Unfortunately really did not enjoy this ): the drink itself was quite tasteless and heavy, and the chunks of purple potato were generously portioned but tasted starchy. Their other drinks like houjicha are much better!

Couldn’t resist dropping by to try their newest flavour, Oolong.
To be honest the oolong taste wasn’t very obvious. However matchaya ice cream always has a consistently creamy, rich flavour which held true for this newest addition. Still worth a try!

My favourite acai place! Love how their acai base is consistently rich and not too sweet, their ingredients are fresh and the cookie butter generously portioned. 8.5/10

Obsessed with the ice cream here! All the flavours we tried were rich and delicious, I especially loved the cereal flavour. It went so well with the mantou buns, which were perfectly crispy and buttery. Can’t wait to try their other ice cream combinations with waffles and cookie cups. 8.5/10

Was very impressed by both the presentation and taste of this dish. The ice cream was creamy with a strong hojicha taste, and the waffles were the right amount of crispy. The brownies were also a nice touch, with their rich chocolatey taste aptly balanced by the ice cream. Only gripe was that the waffles came cold. Will definitely be back. 7.5/10

$4.50 for milk
Really loved how there are two different ways to drink this tea, with wholly different flavours! One sipping the foam topping, another using a straw for the milk and brown sugar pearls. The brulee flavour is quite subtle. The pearls taste very similar to Tiger Sugar to me, with both brands achieving a delicious chewy and soft texture. 8/10!!

The cafe is currently having 1-for-1 for their pastas! This was $19 before discount. The laksa sauce was authentic, and the soft shell crab generously sized. Overall the dish was good but quite dry, and the crab could have been tastier. The cafe interior and service was very pleasant!

1-for-1 with Burrple
I’ve been a huge fan of matchaya for so long, but never ventured beyond their signature soft serve till beyond came about. I felt that all these extra ingredients perfectly complemented the ice cream, in particular the red bean paste and the mochi. The servings were generous and aesthetically pleasing.

$18.80 for upsized don
Have been a loyal fan of Omote since it’s Sushiro days at the other corner of Thomson Plaza, but I have to say their standard has clearly dropped. The sauce has a weird synthetic saccharine taste, the cubes aren’t as fresh, and the portion of the original $12 bowl is much smaller. Would probably not go back for awhile.

$7/ slice
Truly regretted not visiting this place earlier! In the end we only made in on the last day (before the main Bakers left) and for one of their last offerings. Was initially sceptical as this was a simple vegetarian pizza with only onions and cheese. But it turned out delicious! The sourdough bread really stood out.

One of the best Japanese meals I’ve had in Singapore. Everything we ordered was fresh, beautifully prepared and well seasoned. It is very expensive at about $20 or more per dish, but worth it for the quality.

An adorable treat to celebrate this Lunar New Year. These pigs had a raspberry pistachio filling with a biscuit base. Tasted very smooth and rich, but a bit too light.
