Grateful for Relaxing Moments: Flat Whites & Lattes at Cosy Cafes
It’s when I feel the most relaxed outside. I like going back to the same places. Cafe Aux Bacchanale and Da Paolo Gastronomia. Familiar friendly faces, good quality and comfy chairs. I do have social anxiety as I imagine many … Continue reading

Where We Used Our CDC Vouchers #11: First Time at a New Coffee Joint – Niche Savoureuse
We didn’t plan to go here and it was quite a random find. Glad we checked it out. They serve good coffee here which surprised us as it’s rare as most places have coffee that’s acidic & sourish. Reminded us … Continue reading

Back to the Woodshed at Rangoon Road
Really nice relaxed vibe here even though I find the coffee a tad bitter. Perhaps I’ll stick to tea next time.
La Ristrettos
Another place that I have been meaning to check out and finally got the company. So glad my cousin trudged all the way with me to Novena Medical Centre and since she has a better sense of direction, she led … Continue reading

We literally stumbled upon this cafe at the Upper Serangoon area. My partner spotted it from the coffeeshop where we were having dinner. It’s another hip little ice cream waffles and coffee cafe located within HDB blocks and we like … Continue reading

Pacamara
Lovely new brunch place at the Upper Thomson area – Pacamara Boutique Coffee Roasters. Only problem is, it’s very difficult to find a place to park your car. I definitely want to come here again as I found the first … Continue reading

Woodshed: New Coffee Place at Rangoon Road
I didn’t expect much from the Wood Shed at 204 Rangoon Road, but was impressed. It looks like a furniture store from the outside (I think it probably was) and very tiny, but there’s actually a huge space inside and the … Continue reading

Somewhere Over the Rainbow
Back to The Coffee Daily for Rainbow cake. I’ve always found the song ‘Somewhere Over the Rainbow’ to be very sad. I associate it with losing someone but perhaps there is a bright side and you can find them at … Continue reading

Artisan Boulangerie Co. (ABC) at Katong 112
Somehow prefer the branch at Vivocity, the pastries seemed fresher there and it was not as crowded. The coffee looks good but I find it a tad bitter. They do baguette sandwiches best of all and you can’t go wrong … Continue reading

Tiong Bahru Bakery: Orange Croissant & Latte

Iced Latte at Tiong Bahru Bakery (Raffles City)
Tiong Bahru Bakery used to be very exclusive when it first popped up at a remote corner in the old Singapore estate, Tiong Bahru. A real French Cafe, finally. But now that it has a second branch I’m glad it’s … Continue reading
