Antoinette's Salted Yolk Lava Croissant - Supposedly Best Salted Egg Croissant in Singapore

 DanielFoodDiary (The Best Salted Egg Croissant In Singapore Is … Yes, We Tried All 5 Of Them), one of Singapore's most prestigious food blogger, ranks this as the best salted egg croissant in Singapore. That's right, we are talking about Antoinette's Salted Yolk Lava Croissant. 

 
Let's go and find out if Antoinette's Salted Yolk Lava Croissant is really as good as everyone makes it out to be. 
 

 

 

 

 

 

Antoinette's Salted Yolk Lava Croissant is supposed to be the best salted egg croissant in Singapore, but I have to say I am not impressed. The croissants are super crispy having been heated up in an oven before being served, but it lacks the buttery taste of a good croissant. The salted egg filling is really thick, it does not really have the lava consistency of a good salted egg filling. The grainy texture of salted egg is there but the contrast between the savory and sweet is kind of muffled.
 

 

 

 
If salted egg is not your thing, you there is Chili Crab Croissant for you. Still the same flaky and lacking-in-butter croissant, filled with specially concocted spice paste that is mildly spicy. You definitely can taste the shreds of real crab meat but I personally find the filling not creamy enough. That being said, I am loving the idea behind infusing Singapore local cuisine with traditional French techniques to create a masterpiece. Do note that the Salted Yolk Lava Croissant is sold out pretty fast due to limited quantity everyday, try to reach before 2pm. 
 
In my humble opinion, Antoinette's Salted Yolk Lava Croissant is not really as good as it is hyped up to be. Chilli Crab Croissant is an interesting fusion of East and West but sadly still lacking a little "oomph".

PAUL

PAUL is a renowned family French bakery and patisserie founded in 1889. Bringing with them them the fine tradition of passion for food and French traditions, PAUL gives Singaporeans a glimpse into French culture and tradition through the delicious and visually-appealing pastries and food.       PAUL's Hot Chocolate is not as creamy as I would have liked it but every last drop is made with good-quality cocoa powder.     Lemon Tart With Meringue is not exactly my favourite dessert, but it looked so pretty that I decided to give it a try anyway. However, it proved to be too sour for my palette even with the beautifully flamed meringue.    Croque Madame is croque-monsieur (grilled ham and cheese sandwich) topped with a fried egg. Emmental cheese, cream and ham is sandwich in pain de eie and toasted till a rich golden brown colour. Topped with a fried egg with runny yolk, every bite is filled with delicious goodness.   Address and telephone n...

O'ma Spoon

                        Korean bingsu is a popular Korean dessert comprising of ice shavings and various ingredients such as sweetened condensed milk, fruit syrups, fresh fruits, Korean rice cake and ice-cream. Bingsu is all the craze in Singapore now and Korean bingsu cafes are popping up everywhere like wild mushrooms.                            Besides bingsu, this dessert cafe also serves usual cafe offerings such as coffee and tea. I have been told that their Signature Oven-Baked Honey Bread is very good. The flavours include Strawberry & Chocolate with Ice Cream, Banana & Chocolate with Ice Cream and Green Tea with Ice Cream.     I was told that   Mango Cheesecake Bingsu   is one of the most popular item on the menu. Oh my, it is a sight to behold! A bowl of shaved ice is topped with sweetened condensed milk and freshly-cut m...

Grandma's - Authentic Singapore Food

Grandma's has been around for quite a while now but I only got the chance to try their food recently when the third outlet opened in Suntec City.        I remember having these prawn crackers when I was little. They are so easy and good to eat, I can finish a whole package of this in one sitting.     I don't usually order Malay food, but the Nasi Bukhari looked so good in the menu, I thought I will give it a try. Fragrant yellow turmeric rice is served with golden brown chicken leg which is crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. Prawns were fresh and succulent but I don't really like the sauce the prawns are cooked in. What really amazes me about this dish is the beef rendang.          I never knew Bo Bo Cha Cha is so such a delightful dessert until I tried it here at Grandma's. The warm and thick coconut tastes so good with chunks of sweet potato and yam. This is definitely comfort food that warms the heart.   Gr...
