在台北中地雷的机会好像不小。上次写的可蜜达还不算是超级地雷（因为不是所有点的食物都难吃）可是这家真的就让我们摇头say “Nooooooo！”
地雷就不用打写文章。看图就好吧～

【台北内湖】不想上班 只好喝拿鐵
大老远来到这里一定要来一杯招牌黑糖咖啡。咖啡由帅气的店家细心泡制。上层的奶油泡沫撒上黑糖、即使过了5-10分钟还是不会溶掉。喝第一口时已闻到咖啡的香气、先是温柔的甜味、紧接而来是咖啡的苦涩。两者融为一体，苦中带甜，甜中带苦，非常顺口，越喝越喜欢。
我不懂得品尝咖啡、我妹也是、所以不要叫我去研究它是什么什么咖啡豆等。可是我们可以很清楚地说这杯咖啡很～好～喝～。非常对味。连一直觉得这里的咖啡超难喝的老妈都不得不承认这杯是她这趟旅行中最好喝的一杯。
咖啡对牛奶的比例拿捏得恰到好处。对我而言已经是完美的一杯、无可挑剔。我还真是第一次觉得这杯咖啡竟然如此的疗愈～好想再来一杯。
更厉害的是这里的文字松饼。据说店家是量身定做了松饼机器、所以你绝对找不到第二家可以制作出那么“厌世”的松饼。
不知要选择 “不想上班”和“钱不够用”的可以两个都点。但是巧克力酱vs黑糖浆、我当然立马选了黑糖（巧克力酱太普通了咯）来配松饼。原本以为松饼应该只有拍照好看、没想到其实挺好吃的。松饼像在吃鸡蛋糕、虽然紮实但并不会让肚子吃了很涨。刚烤出来所以外皮还包有脆度。老实说这家的松饼还比一般西式早餐店的waffles 还是pancake都来的好吃。
这家店附近好像不是什么上班区（感觉像住宅区）、但还是有不少人来光顾。
不想上班的你、该来这里打卡啦！

【台北中山】可蜜達Comida 炭烤吐司
不要误会。吐司不难吃、只是没有让人叹为观止的感觉。店内限定的起司肉蛋重奏（半熟）看起来夸张吃起来起司其实没有很多。不会太腻不过中间包的猪肉片很硬很难咀嚼。
相比之下、鬼椒起司肉蛋肉蛋吐司（需点八九分熟才可切面）咬一口边吃得出来辣味、肉片也比较软嫩。
店内座位有限、还好平日八点多去才等了20分钟左右。如果要等更久就不值得啦。
据官方fb说从今年七月开始吐司一律不炭烤，你不觉得很可惜吗？

Cafe Pocher : My Tamago Surprise!
I didn’t have time for it’s most popular item, a racelette cheese hotdog sandwich that looked sinfully delicious. But I discovered something that would suit my budget and taste. Dashimaki sandwich! It is one of the four flavours that is available for takeaway. I learnt from the staff that these prepacked sandwiches are highly popular on weekdays as breakfast for the working community. These are sold starting from 8.30am and may run out by 10am occasionally.
So I “dabao” one even though I was doubtful whether it will taste good given the fact that it wasn’t prepared fresh but packed into a brown paper bag right from the fridge. “No reheating or microwaving is needed” answered the staff upon my further enquiry on whether I should reheat ( I always do that if possible as I love my bread hot and toasty).
Little did I expect myself to be wowed by such a humble sandwich (¥360) an hour later on my Shinkansen ride. The purple pickled vegetables from Tsukemono specialist Isoism (Kyoto is also famous for its Tsukemono aka pickles) were sour and salty but the presence did not overwhelm the juicy egg omelette which was minimally sweet. Even though the buns were kept chilled, they were still fluffy and not dry.
The pairing of pickled vegetables and eggs in a bun was such a brilliant and unique idea that I will never forget this moment in my life.
Breezing through the countryside in a Shinkansen and gleefully munching on a delicious find.

百春 Momoharu Kyoto : Back Alley Tamago Sandwich
Mention the word Kyoto and the word that pops up in my mind after “Matcha” is “Tamago”
The popularity of Dashimaki sando (egg sandwich) seems to have revived in recent years and the trend is more prevalent in Kansai than in Kanto region. As much as I love my desserts, I prefer my tamagoyaki to be savoury instead of sweet. Henceforth, the savoury dashimaki of the Kansai region is right up in my alley.
Hidden on the 2nd floor of a conspicuous alley of Nijou, Momoharu serves up its most popular dashimaki sando that uses at least 4 eggs and 2 slices of a typical 1kg loaf commonly sold at supermarkets. It’s a hefty amount of eggs and bread, but goes easier on your palate than La Madrague legendary Tamago sando. There’s no mayonnaise or other rich condiment/dressing, only homemade Demi glacé sauce slathered thinly on the warm fluffy bread. Salt (sorry, no pepper) can be added accordingly to one own’s preference.
The hand drip blended coffee (¥500) is another pickup but I don’t take coffee. The place is run by two ladies of different generations. This isn’t the oldest cafe in Kyoto serving dashimaki sando but one that allows you to enjoy your meal leisurely and watch the world goes by.

DAI's Deli & Sandwich Kyoto
Sandwiches are the king here and the prices are just as hearty as the portions. Be prepare to splurge at least ¥1200 for the sandwiches but I like the fact that the bread is thin and the fillings are generous. I retoasted my Special Egg sandwich using the microwave on the 2F as I dislike having cold food on cold days.
If this or the roast beef version isn’t lavish enough, there’s a lobster version going at ¥1980~ too.

The Bird Southern Table & Bar Opens at Marina Bay Sands
Award-winning Yardbird has finally opened its doors at Marina Bay Sands under the name The Bird Southern Table & Bar, offering authentic Southern U.S. cuisine and warm hospitality. Think hearty, comfort flavors that are rich and leaves you coming back for more.
On the table of almost every group of customers is the signature Chicken "n" Watermelon "n"Waffles ($45) which spells everything that you see on the plate. Brined in a secret marinade for 27 hours according to a heritage family recipe before being deep fried in an air pressure fryer, the chicken is not shatteringly crunchy but has a light crispness that retains moistness beneath the skin. Even the most challenging breast meat section was well-executed. The chicken wings are already very flavorful on its own but the honey hot sauce is readily available for that extra kick (though less spicy than Tabasco). Just as important here are the tender Vermont sharp cheddar Cheese waffles that works as an outstanding pair with the bourbon syrup.
The Macaroni n Cheese ($14) is another popular favorite (especially amongst kids) that is made with five artisanal cheeses. Probably because I had this immediately after the chicken, the taste was comparatively lighter than usual Cheese dishes elsewhere. But that's not a bad thing. Just try to dig in while it's hot before the pasta starts to dry up.
For those looking for light appetizers and drinks, The Bird's extensive beverage program serves up high quality cocktails, whisky and bourbons from the signature Blackberry Bourbon Lemonade and to the regional-inspired The Japanese Pork Chop, Ong Bak and Pandan Mule. The drinks are truly refreshing and their restrained sweetness is what I like best about them. In fact, alcohol lovers or wine connoisseurs would delight to know that The Bird boasts one of the most impressive selections of bourbon and internationally sought-after spirits. The menu even offers special bourbons to pair with the fried chicken!
Diners can enjoy them alongside appetizers such as the creamy deviled eggs and Fried Green Tomato B.L.T, of which the latter is a less common combination of house smoked pork belly, pimento cheese, smoky tomato jam all stacked on a deep fried green tomato. With plenty of umami-packed ingredients all in one bite, this dish would make you go mamma Mia. For desserts, we tried the Cafe Creme Brulee and Banana Pudding which are truly keeping up with the spirit of authentic Southern US desserts. In other words, they are extra creamy, rich, dense and sweet. Honestly speaking, I'm not a fan of their desserts. However, for their other interesting sweets that are not categorized under desserts (e.g. 77 elvis pancakes - peanut bacon butter, bourbon maple syrup, banana compote, chocolate chips) give me a call and I'll be right back anytime.
