Cafe Hopping Series: Old Hen Coffee Bar @Rangoon Road

Concentration

Our next stop was a 20-minute walk away, which was good because at least we got to digest some of the food in our tummies 🙂

We walked along the small lanes, spent some time taking pictures with JY’s Polaroid camera… It was very hard work and I was so afraid of dropping the camera 😮 stressed! But fun! Haha! She took a really nice picture of us 🙂

Hubby was also pretty good at it, and of course, I was the half-past-six one, concentrating very hard on trying to focus without even thinking about the background, argh! I wasted film 😦 but JY was very encouraging lah… Hahaha!

Cafe Hopping series: Rouse @Dunlop Street

Since we were already nearby at the Flee Away Cafe, we decided to drop by Rouse too! We couldn’t get a proper table, so ended up at the long table by the mirror wall. It was initially kind of strange to be staring at oneself so up close and personal, but very soon we were having a lot of fun taking selfies!!

Let's Flee Away!

Bright and cheery!

Bright and cheery!

Today we were going cafe hopping with Ms JY!

First stop was to Flee Away Cafe for brunch/lunch. Initially we were worried that it might be crowded, but our worries were unfounded – only another table was occupied when we arrived around 12:45pm.

We were one-third through the Tiong Bahru Heritage Trail (that’s another entry altogether!) and chanced upon this cafe! Enticed by the word “homemade waffles”, we decided to stop here for a short break 🙂

Quote from the menu

We had initially intended to check out The Coffee Daily… But we walked past Sun Ray Cafe first and the very friendly host, plus the phrase “We roast our coffee” made us pause our steps and give its neighbour a skip 😛

This cafe occupies 2 shop houses and one shop house is specially catered for diners with pets! We saw a couple of diners came in with their dogs and both were happily having their meals together!

[closed] CRAFT Bakery & Cafe @Holland Village

Posted on 18 July 2014 by lendeliz

Note: CRAFT Bakery & Cafe has ceased operations at this location.

Got to have kopi...

Got to have kopi…

After a less-than-filling dinner at Cucina, we decided to look for a cafe to nibble more food…

We found the last 2-seater available indoors at CRAFT Bakery & Cafe, and we still couldn’t quite figure out where Mu Palour was, so we decided to stay here instead.

The Craft was sold out 😦 Hubby decided on the Har Cheong Kai burger while I settled for a original Lava Cake. Ok… I did say nibble right? Hubby is not a fan of sweet desserts, so he had to order something savoury right 😛

Actually, I’m also not super huge on sweet desserts, but hey! Lava Cake is supposed to be good here…

Carpenter and Cook Jr @Upper Thomson

Same frontage

Same frontage

Having only just a coffee at Whale & Cloud is definitely not enough, so we venture on to find breakfast!

Carpenter and Cook (in Lorong Kilat) opened a new takeaway outlet in Jasmine Road and they named it Carpenter and Cook Jr. The website says no seating here, but there are still some counter seats inside and a couple of alfresco chairs if you want to just laze around and watch the world pass-by…

Besides selling freshly home-made baked goods and confectionery, they also sell curated vintage furniture, home decor, as well as provide dessert tables, styling services, vintage props and decor for weddings, parties, photo-shoots and more!

This interesting place was setup by 3 friends, a Carpenter (Phoebe who picks out beautiful vintage pieces), a Cook (Shenn who trained at the prestigious Cordon Bleu in London) and a And (Eunice who likes to dabble in a bit of everything). 🙂

Whale & Cloud @Rochor

A hidden passageway?

A hidden passageway?

Many will seek but not all shall find

That’s written on their Instagram profile page.

And their exact address is 48¾ Niven Road (kind of reminds you of the famous Platform Nine and Three Quarters at King’s Cross Station in London featured in a very long movie series). 🙂

This is a highly secretive cafe hideout with so much interesting stuff about it, that was introduced to us by G’s friend.

Maybe secretive is not the word, because I don’t believe they intended to be secretive. It’s only that the location is kind of obscure and you need patience to find it (maybe not now, since there has been tons of post of exact directions, complete with picture guide, to lead you to the place). 🙂

There’s more to this place than meets the eyes…

Burpz Cafe & Bakery @AMK

Newly opened!

Nice deco!

Nice deco!

We chanced upon the website while surfing for neighborhood cafés and were pleasantly surprised by this new establishment that had opened only on May this year!

So while we were waiting for our blueberry cheesecake pie to cool down in the fridge, we brought our niece there for an early dinner!

The cafe was small but had both indoor and outdoor seating. Plenty of new magazines available for browsing and free wifi was available (get password from the staff), so we ended up spending a few hours here 🙂

GRUB @Bishan Park 1

After a slow walk...

After a slow walk…

We were up early and took a slow walk (part of our new exercise regime) to Bishan Park!

It was a leisurely 40-min walk and at the end of it, we decided to go to GRUB (again!!) for breakfast today!

As we arrived shortly after it was opened for the day, we didn’t have to queue (or use the unique queue system which they shared with Wild Honey), yeah!
