In this edition, Saucy x The Coffee Academics Singapore offers the Umami Up Brunch Set ($30). Consisting of a Egg Benedicts and Iced Yuan Yang. Both the items has a surprising twist.

Instead of crowning the poach egg with Hollandaise Sauce, one is with Century Egg Lava Sauce and the other is with Salted Egg Lava Sauce.

 

Personally, I really love it with Century Egg Lava. Coupling the creamy acquired taste sauce with seafood was a surprise. I never thought this is a killer combination. With the seasoning on top, augmented the flavour further.

While the one with Salted Egg Lava Sauce and crab meat is pale in comparison. The salted egg flavour was masked by brininess. Maybe the sauce was lacking in curry leaves and an added chilli spice would do the trick.

The Egg Benedicts is paired with a Iced Yuan Yang with a twist. This classic Hong Kong Cha Chaang Teng beverage is the marriage of the TCA House Blend and Tea Academics Blend. The result was a smooth, velvety with complex flavours of nutty, chocolate, floral and fruity.
