The Cellar Door has lost its charm on me since its relocation. We love having breakfast at its dark but cosy former outlet. I could wear my glasses, not put on make-up and felt at home. Technically, the new outlet at Vivo is an improvement - bright, airy, cheery and much easier to maneuver in. However, dragging myself to a busy shopping centre is not quite a good start to a lazy weekend.

Nevertheless, we still want a quiche behind that cellar door. Thick and creamy egg custard coupled with buttery crust. Packed with fibrous but sweet leeks. The Cellar Door serves one of the best quiche with leeks ($9) in Singapore. Leeks are excellent diuretic, something I always eat when my weighing scale is tipping in the wrong direction. The Cellar Door also whipped up a good flat white ($5). I like how hot, creamy and robust the coffee was but dislike the acidic aftertaste. It was also too foamy for a flat white. But my discerning coffee drinker friend found the acidic taste pleasant. Service was excellent and we were treated like king and queen despite of our pitiful order! Two of us quickly shared everything and scooted.
