The Brulee

Tucked away along Aliwal Street near The Sultan hotel in the Bugis area, The Brulee has introduced Singaporeans to an innovative dessert concept that reimagines the classic French crème brûlée. This hole-in-the-wall establishment at 77 Aliwal Street specializes in Crepe Brulee - soft crepes enveloped by a crispy caramelized sugar layer that delivers the signature crack of traditional crème brûlée in handheld, portable form.

Each Crepe Brulee is made fresh to order, allowing customers to watch their dessert being prepared right before their eyes. Priced at , the menu rotates through five creative flavours including Apple Crumble, Chempedak, Tiramisu, Nutella, and The Classic. The Classic variant comes highly recommended, featuring fresh cream, cheesecake chunks, strawberry, and custard all wrapped in a crepe and crowned with that essential layer of caramelized sugar that must be cracked through to access the creamy treasures within.

The shop minimal setup features a small counter for takeaways and just two seats at an outdoor table, emphasizing the grab-and-go nature of this innovative dessert. The Brulee represents the kind of creative, Instagram-worthy food concepts that have made Singapore Bugis and Kampong Glam areas destinations for food adventurers seeking unique culinary experiences.
