Cream and Custard

By -
Part two of our Tiong Bahru cafe hopping journey is continued at Cream and Custard. I followed them on Instagram and always enjoyed looking through their lovely desserts against the clean white backgrounds. Exactly like the photos on Instagram, the cafe is simple and cozy, a great place to enjoy your desserts. Also many thanks to @thelocalhunter for the giveaway, I get to enjoy their Passion Fruit Meringue Tarts



We wanted to try the cool looking black ball at first, but the Chef's recommended we try Sundae as it is would taste lighter as it is made of mascarpone cheese compared to the rich dark chocolate in S'mores. The Passion Fruit Meringue Tart is also one of their specials but my favorite is still the Sundae, which I fell in love on the first bite, S'mores may be a little 'jelat' if one were to finish the whole thing on its own. The passion fruit meringue tart has a little hint of sourness but not as bad as it is light. Overall, we had a great balance of rich and light flavors in our choice of desserts.  


The desserts just look so pretty on its own. Pretty on the outside and delicious in the inside.

Sissy is like can we eat already?




Cream and Custard has a environment which is really suitable for sipping a cuppa while reading a book, but I would still prefer that people would not do that as it would hog up seats for avid cafe hoppers who are there to enjoy the desserts.


I certainly would come back for more, one of the best desserts I've tried so far. It might not be very accessible for many, but I guess my love for desserts will overcome the distance.

Korea day 5

By -

Time passes so fast when you are enjoying yourself. It is the fifth day in Korea. As usual, we packed up and left the resort in the morning to eat breakfast at the place we had our dinner the day before. I had quite a phobia that they will serve the fake "codfish" soup again as it does not taste nice at all. Luckily, the menu was beef stew soup but we do not eat beef so the soup was substituted with pork tonkatsu which is made with seafood. It does not taste appetising at all and I did not eat much as I am not used to eating rice for breakfast. I also hate having to eat mayonnaise with rice. It just tastes so...wierd...   After breakfast, we left for Everland. It opens at 9.30am but we reached there at about 10plus. We took a shuttle bus into the amusement park and took both group and solo photos at the entrance. Following that, we left to tour the park. At it was snowing that morning, many rides were closed so we sort of wasted our time there and took pictures instead. ...

Literally rolled out of bed early for this Maki-San X FoodPanda event held at 112 Katong Maki-San's third outlet. Many thanks to Mich again for jio-ing me to this event since Paul could not make it  I've tried Maki-San once at their first Cathay outlet and I really enjoyed it and looked forward to rolling my own Makis at this event.  These days the trend is all about customization and insta-worthy food. Maki-San simply fulfill our need for novelty by allowing us to customize our very own makis with the toppings we like. Brown rice option is also available for the health conscious.  Really love the pretty and colorful packaging, which won several awards.  Even my friend brought home the boxes after eating > < Being early, we were the first to arrive at the event. We were given each a nice foodpanda apron to wear so that we will not dirty our clothes.    Mich is like a panda after suffering from insomnia last night ...

Mean Bean & Wicked Grind

After sending cousin off at Goldenmile for her coach to Kuala Lumpur, we decided to go check out Mean Bean & Wicked Grind cafe which is nearby, at The Plaza. From Goldenmile tower, The Plaza is straight up and around 10 minutes walk away. It is also just opposite Haji Lane which is quite accessible for us to go Bugis as we planned to watch a movie after checking out the cafe.  Upon reaching The Plaza, we were a little unsure if we were at the right place as it does not seem like where cafes normally should be. The reviews were accurate, this cafe is quite hard to find > <  All the stores there were mostly furniture stores or travel agencies, hence, we decided to check with the information desk. Much to our surprise, the counter staff knew almost immediately where we wanted to go and gave us directions that it is straight up inside. HOW ULU!  We finally found the cafe! It is quite a small cafe with only two tables inside and a few outside. But the deco...
