A perfect treat when you are feeling a little peckish. I finally tried Old Hen Coffee Barโs Panna Cotta ($6) earlier this week and really enjoyed the contrasting textures. Made of 3 distinct layers, the chilled glass of smooth vanilla milk pudding, chocolate sauce and crunchy salted caramel popcorn was a delightful concoction. I also recommend to pair the cold brews or in my case their Valrhona Dark Cocoa along with every spoonful of creamy soft pudding and salty-sweet caramelized popcorns, to introduce a different element into the mix and who can leave without at least buying a bottle.
I did! Feeling a little heavy, I wanted to have a "light meal" for lunch, and a "light dessert" gave the perfect excuse for such an occasion. This is my all-time favourite dessert and this sure didn't disappoint... I happily finished it in no time. As usual, the cafe managed to make me smile again: )

Also finally tried thair Panna Cotta $6. Vanilla milk pudding, chocolate sauce and salted caramel popcorn. Simplicity at its best. ๐ฎ
After hearing of the pairing between the Panna Cotta and Flat White here from fellow tastemaker Xing Wei, I knew I had to order them the next time I came. And wow, for a non popcorn lover, I actually enjoyed the light crisp yet indulgently caramelized popcorn in the cup. The panna cotta layer was smooth and creamy, without having gelatin bits within, showing how thorough the pudding was mixed before chilling. And yes, pairing this with Flat White was also an instant win for me. Just imagine a mouthful of pudding, followed by a mouthful of fragrant aromatic coffee with beans from Nylon coffee roasters.... I wouldn't have it any other way! Old Hen is located along Rangoon Road. Nearest train station being Farrer Park MRT.
Fancy a glass of chilled Panna Cotta topped with chocolate sauce and gourmet popcorn? I did!

Their Panna Cotta had won many "likes" by Old Hen Cafe regulars but it was not my liking. There was a weird aftertaste (suspected from its gelatin they used). .

The idea of combining the different texture was good. However, they might want to change on the serving spoons. IT WAS JUST TOO SHORT!!!
Felt like the caramel and chocolate masked too much of the vanilla. Otherwise, a pleasant dessert.
