PS.Cafe is one of the most popular café chains – rightfully so, since there’s no other joint that’s as well known for their truffle shoestring fries. Luckily for East-siders, they’ve just opened their newest outlet at the newly-revamped shopping mall i12 Katong, marking it as the second PS.Cafe this side of Singapore.
As always, their newest outlet is tastefully done. High ceilings, glossy black-and-white tiles, and a pet-friendly outdoor terrace pay tribute to the grand seaside villas that once sprawled across this neighbourhood. The menu isn’t any different, with Peranakan influences made loud and clear. For one, the Bali beef rendang bowl ($29) comes with generous chunks of beef cheek and shallot-scented rice – with sambal tempeh, winged beans, achar, and prawn crackers on the side.
The laksa spaghettini ($26) fits right in too. This pesto pasta might’ve been around since the chain’s very first outlet in Paragon, but it now offers a subtle nod to the fame surrounding the classic laksa lemak, a dish that’s often attributed to Katong. Even the desserts have gotten an overhaul, with a new chendol panna cotta ($15) that’s exclusive to this outlet.
But besides fusion fare, this particular outlet still serves up tasty food that diners repeatedly flock back for. An antioxidant superfood salad ($27) with blueberries, pumpkin, and quinoa, a smoked bacon beef burger ($30), or simply just truffle fries ($17) – they know how to draw in a crowd, that’s for sure.
While Katong is already known for its slew of food haunts and new cafés, PS.Cafe fits right in. Pop by for a lazy weekend brunch on a cool day to make the most of the outdoor terrace – you can even bring your dog along.
