Founded 26 years ago with their first outlet at Boat Quay, Harry’s has established itself through constant reinvention and renewal as the place of choice for a quick tipple, a nightcap or after-work merriment.
At Dempsey Hill, Harry’s boasts an interior with accents of black wood panelling, white-washed walls and brown furniture that come together as a cohesive whole. For their new weekend brunch menu, Harry’s presents a curated selection of simple and classic brunch favourites.
The Eggs Benedict (S$15++) features two beautifully poached eggs. These eggs are served on two halves of an English muffin with smoked salmon (or a choice of ham) sandwiched in-between, and drizzled with a rich potion of hollandaise sauce. A handful of fresh, crisp, and undressed greens rounds off this perfect textbook example of a brunch appetiser.
Harry’s Fry-Up (S$13++) is a reinvention of the plain ol’ sunny-side up eggs with thoughtful additions of marinated cherry tomatoes, grilled button mushrooms, and the smallest, sweetest peas I’ve ever tasted. The charcoal toast served on the side lets you mop up all that yolky, eggy goodness.
I thoroughly enjoyed the Crispy Chicken Waffle (S$17++), a soul food of Pennsylvania Dutch origins served with a side of fresh lettuce and coleslaw. At Harry’s, the chicken has been brined and marinated with the same secret spice used in their Harry’s Signature Wings. It was crispy, mildly spicy and absolutely delicious.
Dip it into the sauce (a mix of Sriracha and maple syrup) before devouring it. This is a perfect and amazing combination. I would probably get twenty bottles of the sauce if they sold it.
The Breakfast of Champions (S$19++) features many individual items together in a dish, offering a delightful gastronomical experience. Here, every ingredient has been given the care and reverence it deserved.
The stand-out for me is the Italian Pork Chipolata and, surprisingly, the baked beans which have been cooked in a tomato-vegetable sauce to render its flavour rich and intense.
If you’re looking for something slightly sweeter on the taste buds for a weekend brunch treat, the Berries French Toast (S$15++) might just be Harry’s answer for you. The hearty brioche toast is drenched in eggs and pan-fried to a beautiful crisp. A smattering of fresh raspberries and blueberries gives this plate a fresh burst of sweet and citrus flavours. It balances out the rich chocolate drizzle, generous in both flavour and quantity. Now, who says dessert must be at the end of a meal?
As brunch draws to a close, I noticed the space filling up with pockets of families and kids in tow, friends pulling off a surprise birthday celebration, and a group of fathers huddled together at the quietest corner, deep in discussion.
In the light of day, Harry’s transformed into a rambunctious, family-friendly place for people from all walks of life. And if Harry’s is a champion for such meaningful gatherings, truly, what is there not to love?
