52 Sandwich Shack - Cheesy Sandwiches at Basement of Raffles City Shopping Centre

 52 Sandwich Shack

 
I have watched Say Chiizu Toast’s video on Facebook when it went viral on Facebook a few months ago and the stretchy cheese sandwich left a deep impression on me.  Ever since then, I was on the lookout for news of this grilled cheese’s entry into Singapore. 
 
I was walking around the basement of Raffles City Shopping Centre one day when I saw that the spot previously occupied by Koki Tamagoyaki has been replaced by 52 Sandwich Shack and its 52 Grilled Cheese looks pretty similar to Say Chiizu Toast.

52 Sandwich Shack offers 6 sandwiches, namely 52 Grilled Cheese [$6.90], Bacon Mac ‘N’ Cheese [$7.90], Yakiniku Pulled Pork [$8.90], Sliced Beef with Onsen Egg [$11.90], Teriyaki Chicken [$9.90] and Truffles ‘N’ Mushroom [$9.90]. The helpful staff told me that the first 3 sandwiches are the most popular, so that’s what I brought.

52 Grilled Cheese [$6.90] is the classic original version. Three types of cheese are used: cheddar for its popularity among Singaporeans, mozzarella for the stretchy pull of cheese and fontina to balance out the flavours. It is best eaten hot so you get the satisfaction of the gooey cheese in your mouth and it is also the best time to take a picture of the cheese pull. I like the combination of the 3 kinds of cheese that makes it cheesy but not overly heavy on the stomach.

I am a little disappointed with the Bacon Mac ‘N’ Cheese [$7.90]. I can hardly taste the bacon and the 3 kinds of cheese totally cancelled out the mac and cheese. It is more like “52 Grilled Sandwich with Macaroni”.

Yakiniku Pulled Pork [$8.90] is the most interesting of the three. Shredded pork is marinated in homemade yakiniku that gives the meat a delicious sweetness. Paired with the 3 kinds of cheese and buttered brioche, the sweetness of the pork goes well with the cheeses, making this a tasty meal of its own.

Besides sandwiches, 52 Sandwich Shack also serves breakfast from 8.30am to 11 am. There are 3 options for choose from Sausage Set [$3.90], Bacon Set [$3.90] and Confit Salmon Set [$4.90] where sausage, bacon and smoked salmon is served alongside mushroom, scramble egg, brioche and hash brown. 
 
Although 52 Sandwich Shack is not Say Chiizu Toast, it does offer some pretty decent sandwiches which make for a tasty light meal or snack. Oh yes, Shuu puffs are still available at 3 for $12.

PAUL

PAUL is a renowned family French bakery and patisserie founded in 1889. Bringing with them them the fine tradition of passion for food and French traditions, PAUL gives Singaporeans a glimpse into French culture and tradition through the delicious and visually-appealing pastries and food.       PAUL's Hot Chocolate is not as creamy as I would have liked it but every last drop is made with good-quality cocoa powder.     Lemon Tart With Meringue is not exactly my favourite dessert, but it looked so pretty that I decided to give it a try anyway. However, it proved to be too sour for my palette even with the beautifully flamed meringue.    Croque Madame is croque-monsieur (grilled ham and cheese sandwich) topped with a fried egg. Emmental cheese, cream and ham is sandwich in pain de eie and toasted till a rich golden brown colour. Topped with a fried egg with runny yolk, every bite is filled with delicious goodness.   Address and telephone n...

O'ma Spoon

                        Korean bingsu is a popular Korean dessert comprising of ice shavings and various ingredients such as sweetened condensed milk, fruit syrups, fresh fruits, Korean rice cake and ice-cream. Bingsu is all the craze in Singapore now and Korean bingsu cafes are popping up everywhere like wild mushrooms.                            Besides bingsu, this dessert cafe also serves usual cafe offerings such as coffee and tea. I have been told that their Signature Oven-Baked Honey Bread is very good. The flavours include Strawberry & Chocolate with Ice Cream, Banana & Chocolate with Ice Cream and Green Tea with Ice Cream.     I was told that   Mango Cheesecake Bingsu   is one of the most popular item on the menu. Oh my, it is a sight to behold! A bowl of shaved ice is topped with sweetened condensed milk and freshly-cut m...

Grandma's - Authentic Singapore Food

Grandma's has been around for quite a while now but I only got the chance to try their food recently when the third outlet opened in Suntec City.        I remember having these prawn crackers when I was little. They are so easy and good to eat, I can finish a whole package of this in one sitting.     I don't usually order Malay food, but the Nasi Bukhari looked so good in the menu, I thought I will give it a try. Fragrant yellow turmeric rice is served with golden brown chicken leg which is crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. Prawns were fresh and succulent but I don't really like the sauce the prawns are cooked in. What really amazes me about this dish is the beef rendang.          I never knew Bo Bo Cha Cha is so such a delightful dessert until I tried it here at Grandma's. The warm and thick coconut tastes so good with chunks of sweet potato and yam. This is definitely comfort food that warms the heart.   Gr...
