[CLOSED] Antoinette (Penhas Road)

I love chocolate and hazelnut! I am a sucker for anything chocolate, hazelnut and that mixture of cake and crunchy layer of praline/feuilletine/biscuit.

Le Royale was dense and moist. I think it’s not too sweet because it contains 64% dark chocolate mousse. Hence, it’s suitably sweet. There’s supposedly dark rum in it but I can’t exactly taste it.

I like it that it’s soft, rich and very chocolatey. And I really love the layers of contrast between the mousse, genoise and feuilletine! However, I think it would be better if it’s slightly moister.

Gonna miss their cake so much!

This dainty dessert consists of an inner layer of cassis strawberry jelly and strawberry creameux, lying on a layer of finger sponge and nestled within a white chocolate violet flower mousse.

It tastes pretty light with a slight tinge of sourness. A pity that the almond crumble was too soft hence lacking the crunchy texture.

I am a sucker for dessert, especially dessert that’s not only pleasing to the palate, but also a feast for the eyes. @antoinette_sg is like a dessert heaven. It’s sad to hear that they are ceasing operations soon.

Singaporean Chef Pang Kok Keong of @antoinette_sg and @hakkapang has an assortment of Hakka specialties for takeaway and delivery now. This Thunder Tea Rice or 擂茶饭 included.

I have always been a fan of this healthy Hakka dish so it’s lovely to try Chef Pang’s version which features brown rice topped with more than just the usual. He also throws on unconventional ingredients such as crisp wing beans and soft-cooked kidney beans - the latter adds a hint of sweetness to the dish which works nicely.

The fresh herb paste which is more flavourful then others I’ve had, is packed separately so you just have to pour in hot water before eating.
At $7 per portion, I think this makes for a healthy, tasty and value-for-money meal. Ideal to send as a #mytreatsg to family or friends too.

To order this (minimum order is 5 portions), or his other delicacies like Traditional Abacus Seeds (this is very good as well!), Hakka Mee Tai Mak, Leek Kueh, Yam Cake and Muah Chee, please Whatsapp: 9021 7507.

Gotten 3 at one go... All are super pretty ones, cost wise is above $10 each... Good service, nice place, taste wise we prefer the cutie cloud... New on their menu...

The dish is served with savoury cabbage braised in chicken stock, pomme puree, and an umami-laden mustard sauce made from Dijon and Pommery mustard for a hint of spice. .

Quite enjoyed their rendition of the classical strawberry shortcake, especially the cream layer was so light flavourful and not cloying! But for $80 a cake, thank goodness this was free 😂😌
