Chewy Junior


It's only Tuesday night, still got 3 more days to Fri...
Popped by Chewy Junior & decided to get some sweet treat for myself ^^
the array of flavors is tempting me but you know how fickle minded I am..
So i decided to get the mini box that is already pre-packed (Y)
-----
But sadly there isn't any blueberry cheese or Choc Almond or sort
Heh but stilll it's only $7.90 for a mini box of  9 Chewy Junior :D
Just look at the frosting on top!! So prettaye!
-----
 
& this is how we should eat them~
from the hole LOL


Bear with me, I love to take many shots of delish food ^.^/
It's a Chewy Mini Gift Set! But got it for myself & my fam to share!

It'll definitely be better if they have mini assorted puffs for me to pick.
Especially small puffs for breakfast (:
We get to eat & try more variety without feeling too fat, am I right girls?!
-----
Overall a worthwhile buy but definitely a plus for choc lover~!

Canelé


You know how some days you are like I'm hungry & I just want to eat.
Those days I'll be too lazy to find a cafe to hang around, I mean if you are an avid cafe-hopper you probably know how important  Google Maps or Gothere.sg are when finding those places, right?
so we decided to hop over to Canelé!
-----
I ordered French Eggs Benedict  (about $10)

Hehehehe can you spot the heart shapped tomatoe? ;D yumnm
-----
Look so yummy! It's amazing how eggs can make you feel so full!
I love the tomato & side of salad gobbled it down within min
I think I was too hungry~
It's a simple and satisfying Eggs Bene dinner! ^.^
-----

My sissy ordered Signature Chicken Caesar. 

But of course, here's a close up shot of the salad.
My sis doesn't like the fact that the dressing was a little too much and it taste a little like too much mayo
You know how some salad places allows you to drizzle the sauce yourself?
So at least we can control the amount we want, some like it light, like my sis.
So she did not really enjoy this :/
-----
I'm not particularly a fan of Caesar salad so I only took a mouth.Personally I felt there should be a few more mix greens inside beside the romaine lettuce & maybe have some nuts topped as well?
-----


-----
& Of course, this is one of my favorite macaroons around!!
 How could I resist you colorful thing that makes me so harppyyy <3

----------

Almost forgot the service was pretty ok when we dine in~
(But I've had experience once when I was deciding to buy just the macaroons nearing 9+pm while I was still looking at the display, the staff actually off the displayed panel light, & I'm like forget it not gonna buy... I have an issue with service these days ughh ohwell)
hmm place was rather quiet definitely a place you can chill & have a good chat! (:

MU PALOUR

MU. PALOUR

Happen to pop by Holland V so decided to go up for some tea!
I love how it looked, mono color decor on the outside~
(took the interior but it was kinda blur,opps so visit for yourself!)





So here's what we ordered!
-----
1. Raspberry Tart ($8)
2. Carrot Cake ($6)

1. Raspberry Tart

A pretty velvet red triangular shaped  tart"cake" caught my eyes






The cross-section of the Raspberry Tart!
Bascially it's a chocolate mouse cake, tucked in between with a layer of raspberry compote and a layer of rich choc nearer the bottom part of the tart/cake.
Quite a unique taste, for the adventure seeker!
I'll suggest this with some hot tea to accompany. as it can be a little too sweet for me after awhile
-----

Next up, the Carrot Cake!


A classic cake that we would usually order
It's moist and good with the cinnamon taste,
but just a bite & you know how it's too sweet.
Quite a disappointment, I mean how can carrot cake fail us :(
I suppose the cream cheese was a little too sweet & we were not serve any water,
so we had to scrap it away....& eat the parts without it

-----
So let me share my experience:
When we stepped in, no one entertained us, we even had to take the menu from a nearby table.
It's our first time here, so we did not have any idea whether we are suppose to find a seat first or to wait for the staff to usher us. So we waited, but we eventually found a seat and got the menu from the nearby table
It was only after we seated down a while that a staff approached us to inform us to order from the counter....
I felt rather shortchanged I mean we did pay for service charge right?
-----

That aside, I would say located at the 2nd floor is definitely a happier pace to be.
If you seat beside the window seat, it's pretty enjoyable! ^.^
You get to overview the little streets and a good place for people watching to spend the lazy afternoon away.. 
It was raining heavily the day I went, but I liked how I get to feel the sky a little nearer to me (:
Didn't get to try any of the drink though.

-----
Overall, it was not a place that I will visit any time soon,
No doubt the ambiance is a plus , but personally felt that they lacked the service a little.
Just a opinion, but still a place you can hang out with maybe for buunch?
Saw some of the neighboring platters of fries & burger look quite delish to me!
-----
hahahahahahaha

The AUDACIOUS CAKERY

THE AUDACIOUS CAKERY

It's Saturday once again, thinking of having some muffins and cake in the neighborhood?
Introducing you to a newly opened cafe in September 2013!
A small cozy cafe tucked in the residential area of Everton Park
Came with J to have some "endorphins" hehehehe!
----------
 A simple layout & I think that's the boss over there? are you? 

-----
Came here at about 6pm-ish! (that explains why my picture was a little dark, oops)
Quite a few cakes were already sold out by then,
:( not complaining  but here is what we ordered! 
-----
1. Matcha Cupcake ($3.50)
2. Monet ($9.80)



----------

Awwww don't you just fall for this cute Matcha Cupcake?!
The little puffy cream on top was a kinda adorable ;) (well to me at least,hehe)
-----
Matcha Fan out there! This is THE BOMB!
It's a really rich matcha-ish cupcake definitely worth the price!
*Gulps* as I am typing this right now...
But I think it will taste even better if it's chilled ~.~

----------

Okay so Monet is a alcoholic cake.
With a layer of Orange mousse with champagne, it has also got a layer of raspberry jam kinda filling stuffed in between. Topped with red currants! 
I love how cute the cake looked, sort of like a mini version of a "whole cake" ;D
Look how small it is compared to a regular cupcake, just slightly taller!
-----
I would say this is a mixture of sour & sweet flavour.
the mini red currants that resemble "cherries"on top gives it a sour taste and the raspberry gives it a sweet aftertaste, i suppose the zest of the orange on top (mousse) gives it some texture, oh yes the outer "crust" of the cake was crispy too!
this sounds too complicating, Try it for yourself if you are looking for something new!
----------
the array of cupcakes! so gonna try em' all!
(i didn't see any tarts though, might have been sold out?)


----------
carefully packed cupcake to go ^^



----------
So what's in the bag?
3. Raspberry Devil's Cupcake ($3.50)
-----
it taste a little similar to red velvet kinda cupcake besides the cream which I assume has some raspberry taste to it.
 Chilled in the fridge for a day & it's not too sweet and rather yummy to go along with a cuppa of hot tea in the afternoon!

closed up shot of cupcake!~

pastel pink cream on top~ which is one of the reason i choose to eat you


----------

So the verdict?
Definitely worth coming back again to try their tarts & cakes!! 
But the place can be a little small, so I don't really encourage big groups (group of 4 is fine!)!
 I actually prefer the outdoor seats when it's not too sunny. Good for some high tea around the vicinity, a quiet cafe to sit & chilll~ simple & elegant white deco
-----
& a thumbs up for the creative designs/ decoration on the cake!
Prices are reasonable given it's uniqueness! :D yay

The Tiramisu Hero Cafe


Hey folks, so I've heard & finally went to the new Tiramisu Hero Cafe!
It's TGIF, which means cafe-hunting day!!
We reached there about 7ish pm so it was pretty vacant to my pleasant surprise
I was hoping that we wouldn't need to queue up to get a seat, phew!
----------

The interior of the cafe once you stepped in~
rather welcoming sight
& the menu! 
the walls are decorated with Sir Antonio's

Pretty ladder

 Nuff' said now the highlight, the food!
---------
(Sorry for the over-exposed effect, wanted to brighten the food ;/ )

1. Thai Basil Pork Rice ($12.50)
The basil pork is a little spicy, but together with the rice it's just right!
the pork was good, flavorful and served hot! :)
But the rice was a little clumpy in my opinion, and the eggs a little hard.
Still worth a try if you are feeling hungry!

2. Mini Pizza ($9.90)
 Worth the try despite the waiting time! 
Tomato based pizza with portobello mushrooms goodness!
If you love portobello you gotta try this! so good!

oh flowers~

& oh so cute

& we decided to try their desserts!
----------
3. Finn Muddy Mud Pie ($8.90)
This is so good!! if you love chocolately stuff this is for you trust me!
It's like a chunk of choc ice cream bar with some layers of Oreo snugged between!
with cocoa powder( i think) on top and choc sauce & whipped cream!
Very sinful and be sure to drink lots of water after this!! ^.^

See the layer of Oreo?! HOHOHO

& Of course, the toilet!
fluffy colorful balls hanging! so cute!!



---------

& Needless to say we got to try their Tiramisu as well!!
They have many flavours to choose from (do check with the staff, not all the falvours are available everyday!)

We were quite full so I bought a jar of Strawberry Tiramisu Hero home!
Ate it a few days after~
Damage done~ #fatdieme

Honestly, I felt that this jar taste a lot like strawberry shortccake imo!
But it still taste good! & it's healthier choice too- made using low fat milk!
(a little disappointed though)Didn't taste anything like tiramisu~ hahahaha is it just me? 
Maybe the original flavour would taste more tiramisu-ish!
----------

Overall, I would say the service was pretty good, serve us water
Ambiance good as well, not too noisy or crowded!! :D
A place for small groups or even some hightea!
Gurls, you wouldn't want to miss a pretty cafe like this!
