9th December 2016

Black food worth going back to


There is a common saying of, “Once you go black, you’ll never go back”. Well, we are pretty sure once you’ve tried all these black dishes, you will go back to have it again and again. Seductive and sexy, these black versions of your favourite dishes are aesthetically pleasing upgrades from the norm.


1. Black waffles

Black charcoal waffles might look a little dubious but they sure taste good with ice-cream! Twenty Grammes offers their Charcoal Waffle ($8.50) plain with salted egg sauce. If you want something fancier, add a single scoop of ice-cream for $3.50 more. You can even mix things up by ordering a Yuan Yang Waffle with Soft Serve ($15) that comes with a delicious drizzle of chocolate sauce.

2. Black fish and chips

Charcoal Fish And Chips ($14+) at The Pipe District caught our attention with its black exterior that has charcoal added in to give it a slightly earthy taste. Served with either sweet potato fries or regular fries, the fried fish has a nice crunch due to its light batter. Those with picky taste buds can also make a choice between different types of fish here.

3. Black panini

King crab and prawns sandwiched between Squid Ink Panini ($13++) sounds tantalising, but its looks might be a turnoff to some. This panini is a hearty and dense sandwich filled with juicy crab and prawn filling that could easily be a light and satisfying meal for two. Sink your teeth into this as your lounge al fresco at Dolcetto By Basilico.

Even though these Mini Black Charcoal Egg Custard Buns ($4.20++ for three buns) from Goodwood Park Hotel don’t contain flowy salted egg lava, they’re still equally shiok to eat. Available at both Min Jiang and Coffee Lounge within the hotel, these are an awesome treat for bao lovers. And don’t worry if you want to bring your prim and proper relatives here, ‘cause these buns don’t actually come with emoticons on top.

Drizzled with malt sugar, liquid marshmallows, salted caramel and topped with coconut ice-cream and toasted nuts, charcoal thick toast, or TAN ($14.90), served at Stateland Cafe certainly sounds good enough to whet our appetite. Baked twice to achieve a crispy texture, this is one toothsome toast to dig into.
