Photos help to capture our memories in remarkable ways, sparked by a dash of color or a visual feast. The memories come flooding back like a tidal wave. These are my memories of food - some of the very best. They make me laugh. Sometimes we forget what we have, because of what we want. These are my memories.

Time Travel: Back to Sun 31 May (P.S.Cafe)



Sunday brunch is always a treat in Singapore. Marmalade Pantry is a tried and tested Sunday brunch favorite – you are never disappointed. However, you are also never surprised and the café menu has not changed very much over the years. On this particular Sunday, we decided to try out P.S. Café in the same building (Palais Renaissance). I felt like a traitor, walking past Marmalade Pantry to get to PS. Café on the first floor. Surprisingly, Marmalade still had several tables open for lunch – perhaps we were still early. You may know the original P.S. Café’ is in Paragon neatly tucked behind a fashion retail outlet.
This is more spacious with high ceilings that create a contemporary remake of a colonial café. Nice atmosphere and creating some buzz. We placed three orders – Wagyu beef burger, Spaghetti and Banana pancakes. It was food cooked well and nicely done. I cannot rave about P.S. Café like I did with Delicious in KL. Their menu simply does not stand out, and does not excite like Marmalade’s menu of more than 6 years (plus or minus a year or two, who’s counting). It needs to be simplified, and punchier. Owners of P.S. Café, please take a leaf out of Delicious in KL. There is no reason for me to go back to P.S. Café otherwise.
