When life gives you lemons, make the lemonade. When the fridge gives you eggs, find the sausages, fry the bacon, butter that bread and HAVE THE BEST BIG BREAKFAST you’ve been always drooling about and frankly if I had a choice between dinner and lunch together or just Big Breakfast all day, you probably know what the answer already based on the topic I’m salivating upon. Just in case someone forgot how irresistible an image of a BIG BREAKFAST can afford to look like ?

Nestled among cafes in Love Lane, Wheeler’s coffee is that one cafe to stop by if you’re unfamiliar with the environment and doubting the quality of food. Though I personally haven’t tried the Big Breakfast (Go try!! Worth every penny,.Less than 25 bucks), their Matcha Lava Cake is the next best thing in the world. No kidding!

Tasty Toasty provides Big Breakfast that would go well with a cup of coffee. And they don’t stop there!

Basically your local Kopitiam with an edge.
