Old favourites will be available at this new cafe, too. Tuck into the familiar flavours of dan bing AKA Taiwanese omelette, priced from $4.80 for the basic rendition. This traditional breakfast item stars a thin and chewy crepe-like pancake enveloping savoury add-ons including egg. Other fillings such as meat floss and cheese are also available, should you want something more substantial.
