Cookie with a cake-like texture. White chocolate chunks that ooze out at each bite. Yummy!

This would be easily one of my favourites when it comes to nostalgic-themed cafes. What used to be located within the grounds of The Dispensary was a Chinese Medicine Hall, and The Dispensary beautifully combines that theme with the cafe by incorporating the cafe into the shop space rather than vice versa (which a lot of cafes does these days). A lot of detail can be seen that shows the amount of effort in preserving the shop's past; the old Chinese medicine cabinets, the mirror with Chinese characters and the outdoor facade all pays tribute to its past. While The Dispensary does serves all-day brunches and sandwiches, go for their cakes; especially the sliced ones since it is what they are known for. Feeling stuffed? Takeaway some of the cupcakes instead, which gives you a rough gauge on what to expect for their sliced cakes as well.

I must admit that I had a difficult time trying to locate this place. It was well tucked in a small corner at Duxton hill. Small and quant shop which I'm pretty sure is always full on weekends. Because the weather is super warm, I had wished for a stronger aircon. I liked that I was greeted at the door and shown to my seat. Something different from the usual cafes I have been to. I'll be back to try that waffles

I had wanted to try the waffles since there have been rave reviews on it. But I was still a little full from lunch so I had something lighter. You could taste the honey from the first bite and the lavender flavour comes in a few seconds later. Icing made the cake sweeter, so do pair this with a cup of coffee to counter that sweetness.

Coffee was full bodied with a fragrant aroma. One of my best

I must admit, when it comes to waffles, I am very fussy and have super high expectations. I was looking forward to fluffy waffles but what I got was flat, undercooked waffles. The oil from the chicken was not drained well and made the waffles even soggier than it already is. And I felt like it was a mess for me to eat. There was nothing eggy about this dish and the hard boiled egg was overcooked with a huge grey ring around the yolk. But at $6.90 with a drink, I guess it's not too bad.

Situated in a two-story fire-engine red shophouse, Drury Lane along Tanjong Pagar Road is almost hard to miss. Serving up all-day-breakfast with additional dishes such as Cloud 9 (Cream Cheese Pancakes) and 1935 Toast (French Toast with Peanut Butter and Banana) on the weekends, the cafe also offers a variety of homemade pastries which changes daily, serving a seasonal blend of coffee with beans from Toby's Estate and a 'pay as you wish' concept for their muffins.

So I had the blueberry pancakes with berry compote and ice cream. Being a huge lover of McDonald's pancakes, I was a little disappointed about not having served fluffy pancakes. But it's decent. A little flat but not too bad. Price is rather steep for me though. Should I make a return trip, it will be one that I'm sharing this with.

Yummy, soft cinnamon buns from Star Cinnamon at Bugis Junction, Basement

Did I tell you I'm a fan of latte art? Yes I was served upon this and saw that fern leaf foam. All in all this drink has got me wanting for more, but unfortunately I was full from all the eating. Priced at $5 you'd never regret buying this!

The flattened marshmallow aka smores was chewy & when you cut it together with the waffles & ice cream it just melts in your mouth
