Long ago, the Marmalade Group staked out the higher ground of casual Western meals, and it’s never really let go of the prize. Its Toast outlet at Raffles Place is a hive of lunchtime activity, with a predominantly expat clientele. Daily specials keep things interesting, though we’re always partial to the green soba noodles ($6.50) scented with sesameseed oil and enmeshed with crisp sugar snap peas and shiitake mushrooms. The wraps (around $7.50) are hefty rolls of imaginative fillings like spicy chicken, fresh mango and mint; though our recent roast chicken, roast peppers and Emmenthal combo could have done with a zesty relish. The home-made soups (from $5.50) come with a chunk of ciabatta. To finish, order one of the yummy lemon cupcakes ($3.70).
Toast was included in our recent Eating Al Desko - Working Lunch feature.
