Great Meal Deals: Pizza Set Meal from Swissbake @ Anchorpoint

My first memories of a swiss bakery are that of the Hiestand Swiss Gourmet Bakery that used to have outlets in Centrepoint and even a cafe at United Square before they upped and disappeared from the scene. From what I gather, the new entity called Swissbake took over Hiestand's operations and distribution in Singapore and look to be doing well so far with quite a few outlets opening around the Island. Well known for selling wonderful pastries and savouries, you would probably not associate them with hot meals but this is the value proposition I will highlight to you.
At the Anchorpoint outlet, they are offering a real value for money deal for a pizza set at only S$9.90. 
Pizza: Choice of 5 flavours: BBQ Chicken, Salmon (Pictured above), Marguerita (Vegetarian), Tuna and Hawaiian (Ham & Pineapples). The thin crust pizza is of a substantial size and definitely puts Pizza Hut's personal pan pizza to shame with its size and generous toppings. The Salmon Pizza had pieces of  Smoked Salmon on each pizza slice. 
Salad: No Choice here, it comprises mainly of rocket lettuce, tomatoes, drenched in a vinaigrette. (not a big fan of salads, felt like I was eating grass here, *LOL*)
Gourmet Coffee: I chose Swiss Coffee this time (aka Black coffee with 2 small cups of Swiss Creamer and a small biscuit) You can select an option from the hot coffee selection which includes Cappuchino, Expresso etc. Most of the coffees start from above S$3 so that makes the pizza costs less than S$6. 
And as if these were not enough, they even gave us a complimentary slice of cake (sponge cake with a berry filling at the centre) during this visit. 

Verdict: Excellent value for money even without the cake. Do check it out if you're in the area! You could also take the opportunity to stock up on their lovely pastries and pies. Yum! 

Price: S$9.90 for a personal pizza, a salad and a gourmet coffee 

Where: 370 Alexandra Road #01-05/06, Anchorpoint
Operating Hours: Daily, 9.30am - 9.30pm

I had meant to post this offer earlier in the year, but for whatever reason Swissbake decided to remove this offer soon after but have lately restored it. However I did notice that there are fewer Gourmet Coffee options now (i.e. they removed the Affogato and Irish Coffee options). Still Good value though.
