YAY DESSERTS

I’m not usually a fan of matcha but I really did enjoy this one! The matcha flavour wasn’t too intense, prominent but more on the lighter side, with the thin layer of azuki beans coming through with a subtle nutty taste.

I prefer this matcha to the plain one, the bitter undertones and the red beans bring more depth to it. But, like the plain one, the crepe layers themselves are not the thinnest nor do they have the smoothest texture, but for a packaged crepe cake I really can’t complain!

The beancurd filling is silky smooth, with the slightest tinge of sweetness! I can’t imagine someone with a sweet tooth liking this though, as it is rather light, almost erring on the side of being bland. But I personally really enjoyed the soft and light beancurd!

However, I felt that the crust didn’t balance the light beancurd well. They definitely err on the thicker side, but are also fairly inconsistent in thickness. 🥴 The crust I had on the first day was almost as thick as the filling, and was so hard!! The tart I had the next day faired much better though, with a better filling to tart ratio, and it was a lot softer!

They forgot to give me the soybean powder ): Anyway the matcha soft serve is thick and creamy with a moderate level of bitterness, not a very intense matcha flavour. The red bean was a perfect complement to the matcha soft serve, and the white mochi was super chewy. I would advise against this option with the matcha jelly, as texture was somewhat off-putting and tasted bland. I’d imagine the one with warabi mochi to be a better choice!

𝐂𝐫𝐢𝐧𝐤𝐥𝐞 𝐑𝐲𝐞 𝐂𝐡𝐨𝐜𝐨𝐥𝐚𝐭𝐞 𝐂𝐨𝐨𝐤𝐢𝐞 ($𝟑)
(I don’t know the exact name)
Such a perfect cookie! It has a brownie consistency, super fudgy and so chewy, with tiny pockets of melted chocolate 🤤 The cookie had a really good bite to it, with a slightly crisp top. Divineee

Went around 4pm and they were sold out of sourdough, but still had a few slices of cake and their coffee left! It’s a nice and quaint outdoor location, really wanna come back with more people to sit down for some cake and coffee, or a meal ahh 🥺

This 𝐑𝐞𝐚𝐥 𝐖𝐡𝐢𝐭𝐞 𝐏𝐞𝐚𝐜𝐡 𝐂𝐚𝐤𝐞 ($6.80) kinda tasted like one of those Japanese peach jellies, but in a cake form!

A custard cream, yogurt mousse and peach mixture sits atop a light and airy madeleine base. The cake layer was suitably thick, helping to balance the creamy mousse, cut through by the added tang of the layer of raspberry jam.

However, there was a stark artificial sweetness about it, but you do taste the natural flavours of the peach, and it still somehow doesn’t get too cloying. Personally, I don’t like how sweet it is, but it might be more enjoyable for one with a sweet tooth!

These are what you’d expect from a good croissant — buttery, flakey and delicious, with the added bonus of sweet filling.
My favourite was definitely the 𝐑𝐚𝐬𝐩𝐛𝐞𝐫𝐫𝐲 𝐂𝐢𝐧𝐧𝐚𝐦𝐨𝐧 𝐂𝐫𝐨𝐢𝐬𝐬𝐚𝐧𝐭; the same delicious flaky pastry encasing a vibrant, tart and barely sweet raspberry filling. The 𝐏𝐢𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐜𝐡𝐢𝐨 version was also delicious, but sadly doesn’t taste much like pistachio. I really enjoyed it but I wish it had a stronger nutty flavour.
Although I’m not a fan of lemon, the 𝐋𝐞𝐦𝐨𝐧 𝐂𝐫𝐨𝐢𝐬𝐬𝐚𝐧𝐭 was surprisingly delightful, and not overwhelming in lemon flavour.

They are pretty small croissants at $8 for 2, but I think they’re interesting, and tasty enough to be worth a try!

Hands down my favourite place for claypot rice! We got the large claypot ($36) intended for 5-6 persons, filled with generous amounts of tender chicken chunks, pork belly, lup cheong, salted fish and vegetables.
The ingredients were tossed in the most delicious and fragrant dark sauce, with the overall sweetness matched by a deep smokiness from being cooked over charcoal. We broke up and mixed in the layer of burnt rice at the bottom, adding a nice crispy touch.

The portion was definitely more than enough for the 5 of us, as we ordered sides too. The sides do get quite pricey, but my recommendation would be the Prawn Roll ($11.80), it was really to die for! I was blown away by the thin and crispy outer encasing the juicy meat filling. The sauce from the Tofu with Crab Meat ($18.80) was also a really great addition to the rice.

I don’t even like sar poh fan that much but I love this place! If you’re going, definitely preorder your claypot rice to save you the 30min+ waiting time!

The 𝐩𝐢𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐜𝐡𝐢𝐨 𝐠𝐚𝐧𝐚𝐜𝐡𝐞 was hands down my favourite, the smooth and nutty filling was unmatched in flavour. The 𝐜𝐫𝐞𝐦𝐞 𝐛𝐫𝐮𝐥𝐞𝐞 came in a close second, the creamy custard balanced out by the crunchy charred top.

I know a lot of people love the 𝐏𝐁&𝐉, but it was alright, the jam was really too sweet and tasted quite artificial. But PB&J is never a bad combo 🤷🏻‍♀️. The 𝐜𝐡𝐨𝐜𝐨𝐥𝐚𝐭𝐞 𝐫𝐨𝐚𝐬𝐭𝐞𝐝 𝐡𝐚𝐳𝐞𝐥𝐧𝐮𝐭 was decadent and rich, tasted like a better nutella haha. The 𝐯𝐚𝐧𝐢𝐥𝐥𝐚 𝐠𝐥𝐚𝐳𝐞𝐝 was nice, you can definitely get a good feel of the quality of their dough on this one.

Sadly, the 𝐭𝐚𝐫𝐨 𝐜𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐦 was a miss. I love taro, and the filling by itself tasted really good quality. But the combination with the dough just didn’t work for me.

The dough itself is quality! Perfectly soft and definitely on the chewier side, which I love. They’re supposedly baked as well, glad that they weren’t too oily! Also, I think they could do without the coating sugar on top tbh but they’re still really well balanced!

𝐑𝐲𝐞 𝐂𝐡𝐨𝐜𝐨𝐥𝐚𝐭𝐞 𝐏𝐫𝐮𝐧𝐞 𝐓𝐞𝐚 𝐂𝐚𝐤𝐞 ($𝟓.𝟓𝟎) - 𝟗.𝟓/𝟏𝟎
The perfect decadent and indulgent chocolate cake. The huge sticky chunks of prune mixed into the batter really brought out and elevated the chocolate. Surprisingly, even though the cake was so fudgy and thick, it didn’t feel too jelak. It also tastes like they used different kinds of quality cocoa in this, that produced that depth in flavour.

𝐑𝐲𝐞 𝐇𝐚𝐳𝐞𝐧𝐮𝐭 𝐀𝐥𝐦𝐨𝐧𝐝 𝐁𝐫𝐨𝐰𝐧𝐢𝐞 ($𝟓.𝟓𝟎) - 𝟏𝟎/𝟏𝟎
Everyone recommended the brownie and it’s definitely worth the rave!! The texture of this was really so amazingly and skilfully done. There was a bite to it, with something I can only describe as layers, of chocolate that melded together as you bit into it. The whole hazelnuts and almonds contrasted the gooey pockets of chocolate, accompanied by a pleasant element of flakey salt.
The only thing is that the almonds lost their crunch a little, but that’s just me being picky. This was definitely a favourite

𝐒𝐩𝐞𝐥𝐭 𝐋𝐞𝐦𝐨𝐧 𝐒𝐞𝐬𝐚𝐦𝐞 𝐓𝐞𝐚 𝐂𝐚𝐤𝐞 ($𝟓.𝟓𝟎) - 𝟗.𝟓/𝟏𝟎
Looks like a simple, unassuming tea cake, but of course this as well was amazing. This was so delicious, the lemon flavour with the encompassed in a light, moist and buttery cake, accompanied by the contrast of the small sesame seeds.

This 𝐒𝐚𝐤𝐮𝐫𝐚 𝐂𝐡𝐨𝐜𝐨𝐥𝐚𝐭𝐞 𝐓𝐚𝐢𝐲𝐚𝐤𝐢 ($𝟐.𝟕𝟎) is a flavour on limited offer, with a cherry (i think) & chocolate filling!

As someone who loved mochi, the texture definitely hit the spot for it was SOOO incredibly chewy 🥰 I was lucky to get it fresh, so it was still warm, with a delightful slightly crisp outer surface. I also loved that the filling was substantial and evenly dispersed LOL. (Tbh it’s my greatest pet peeve when it’s uneven and you can’t get filling in every bite)

𝐑𝐞𝐝 𝐕𝐞𝐥𝐯𝐞𝐭 𝐋𝐚𝐯𝐚 𝐂𝐨𝐨𝐤𝐢𝐞, that held a lemon curd lava. I hate lemon things but this was delish 👌. Also, I have no idea what the 𝐒𝐞𝐜𝐫𝐞𝐭 𝐆𝐚𝐫𝐝𝐞𝐧 𝐢𝐜𝐞 𝐜𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐦 is made of, but it had light floral and tea notes and tasted somewhat reminiscent of rose syrup? It was an interesting aromatic flavour, and I really liked it!

The cookie and lava flavours really complement each other so well!! It’s $8.50 for one, but it’s a little small to share honestly because it lasted maybe 3 mins 😳

The 𝐎𝐧𝐝𝐞𝐡 𝐎𝐧𝐝𝐞𝐡 𝐋𝐚𝐯𝐚 𝐂𝐨𝐨𝐤𝐢𝐞 was SO YUMS 😩. The top of the cookie had a beautiful crisp edge that contrasted the soft, gooey interior and the 𝐁𝐚𝐧𝐨𝐟𝐟𝐞𝐞 𝐢𝐜𝐞 𝐜𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐦. The desiccated coconut and cornflakes were a nice touch of texture, with a gula melaka filling that melded everything together both flavour-wise and texturally.
