Swedish Apple Pancake topped with caramelised apples, Bavarian cream and cinnamon cider glaze from Clinton Street Baking Company. The enormously filling buttery, fluffy pancakes, which stored a 8.15am MRT train passenger-esque steaming rage deep within, provided eggy French toast comfort whilst elsewhere the Bavarian cream was a sugary vanilla ice…
A Compter Du Printemps from Mad About Sucre – strawberry cream, lemon mousse, French champagne, raspberry, almond sponge cake, croustillant. The posh champagne jelly was inappropriately inebriated to such a degree that it probably contravened something in the Liquor Control Act, whilst elsewhere the glacial and understated strawberry cream struck…
Milk cake, passionfruit sorbet and toasted almonds from Bochinche. Tastes exactly as its name describes – a winsome, orgiastic union of milk and cake, with the passionfruit sorbet bringing some tartiness to the party. 4/5 This was a hosted meal, courtesy of Bochinche. Bochinche 22 Martin Road #02-01 Singapore 239058
Llaomango Sanum from Llaollao (Marina Bay Sands). Essentially the usual llaollao yogurt with an added fragrant tropical aftertaste, whilst elsewhere the sour mango chunks had an unripe manly crunchiness. 3.9/5 The llaomango flavour is only available at the Marina Bay Sands outlet from 1 – 20 February 2016. Llaollao (Marina…
You know it’s the season of raw fish flinging, annoyingly grating chingchonglinglong soundtracks and awkward questions from nosey aunties about why you’re still a Singleton/your lack of procreative products when festive goodies like these Lunar New Year-themed macarons from Bonheur Patisserie start popping up. Bonheur Patisserie (Raffles City) 252 North…
Apgujeong Bingsoo from Patbingsoo, the Korean shaved ice dessert concept within Seorae – cheese, cheese sauce, cheesecake, cheese wafer, vanilla ice cream. The deep yellow cheese strands did not hide their desire for InstaMouse fame and the orange crumbs were essentially reincarnations of everybody’s favourite childhood Super Ring snack, but…
Handmade Pineapple Tarts from TCC – The Connoisseur Concerto. Nope, these aren’t monkeys with evolutionarily shifted ears but are actually Pros-Bear-Rity Bears! Taste-wise the bears probably have a disciplinarian momma as they were gentle in butteriness and fairly restrained in sweetness. These tarts are available at all TCC outlets islandwide.
Horffles from Les Patisseries – 2 scoops of vanilla ice cream, Horlicks powder, Horlicks sauce, toasted candied almond, fresh berries. Whilst the slightly sour waffle had a gentle crisp and the nuts certainly were welcome guests, the late-blooming vanilla ice cream only revealed its tuition teacher-encouraged potential late in the…
Earl Grey Caramel Waffle from Atlas Coffeehouse – earl grey caramel sauce, vanilla ice cream. The dusky earl grey beauty vanishes into the night as mysteriously as she appeared, whilst elsewhere the waffle maintains a light crisp on the outside while having a buttery 3-ply softness on the inside. 4/5…
