Affordable dishes! there are so many cafes in this area i have to check all of them out soon oh my! anyway, i had the Beef Bolognese ($12.90) + Soup & Drink Set ($4.90) (Cream of Tomato & Mango Fizz) for dinner. the taste of capsicum and red peppers was really strong. not the best pasta, but i guess for this price, it was alright. the cream of tomato was not bad, it had a taste of sour cream which i liked. the cheesy garlic bread at the side was something interesting, compared to the usual plain garlic bread. in this picture also included the Smoked Duck Aglio Olio ($14.90), Tom Yum Seafood Pasta ($14.90) [which is their recommended but i'd say it was alright, i could cook that at home myself] and the Chicken Chop ($13.90).

Spice Up My Pasta 😋 Tom Yum Seafood Pasta ($14.90) was both tangy and spicy. Juicy prawns and clams with that creamy tom yum sauce! I love how cafes go creative on their menu! 😊

Craving Fusion Pasta Tom yum seafood $14.90 (-20% at 12am). Juicy crunchy prawns & huge clams, and amazing combination of cream & Tom yam spice.

I love #coffee because drinking(not wearing) black is a never-ending trend! Shoutout to #orioleandfriends with a coffee photo and state why you love coffee to stand to win a 1-for-1 coffee voucher at Oriole! Till 9th August(tomorrow!!) only, so be quick! Ps - throwback post, was taken during Oriole moving out party at Jiak Chuan Road.

Relived my #childhood days at #oriolecoffeeroasters #orioleismoving on Thursday. Individual pieces of papers from the Yellow Pages were rolled up in a cone-liked shape, and then filled with Kacang Puteh. I would avoid the peas at ALL cost but LOVE the sugar-coated peanuts very much!!😍😍 Those were the days. 👶👧

At the moving-out party of Oriole @ Jiak Chuan. Thank you for the coffee memory that you have shared with us!

Dark Chocolate Sorbet Chocolates and ice cream are just 2 of the best comfort foods. What's even better is when I can have them both together! Ft. A single scoop of dark chocolate sorbet.

Here's some coffee to power you up this week. 🙂 ⋅ #TheOrangeThimble #Coffee #CoffeeAndCravings

Raspberry Cream Cheese Cake ($6.50). An absolutely mediocre cake. Too sweet with a mousse like texture, and a thick and soggy base. To make things worse, the top layer was like a plastic film that came off with my first bite.

Matcha Latte, $ 6.80 Desserts are all so pretty and nice, I dunno what to choose so started with a hot matcha latte first

The G-Spot $10.50 Dark Chocolate Mousse, Chocolate Meringue, Dark Chocolate Hazelnut Praline Feuilletine Their signature cake. Worth the calories 😬

· 🍰 Green Slab of Matcha Tiramisu 。... ~ · Matcha Rum & Raisin Tiramisu - $10 · Something different from my usual pick at Patisserie G. This matcha tiramisu is composed of matcha mascarpone mousse, rum & raisin and dark cocoa-infused sponge cake. Soft texture and delicate flavour. Paired it with matcha latte for double intensity of matcha · Patisserie G @patisserieg

Sweet Potato Latte $4.80 If you're a sweet potato lover like me, you will like this. I like that it’s not too sweet and there are sweet potato bits inside.

Sweet Potato Latte No fancy latte art but finally found something similar to what I've had in Korea 😍 milky, fragrant and look at the bits of sweet potato!!

Hot Chocolate ($5.30) HAVE A GOOD SUNDAY EVERYBODY!!! 🙆🙆

This is a #throwback to DOC! Really awesome and quality food serve here.. By far the best scramble eggs I ever tried! I And waffle is very excellent as well! I would give the waffle and the egg a perfect score! Really well done! Unfortunately this place is close! Hopfully they will be back!Pls! Come back!!!!

Quality Food DOC always delivering and never disappointing! this pull pork sandwich was delicious mmm well seasoned pork with the creamiest scrambled eggs. Not forgetting good ass coffee!

Valhorna Chocolate Waffles with butterscotch ice cream, maple syrup, raspberry sauce, fresh strawberries ($20). Due to the dark chocolate batter, the waffles turn out to be thick and dense but love the butterscotch ice cream that goes well with it. Sourish raspberry sauce and sweet strawberries prevent you from chocolate overdose.

Matcha Latte ($6.50) I did passby this cafe a couple of times but then it just got people sitting on the side away from the path. I decided to rest for a while as last sat was too much people hung out at suntec. So matcha latte is not bad tbh as got milky and creamy texture and also quite sweet (slightly bitter taste).

Flat white $5.50 | Flat white Cozy setting w pretty good coffee ☕️

one of our favourite chill out place really love the ambience here. this time we had mocha, chai latte, red velvet cake and blackforest cake. 👍 - mocha and blackforest cake 😄

Massive Coffee Cravings..... Again. The plain and unpretentious coffee spot, serving up delicious caffeine shots to caffeine-starved souls like us. Special shout-out to their Generra ($5.50), mocha with orange zest (they're got an orange peel to prove it!), which was fragrant, smooth, creamy and slightly chocolatey. Perfect for orange chocolate fans. The Plain is located along Craig Road, just down the road from Selfish Gene cafe. Nearer train station being Outram Park MRT.

Dean's Breakfast If you like Vegemite with its absurd-yet-intriguing saltiness you'll like this, I think.. Nice combi with the poached eggs and Iced Generra.

Iced Generra Mocha with a twist of orange. So refreshing as the sun was scorching hot. Not pictured is Dean's Breakfast: poached eggs on melted cheese & Vegemite sourdough toasts. So Aussie. Whether you'll like the dish is another issue, if you like how Vegemite tastes you might like the toast.. The café has a vast collection of Monocle magazine too! It was not so crowded when I came on Saturday afternoon. A conducive place to eat followed by leisurely reading some magazines (or chatting with friends).

Voucher limitation 1-1 cakes cannot be used on weekends. This rule is not found in T&C though.

Note The 1-1 for cakes / pastries is not accurate. None of the pastries are part of the deal. Only the cakes.

BOGO mains Came back for the chicken breast soba noodles But it wasn’t as great as the first time I had it. Not sure why. Tried their beers too and it’s pretty nice, a chill place for dinner for the outside seats since it’s more cooling at night.

Savoury waffles Stack of waffles with candied bacon 🥓 and a scoop of ice cream. Extremely indulgent start to the day. The waffles were crisp yet fluffy (thankfully) and therefore eased off some of the heaviness which would have came along with the candied bacon and ice cream (a lil’ too sweet for the morning!) Nevertheless, a good meal of savoury and sweet delights!

Ondeh ondeh hotcake [$15] After the descent of Earl grey charcoal hotcake, ondeh ondeh hotcake is back on the menu once again! ✨ Pandan flavoured hotcake embedded with salted coconut ricotta creme, topped with Pandan coconut gelato, sprinkled with toasted coconut flakes and served with a side of gula melaka sauce. A deconstructed and revamped version of the Peranakan kueh that we are all familiar with, the hotcake was soft, fluffy with a slightly crisp surface layer that carries off a lingering aromatic pandan essence and fragrance. The texture was done to an ideal perfection- soft, light and sufficiently moist 💖. Unfortunately the salted ricotta creme got outshone by the distinct Pandan essence, harbouring a negligible effect to the overall flavour unless you were to consume it in silo. The colour of the Pandan coconut gelato got me turned off initially with an artificial shade of neon green but fortunately the taste did not disappoint, a pleasant sweetness of coconut that was also refreshing though the texture could have been better if it was smoother and less icy. The toasted coconut flakes added a crisp, fibrous mouthfeel to the hotcake, a complimentary and perfect pairing to the hotcake, where the resemblance to ondeh ondeh kicks in. Unfortunately, this would not be available anymore, with the cease of operations at @artistrycafesg 👋🏻 . . . #burpple #smitteneats #smittenchoice

Peanut butter & Jelly French Toast [$15] . And so... today marks the end of @artistrycafesg ‘s service and operations 👋🏻😭. Apart from the brunch, one thing I would miss most is this French Toast that surprisingly far exceeded my expectations, officially one of the best I have ever had (apart from @sarabethsofficial that I tried in Taiwan). Had initially wanted to try it last weekend, but it was already sold out by 12pm😭. Came back on a Friday afternoon (and reserved this just in case) which certainly did not disappoint, to which both my dining and I enjoyed it truly, polishing it off in no time, although she doesn’t even have a sweet tooth in the first place, unlike me. The brioche toast soaked in spiced custard was soft, fluffy with a pillowy texture that is filled with peanut butter and raspberry jam. A nutty, roasted flavour and aroma coupled with a subtle tartness from the fruity jam, it was clearly a winning combination that surprisingly didn’t turn out to be overwhelming or saccharine as expected! 💖 Served with a scoop of vanilla bean ice cream that was smooth, creamy with a fragrant milky flavour, the addition of the mixed berry coulis provided a tinge of acidity; a good counter balance to the other sweeter elements. Wouldn’t mind giving this a 2nd try... but unfortunately its extinction prohibited me from doing so 😭 . . . . #burpple #smitteneats #smittenchoice
