Riders Cafe

Pacific Benedict...with swimmer crabs, spinach and shrimp hollandaise. Enjoyed every bit of it and it was so full of crab pieces in between! Heard from the staff that this is served only during weekends.

I guess there are times that I just like to be left alone. Today is one of those days. There are also times that I like to pamper myself with a little treat and of course today is one of those days. Felt like finding a quiet place and just enjoy a nice good lunch. Had been thinking of eggs benny too. Decided to check out Riders Cafe at Bukit Timah Saddle Club. As I drove along Fairway Drives, it felt like a place that I could escape from the hectic city life and a place where I could have a good lunch among lush greenery. It was not a very big cafe and thank goodness it's a rainy day hence it was rather cooling. Reservation is definitely recommended! I was lucky enough to get a seat which overlooked the horse stable and the greenery around, thanks to one of the staff who gladly acceded to my request. Simply loved my little spot at the corner of the cafe, away from the noise and crowd in the cafe. For the first time this week, I felt like I was really enjoying my food real slowly, oblivious to the crowd inside the cafe and with occasional glances at one of the brown horses in the stable. I never knew it was that therapeutic looking at them, such tame and lovely beings, so much so that I think one would feel like sharing all those little secrets deep down with them.
