It was an impromptu plan to have our dinner at Halcyon & Crane and the fact that they are located in Paragon means that prices on their menu will be more pricey. It like a cafe but those expensive types of cafe. Since we didn't have better options, we decided to just go for it. The place was crowded on a friday night and there was only one server serving everyone. Caramel Chocolate Coffee Latte looks like something out of a science lab with its tall glass and milk and dark chocolate beaker. The ice cubes itself contains the coffee so this is what makes it special about it. First you pour the milk and chocolate in, then subsequently when the ice cubes start to melt, that is when you taste the coffee part. This is consider one of the more affordable drink under their coffee section. The initial taste of Orange Yuzu Passionfruit Latte has a very strong orange juice taste follow by a coffee bitter after taste. It was a unique and creative combination and goes well for me but not so for Terrence as he finds the combination to be incompatible. Sichuan Sausages Shakshuka was not really the type of food to me. Even though the menu stated it was spicy but it wasn't. The unique parts was the petal like ingredients which has a jelly like texture and bite to it. The tomato puree was overly sweet and I couldn't really taste any Sichuan flavour at all. It's more like egg, cheese and a tomato dish with chickpeas at the bottom of the dish. The toast was rather bland and hard. I guess the tomato salsa is much better than the rest and it contains bits of raw onion for that temporary spiciness. King's Chicken Hash Benedict doesn’t have a very strong Gong Bao chicken taste to it so it could be better. Portion was small. The eggs benedict however was cooked perfectly and seasoned well. Hash was flavoured and seasoned perfectly with a tint of chilli spices. It was personally my favourite and tastes like baby potatoes. Halcyon & Crane
