Intriguing. A Scandinavian-themed coffee shop marketing Danish-style and also swedish food … ideal contrary IKEA Alexandra.
Yes, Overbrod (or OVERBRØD) is a deli-inspired coffee shop idea focused around Scandinavian food, situated at the spruced up wing of Anchorpoint Shopping center.
A modest and also cosy area, though a little also under-the-radar and also might be difficult to locate since it is not within the major shopping mall itself (a number of stores from Anagram Coffee).
According to the proprietors, their journeys and also time invested in Sweden and also Denmark opened their eyes to different Scandinavian food which are much less generally located in Singapore.
These consist of the perfect Smørrebrød– a traditional Danish and also Norwegian open-faced sandwich offered on buttered rye bread, which is located anywhere throughout the area in some form or kind.
They have actually as a result adjusted the style as a springboard for their flavour pairings– some are Scandinavian-inspired, some much less so.
Also though I have actually been to Sweden itself, I can not claim that I am very acquainted with Swedish food (IKEA does not count haha), so this can be great beginning factor for numerous. Consisted of in their food selection are different designs of Smørrebrød (some telephone call this Danish-style buttered bread), Handmade Swedish Meatballs ( yesssh
) and also Hay-smoked Buttered Dill Potatoes.
Beginning with the sandwiches, there are selections of Gravadlax or Healed Salmon ($ 19), Salute Skagen or Shrimps ($ 18), Mushrooms ($ 15) and also Roast Beef ($ 18).
The roast beef with remoulade, horseradish kohlrabi slaw, potato chip furikake looked like a passionate yet much more traditional option, so I selected the Salute Skagen.
While some might simply watch this as a ‘easy’ coldwater shrimps sandwich, I believed that the nuance of its preference account mirrored or else.
There was this fresh and also tidy, yet vibrant flavour of mentaiko dill mayo and also tobiko; plus the buttered vetekaka (a Swedish-style bread) provided it a degree of altitude from the regular sandwiches available.
The fragile sweet taste of the prepared shrimps, along with quality of dill and also lemon, all on top of the buttery toasted bread gave an enjoyable comparison.
Delicious, though not the most inexpensive about, and also the Cook behind the kitchen area required a fair bit of time to construct this (after that I begin stressing over their margins).
The Frikadeller ($ 18) also known as Meatballs consisted of 6 hand-crafted meatballs on the top on potato mash, offered with marinaded cucumbers.
The meatballs hurt and also flavourful, with the brownish sauce including abundant deepness of flavour and also going along with lingonberry jam some intense fruity-tanginess.
I think individuals will seemingly contrast to IKEA’s even more affordable take, yet I want to see them as 2 various designs.
There is likewise a little curated choice of beverages– such as little set craft beers (presently from Denmark and also Sweden), and also Aquavit, which is generally eaten with Smørrebrød.
Great area to have a look at if you enjoy tidy, Nordic flavours with heart.
