Eighteen Chefs @AMKHub

Fish & Bird Platter

Fish & Bird Platter

A rather popular eatery located on the top floor of AMKHub, the queue was usually pretty long!

Probably because of the reasonable pricing with only GST and no additional service charge (plus student discounts), and relatively good food, thus making this place a popular choice for students! This place is also halal-certified 🙂

It’s a rather fuss-free casual place. Basically, you fill up the order chit based on whatever you fancy from the menu, go queue to order and pay up, go get cutlery and free warm or cold water while waiting for the food to be served!

Rainbow Cottage Cafe @AMK

Flat White with no art

Flat White with no art

We were very excited to hear of a relatively new cafe opened in Ang Mo Kio, yeah! So today, we especially made reservations for dinner, after reading about the crowds in some reviews.

There were a grand total of 2 other people when we arrived :p But it was a weekday night, so perhaps that was the reason. It was good for us anyway, since we preferred a more quiet environment.

Deco was simple, but they have a small little children’s playground using the small slanted area beneath the staircase, which is complete with small kitchen so small kids can play act-kitchen while the adults indulge in the real food from the real kitchen. 🙂

The Clueless Goat @Goldhill Centre

We are not clueless!

We are not clueless!

We had thought about coming here for quite a while (it opened in Feb 2015), but somehow, we were always distracted by other food options in the area, and also a bit apprehensive if a cafe who calls itself clueless, has any clue about making good food and drinks? But here we were today!

This is a simple setup much like other cafes, with simple tables and chairs, ordering and payment at the counter, eat and go type of cafe. The interior is brightly lit and roomy enough to not give a ‘pressurizing’ feel. Overall a very homely feel and we enjoyed the ambience very much.

Our first thoughts were that the prices were very reasonable in this location, and there was no GST or service charge. Small wonder that it was fully packed!

+39 Gelato Bar @Circular Road

Posted on 10 April 2015 by lendeliz

We could not find any coffee place around the area and were almost going to call it a day when we spotted this gelato place… Woohoo! They do serve coffee 🙂 So we decided on a Waffle with Hazelnut and Pistachio ($13+), while hubby got himself an Expresso Deluxe ($4.50+)… Latte was not available because the milk steamer was down.

Woo! This has gotta be the crispiest and most aromatic waffles we ever had, inside out! It was abit overdone though, as the waffle was slightly bitter as it was burnt. However, the gelato made up for it! Super creamy and smooth, we totally loved it! The hazelnut one was sweeter but absolutely nutty, while the pistachio one was less intense in flavour.

The expresso came with cold milk, unfortunately… and came rather late too, as they had forgotten the order. Still, it was not too shabby a drink, strong but not acidic.

Overall, a pretty enjoyable after-dinner indulgence 🙂

Sunday Folks @Holland Village

Posted on 4 April 2015 by lendeliz

It was dessert time! We decided to try coming to Sunday Folks again, after a few failed attempts due to the super long queue. Despite being a Saturday, we managed to get seats within 5 minutes, yeah!!

Waffle with Ice Cream

We quickly decided on a Regular-sized Waffle, topped with Ice Cream (sea salt with gula melaka) ($11.80), and a Flat White ($5).

The coffee is quite acidic, but went well with the strong aromatic flavour. The soft serve ice cream was quite yummy! And strangely, it reminded me of this long chewy candy that mummy used to buy when we were young. The waffle was crispy with a soft interior, and hubby was very pleased with it.

Overall, a nice place for ice cream and waffles! 🙂 Now we are inspired to go to Phoon Huat next door to buy some ingredients to make our own waffles at home 🙂

[shifted] Les Pâtisseries Cafe @Toa Payoh

Posted on 10 February 2015 by lendeliz

Note: Les Pâtisseries has ceased operations at Toa Payoh and shifted to Upper Thomson.

Coffee and Tea

Coffee and Tea

It was dessert time! The Sugar app pointed us to this cafe, and I managed to get a pot of Contessa Grey Gryphon Tea for $1 (usual price $5.50) :p Being a bakery cafe, we decided to try the Torte Au Citron ($6 nett) and a Waffles with Summer Berries ($8.50). As usual, hubby had a hot Cafe Latte ($4.50).

Hubby felt that his latte was smooth and aromatic, with rather tame flavour… He liked that it was not too acidic.

The Contessa Grey was surprisingly light for a black tea, and had a slightly sweet citrus taste. The taste of eucalyptus was stronger than bergamot, but overall it was a lovely blend 🙂

Penny University @East Coast

Simple pleasures

Simple pleasures

I was in the east to visit a colleague, and so hubby decided to come over to the east for dinner 🙂 While I was having a blast at Ms L’s place, hubby endured a 1.5 hours bus ride 😮

Luckily, there was a cafe nearby, so we took a quick walk over to Penny University!

This place was rather popular when the cafe culture started in Singapore a while ago, but we never got around to come here. Simply because it’s in the East and we are very North people. Haha…

A very simple place with smooth lighting, and soft music. One thing good here is that there are newspapers and magazines lying around which also means that they expect you to nua here… 🙂

Regroup x Scoop Therapy @Kim Keat

Beautiful latte art

We were in the area again and wondering what’s new for dinner. And as usual, I noticed some gorgeous waffles photos on Instagram, and checked that a new cafe has just opened along Kim Keat Road, near to Balestier-Whampoa area. This is just at the end of the road from Wheeler’s Yard!

Nestled within Hanson Court (a block of revamped studio apartments), Regroup x Scoop Therapy is a duel Cafe & Ice Cream Bar concept, which is also the 3rd branch from the very popular Group Therapy Coffee. The entire cafe is behind a glass wall and the glassed space welcomes much natural sunlight and the whimsical décor within complements the colourfulness of their homemade ice cream. There are a couple of alfresco seats but I seriously doubt anyone would want to sit so near the road.

Strangers’ Reunion @Duxton

Cafe Latte, as usual

Cafe Latte, as usual

Wifey was in town for meeting so we decided to look around SGH for dinner!

Met up with her at SGH and walked out towards Neil Road. Whip out my iPhone and Strangers’ Reunion jumped right out of FourSquare. This is a cafe which was opened quite a while ago when the cafe crave started in Singapore. Have seen many pictures, especially of their buttermilk waffles, all over Instagram but have yet to try. Since this was a quiet night, we could find seats and so we decided to have our dinner here!

The deco was quite a simple, industrial look, with exposed pipes and trunking. Quite a number of tables and seats around, and if you are only here for waffles, they have opened another outlet called Waffle Slayer just next door!

[closed] Hang Out Cafe @AMK

Posted on 15 October 2014 by weiming

Note: Hang Out Cafe has ceased operations at this location, and relocated to NAFA.

Bombastic Egg

Bombastic Egg

You may have heard that the Burpz Cafe that used to be near our house has changed management and renamed themselves to Hang Out Cafe. They have been quite on the ball and changing/adding menu items regularly. So on this quiet night when I do not know where or what to have dinner, I just strolled myself to here and decided to park here and nua…

I saw the board displaying the Savoury Waffle and wanted to try but it was only available at breakfast and tea time. However the owner was quite flexible and said that the kitchen would be able to prepare for me, if I wanted to try it. So I ordered that (not knowing exactly what is the savoury part) and ordered the Bombastic Egg ($8) as well.
