VFM Desserts
CHICHA San Chen
After our dinner, we were really craving for something sweet and refreshing. Knowing that there's a new boba store around the corner, we decided to give it a try - good choice! However, it can be a little pricey (since it boasts a 3-star Michelin star equivalent award).
We ordered the 25% sugar Mango Osmanthus Oolong tea with coconut jelly ($5.20) and the Fresh M with Brown Sugar Bubble ($5). the mango osmanthus tea was rich, refreshing and blends well with the mango flavour. The freshly brewed tea was strong and fragrant, with a pleasant aftertaste lingering around refreshingly.
The brown sugar milk tea was sweet and creamy but might have been too sweet for my personal liking. However the pearls were chewy and the tea had a caramelized taste (if you have a sweet tooth, you'd like this)!
Overall, the ambience of the store was really good but a pity since due to the COVID19 we weren't able to wait in store and witness the making of our teas. The glass windows were a little too dusty and was immediately noticeable but their signature teapresso did impressively catch our eyes though!
Overall, we felt that it was a little overpriced. Although our drinks tasted great, the price wouldn't be something we'd go back for soon! Maybe occasionally, but definitely not a routine.
We'd give it a rating of 8/10 for taste but 6/10 for VFM.

Monster Curry - Jurong Point
The first thing people come here for is their famously unique Japanese curry dishes. but their overly delicious dessert - honey toast is so unknown that its such a shame. we came here specially for its dessert - we skipped the curry part hahaha. we waited quite some time for our order to arrive but I guess its justifiable given that it was the peak hour. I've tried this before some time ago and decided to bring some of my friends along.
we ordered the tangy mango honey toast and caramel with mashed mellow honey toast. well well well, it surely did not disappoint! the honey toast was fluffy, coated with a layer of butter (we think) which makes it fluffy yet soft. topped with ice cream and real mangoes, we all agreed that the honey toast was sufficient as a dish on its own. the ice cream was vanilla flavored, which obviously perfectly complemented the honey toast.
even though it was the peak hour, the restaurant setting and ambience nonetheless made it enjoyable to dine in with, alongside the friendly staff.
we give it a rating of 8/10 for taste but probably 6/10 for its vfm at $12.90 on average per toast.
