Baker & Cook @ Hillcrest Road
The brainchild of Global Baker Dean Brettschneider- New Zealand celebrity baker and cookbook author, Baker & Cook is one of the few much- anticipated names that have joined our local bakery scene. A bakery, food store and cafe concept that has been established in the residential enclave of Hillcrest, its unique location was hand-picked by...
De La Creme @ Siglap Drive
Nestled in the heart of Siglap and Frankel Estate, the location of De La Creme might appear to many as a bakery that mainly caters to the residents who reside around the corner. However, the feature of this humble- looking cafe in our local newspapers and magazines has brought many (especially those with a sweet...
Atrium Lounge and Senses Patisserie @ Marina Mandarin Hotel
Marina Mandarin Hotel’s Atrium Lounge and Senses Patisserie is a venue that I will suggest to anyone should he or she wish to seek for a relaxing place to settle down in town and have a cup of coffee (for dessert fans like me, a slice of cake). Relatively empty most of the time, it...
Twelve Cupcakes @ United Square
A recently established casual/ bakery cafe hidden in a tiny little corner of United Square, Twelve Cupcakes is one of the more familiar names heard nowadays whenever a foodie suggests a place for these delightful treats. Having passed by the similar branch at Millenia Walk on many occasions, I concurred with enthusiasm when my friend suggested that we pay a visit to the...
Brunetti @ Tanglin Mall
City dwellers have been given a reason to rejoice since Brunetti has arrived on our shores, and more notably, in town! Located at the all-so-quiet Tanglin Mall, the one-month old establishment has been attracting her very own fair share of locals and foreign expatriates, many who have been fans of the Melburnian franchise. Decked out in assorted mosaic tiles, the most captivating highlight of...

Antoinette @ Penhas Road
Antoinette has been on my to-go list ever since her opening just a couple of months ago. Being an avid fan of brunch and pastries, I have tried to make prior reservations on a few occasions (for Sunday brunch) but unfortunately, to no avail. Famously known as a local patisserie under the helm of Chef Pang,...
Laurent’s Cafe and Chocolate Bar @ Portsdown Road
Following a long and winding stretch and passing by various lodges, my friend, E and I arrived at Wessex Village Square to be greeted by none other than Laurent’s Cafe and Chocolate Bar. I had suggested the visit since it had been a long time since I have had Chocolate desserts (E is more of...

Bonheur Patisserie @ Duxton Road
This entry comprises of a compilation of two separate visits to Bonheur Patisserie, one on a Saturday and the other on a weekday (that I am unable to recall exactly when). The relatively new pastry shop along Duxton Road, seems to be an ideal spot for a relaxing session of afternoon tea after repeated visits to the...
Deli @ Goodwood Park Hotel
After our late brunch, Bryan and I decided to head over to Goodwood Park Hotel for some of their pastries since the popular hi-tea venue was just around the corner. Having recalled my rather memorable experience at their hi-tea buffet, I was definitely looking forward to a gratifying afternoon accompanied with fine pastries. When we arrived at their lounge, we were greeted by many...
Chihuly Lounge @ The Ritz Carlton
Introducing a new menu every season, Chihuly Lounge is one of the most renowned venues in town for a sesson of exquisite high tea. Situated within the lobby of the Ritz Carlton Hotel, the lounge is not only a much frequented area for the hotel guests, it is also a popular venue for business meetings, a gratifying afternoon...
K ki Sweets @ Ann Siang Hill
Relatively easy to miss the pastry shop secluded in a little corner of Ann Siang Hill, I have heard about many raving reviews about the fine pastries that this little hidden gem has to offer. I have heard from various rumours that due to limited seating capacity, it is quite a supreme task to dine-in during...
