Buttery Boy is a slick and minimal cafe that specialises in mouth-watering brunch bites. Located on Chinatown Mall as part of the Mr Duncan’s collective, Buttery Boy’s menu is headlined by its signature item, the buttercake. This supersized hotcakes are available in a variety of options. The fun starts with the OG, a classic unadorned buttercake that comes with a glossy glug of maple syrup and your choice of butter. Guests can pick between melty pads of honeycomb, blackberry, Biscoff, maple or espresso butter, or opt for one of three specialty buttercakes. There’s the pavlova, with lemon curd, passionfruit and vanilla cream, a cinnamon bun-inspired variant with Biscoff spread, vanilla mascarpone and doughnut glaze, and a decadent s’more-inspired buttercake that comes topped with toasted marshmallow, Lindt chocolate and graham crackers. After something savoury? Guests can go to town on brekkie bowls (filled with folded eggs, cheese, bacon, spinach, avocado and yuzu dressing), four kinds of English muffin eggs Benedict (including one with Christmas ham), bacon-and-egg burgers, wagyu cheeseburgers, and a crispy buttermilk fried-chicken burger. On the coffee front, Buttery Boy is serving Coffee Supreme as its house blend, though beans from Passport are also on deck for filter brews. Specialty drinks like turmeric lattes, ‘boujee’ hot chocolates and the bboy latte (a beverage mixing cold brew with condensed milk) are also available.
