\nCroute, pronounced as kroot, means crust. A bakery-cafe. Very relaxing, with lots of magazines, clearly a place that people can chill out for long.<\/td>\nAlso a bakery cafe, the decor was rather characterless.

\nIn addition to a main each, we four shared a bread basket<\/strong> ($9, with choices of dips). The best of the four mains was\u00a0truffle scrambled eggs<\/strong> ($18), a hot mess of black truffle atop creamy scrambled with umami mushrooms and pork sausage. All stacked on a piece of homemade sour dough bread.

\nI’d also recommend Spanish pork tortilla<\/strong> ($24), which had everything: braised shredded pork, scrambled eggs, guacamole, homemade pico de gallo, sour cream in a tortilla wrap.

\nAccording to Huccalyly, so-so 62 Degree Eggs Benedict<\/strong> ($22, smoked salmon, avocado and seaweed crumbs on homemade sourdough). She said, “They shouldn’t put ‘avocado’ on the menu, when it is like guacamole.”

\nFrench Toast Salpicon<\/strong> ($19), stuffed with chicken and mushroom, topped with chunks of goreng pisang, <\/em>and fruits – pretty, savory, and sweet.
