Prive Cafe @ Keppel Bay


Went to Prive with bf to celebrate my birthday Sunday evening..

Ordered Jasmine Queen tea since they were using TWG at $5.00

Raspberry banana smoothie $9, the worst combination to me, will never order this ever again... 

My plain jane burger with medium rare patty without bun at $21, superbly awesome, and I added $3 for their truffle mayo, which was superbly awesome with the fries and the patty, I "licked" the sauce dish clean...

Seafood marinara at $24, awesomely huge and fresh seafood, but still preferred the version we had at Ice edge cafe at simon road, bf reckons the same too...

My dessert galore, bf allowed me to indulge XD

Alcoholic blackforest cupcake $5.00, the cream on top was -.-, so ridiculously thick like 4cm thick? i sliced the cream in half and ate it, alcohol is really gao gao, cake was moist as well...

Fizzy Dark chocoate Ganache tart at $7.00, was awesome as well, not too sweet, and a surprising fizzle in every bite!

Gula melaka pandan chiffon cake at $6/slice... pretty mediocre, next time i'll just diy cheaper siah, take one slice and pour gula melaka sauce over, no doubt their version was pretty strong in pandan and gula melaka taste...

Overall awesome, will come back again to try their other food, and their grill side.. They are located at;
2 Keppel Bay Vista, Singapore City 098382
6776 0777

Wild Honey @ Scotts Sq

Look at the extensive range of brunch, how to choose sia? makes me want to eat everything just by looking at the descriptions!

Everything is just so nice can, even their desserts gave me a hard time choosing...

Opposite table settings at every table..

bf loved their cappucino $6, we even gave a compliment to their awesome staffs for the awesome coffee, we even overheard a table next door giving good feedback on their coffee.. and their staff told us that they actually used common man roasters' coffee bean for their coffee... and I was like no wonder it has a strong and rich aroma..

My usual earl grey $7 didn't ask which brand of tea leaves they used, but it was still awesome... on the menu they mentioned organic sri lanka earl grey though...

Every angle and inch of the restaurant is just so rustic and cosy... love the furnitures and the interiors!

My corsican $20 breakfast that day, wasn't used to the goat cheese taste in my omelette, but I still managed to finish them, love the tomatoes the most -.-

Bf's Scandinavian ($26) breakfast, both bf and I found the rosti really disappointing, they were fried a tad to crispy, and it was so dry, the rosti bits kept poking on the inner walls of ur mouths and kinda had a bad experienc chowing down the rosti... Salmon was juicy and tender, but had a fishy smell. asparagus and tomato was grilled awesomely...

And the highlights! Waited damn long just for them to prepare this dish for me! Freshly prepared awesome apple crumble pie served with good quality vanilla bean ice cream that cost $8.50... I'm telling you this is a must try! Superbly yummy and worth the money...

Though they are slightly pricey, but for what its worth and the awesomely good coffee and service provided, definitely will come back again... They have 2 outlets, but i highly suggest the Scott Sq one, as you can make reservations. They are located at; 

333A Orchard Rd, 238897
6235 3900

Assembly ground @ The Cathay L1



Brought bf to the assembly ground most recently to try a new cafe for dinner, and apparently when we went there they were experiencing a full-house, so we left our name and number, and managed to get seats within 20minutes, which was quite the awesome..

 
Rosehip Hibiscus tea that I ordered tasted surprisingly appetizing, first try with Hampstead brand of teas..

Awesome beef chilli fettucine, le bf and I both loved it.. Definitely a good dish to recommend..


Awesome crispy rosti though pretty petite, omelette was just the right portion.. Also the cheapest brunch dish on their menu...

The only cake that got me interested with their desserts, pretty awesome earl grey citrus pound...

Oh and they have this organic cane sugar bottle on every table, and it tasted great with my tea... I usually drink my tea sugarless, but with the rosehip tea that I ordered, with the sugar it tasted so much better..


Definitely will come back here again, I saw some reviews on their awesome iced drinks, like matcha, but i didn't order cause I wanted to save some tummy space for desserts...

They are located at Level 1 of Cathay...

XOXO,

W39 cafe @ west coast



Went to W39 last month, know about them through their colorful rainbow cakes on instagram... Made reservations so I got my group of 6 a cosy indoor seat..

Awesome homemade ice lemon tea ($4)..

Ice chocolate ($6.50) that my friend ordered..

Prawn & Ham Linguine ($18.50), awesome big and succulent prawns.. 2 friends & i liked it, but the other who preferred it without chilli got a really bland version of this, and hence didn't like it all,texture of noodles was al dente though...


Wagyu beef burger($20), one friend liked it... And one friend didn't as he didn't like due to the fact that the burger seems normal to him and he didn't like the type of fries they used, which on the contrary i found rlly nice?


And the dish i ordered, Baked caesar salad($10.50), first time having warm salad! So yummy i love it ttvm! Will come back just to eat this...

The supposed highlight of the cafe, Rainbow Cake (forget the price but less than $10) but the verdict? Better than bakery chef, but definitely won't order this next time at this cafe, not to my liking at all, taste just meh...

Apparently I could have taken a bus from my house area to get to this ulu place situated where all the bungalows are at the wesr coast area near the West Coast recreation club.. But instead dumb me walk from clementi mrt, and it took a good 15-20mins z.z

They are located at 39 Jalan Mas Puteh (Do google for the right directions) http://www.w39bistro.com/location
And call them for reservations : /9646 3572

To-gather cafe @ Bedok

Patronize a new cafe, but just for their desserts, as I was too full after lunch at bedok 85 hawker centre, just within 5 minutes walking distance, located at Blk 84 Bedok North Street 4... Such a pretty shop front! :)

Lotsa people on a saturday late afternoon, mostly families, and it was pretty 热闹 with lotsa kids..

Self-server water, cutleries, sauces corner..

The bartop table that I chose to seat at... pretty lightings pretty decors, family friendly with baby chairs provided..

Pretty wall decor and menu holder..

I ordered two of my most favourite kind of desserts, Matcha Lava Cake, and Early Gray Mousse cake... and get the best part? NETT PRICE CAFE!!! XD

Look at this awesome hot piece of circular cake...

Once I sliced it, it all flowed out, like liu sha bao... The matcha they use here wasn't like tsujiri's kind, kinda like those you get a bakery shops like phoon huat, the lower grade ones... I tasted condensed milk for the lava centre, so it was a tad too sweet since the cake exterior outside was sweet as well... they had a variation with ice-cream, but i'm glad I didn't order the ice-cream, otherwise sweet die me... the ice cream will probably match their chocolate lava cake better... nonetheless don't mind eating this again...


Earl grey mousse cake, those earl grey jelly in the middle layers were a first for me... Rather nice flavour and texture, but could use a stronger tea taste, as I'm a person that 注重 口味 和 味道 so every single essence in a dish has to be flavourful enough for me... Nonetheless, definitely will have this again next time...

That's about it for this post, when I come back here for their food, I'll post more about them again, otherwise you guys can google them and you'll find many other reviews...

XOXO,

CheryL
