ARTICHOKE CAFE & BAR - FAR AWAY FROM THE CLASSICS

FEELING LIKE HAVING A SUNDAY BRUNCH FAR AWAY FROM THE CLASSICS?
ARTICHOKE CAFE & BAR IS YOUR READYMADE REBELLIOUS PARTNER!

THEY ARE MANY REASONS WHY WE LOVE ARTICHOKE CAFE, BUT IF WE HAD TO PICK ONE, IT WOULD BE FOR THEIR PRODIGIOUS AND REVISITED SMOKED SALMON PANCAKES WITH SOUR CREAM, WASABI PEAS, EGG MAYO, & HONEY ($24).

THE SECOND REASON WOULD BE THEIR CAULIFLOWER SABBICH, A PITA BREAD SPLIT AND OPENED IN TWO GENEROUSLY FILLED WITH FRIED CAULIFLOWER, SMOKED EGG, HUMMUS, ISRAELI SALAD, HERBS & CORIANDER ($22).

THE RELAX AND COSY ATMOSPHERE OF THE ARTICHOKE TERRACE MAKES  IT THE PERFECT PLACE TO CHILL OUT WITH FRIENDS FEELING AWAY FROM THE CITY EXALTATION -  MEANWHILE EXTREMELY WELL LOCATED IN THE CENTER OF BUGIS.

EVEN THOUGH WE SUBSCRIBED FOR REBELLIOUS KITCHEN WE STILL KEPT A CHILD SOUL INSIDE OF US.... THE BILL IS ALWAYS MORE SWEET WHEN WE GET IT WITH CANDY BAG, RIGHT? ARTICHOKE IS APPLYING IT AND BIG KIDS LOVE IT!
