Pork Sausage ($10.20), akin to the kind you get at German restaurants, or even an NZ Chilled Ribeye ($17.50)!
