Coffee and a Butter-sugar toast

I’m not a morning person. I barely have patience in the morning. That’s why I don’t usually talk in the morning, until I get my daily dose of tea tarik and some French toast. I cook my own French toast, so I just bring them with me and get my tea tarik on the way. But last week, my friend asked me if we can get breakfast first before going to work. Its 10am, that’s past my breakfast and would mean that I’m on my 2nd tea. I still accompanied her and we made our way to this famous Singaporean breakfast place.

Tea Tarik means “pulled tea”. It tastes sweet because they use condensed milk instead of ordinary sugar. Some still put sugar on theirs, but I like mine without the added sugar. That’s going to be too sweet for me.

She also got me those buttered-sugar toasts. Maybe because I haven’t had buttered toast in awhile but this bread is really good. It wasn’t too sweet or too buttery. The outer part is crusty, but the inside part of the bed is so soft, and not saggy at all. The butter is melted on the bread with sprinkles of sugar on top.

I liked it a lot. With the tea, I totally forgot that this is my second breakfast already. The toast is thicker than the usual slice of bread. Maybe that’s why the butter didn’t turn the bread saggy. The sugar on top was not burnt, but it didn’t taste raw.

I’m not sure why I haven’t been going to this place for so long, because I know they offer simple and tasty breakfast options. So, I guess enough of French toast for now and hello, butter-sugar toast.
