Campos Coffee May Menu 2012
Each month Campos Coffee changes their menu
this was the first time we visited Campos to try their monthly menu specials!
Because we had quite a large group, they
offered us a private dining room! This room was called The Roasting Room and as
the name suggests, it was decorated with a bags of coffee beans, a roasting
machine and posters of different aromas of coffee. The private room also had a
service bell to make sure you weren’t left out in an isolated environment.
Coffee at Campos was fantastic as usual!
Today, we ordered exclusively from their
May 2012 Menu:
Croissant French Toast with caramel apples,
vanilla mascarpone, sweet nut dukkah
This was probably the best French
toast-related dish I’ve ever had! Usually, other French toasts I’ve had are
either too oily or too soggy bcause of the sauce. However, today, it was
perfecto! The caramel apples weren’t too sweet and you could taste the
freshness of the apples.
Smoke Salmon Fish Cakes with house made
tartar sauce, house salad
This dish was presented the best out of
everything simply because it was served on a wooden chopping board. They were
very generous with the amount of salmon in the fish cakes but I thought it
didn’t taste as nice as it looked; Probably because I don’t think it was the
best way to cook the salmon.
Three Grain Risotto with wild mushroom,
asparagus, green beans, and Persian feta.
This was one of my favourite! Not only did
they use the three types of grains for the risotto rice, they also used three
different types of mushrooms! Being a mushroom lover, this was a bonus! The
risotto was cooked just right – right amount of creaminess and right amount of
flavor! Definitely should be a permanent item on their menu!
Fettucine Pasta with mixed mushrooms,
roasted French shallots, herbs, croutons, chilli lemon ricotta
A-m-a-z-i-n-g! The fettucine pasta was full
of flavor! With so many types of seasonings and herbs, the taste blended really
well with each other! Not sure if i could eat a whole plate of that for
breakfast though…
Pumpkin Pancakes with candied pecans,
vanilla ricotta and maple syrup
This was the other one of my favourite! The
pumpkin pancakes had the perfect balance between the fluffiness of pancakes and
the smooth and aromatic taste of pumpkin! The pumpkin taste was subtle and did
not overpower the pecans, maple syrup not the ricotta. In fact, those all had
to be eaten in one bite to get the best combination of taste! This needs to be
a permanent item on the menu as well!
Overall, the May Menu did not disappoint me
at all. Campos is well known for their expertise in coffee and their food is
just as scrumptious too!
