Another waffle dish on the menu is Roffles Platter ($20+) which sees a freshly made rosti waffle paired with sauteed mushrooms, sausages, a poached egg, sundried tomato, and lime hollandaise dressing.

Otherwise, if you’re feeling adventurous, go for the locally inspired Otah Bruschetta ($18+) that’s said to be quite the hit.

If you love carbs, they’ve got Sakura Cream Tagliatelle ($20+), where the thick-cut pasta is dressed in mentaiko cream and tossed with scallops, tiger prawns, clams, and cherry tomatoes, then finished with sakura ebi. On the side, try their Truffle Bacon Mac & Cheese ($12+) that stars a house-made cheese mix, topped with Grana Padano cheese.

On the drinks front, there’s specialty coffee sourced from homegrown brand Hook Coffee, transformed into the likes of Iced Puff Rice Cafe Latte ($8+) and Sea Salt Caramel Latte ($8+). If you prefer something without coffee, go for the Milky Popcorn ($8+) that’s a Japanese sencha with roasted rice and butterscotch popcorn notes.
