Looking for High Tea places?

Hmm. Exquisite concept and food. But underwhelming food that I didn't enjoy.

The mochi layer is soft and slightly chewy, more like a delicate sheet and it melts right into the spoon. Underneath, the orh nee is smooth, rich and not too sweet, which I really appreciated. Comforting, creamy and just enough chew to keep things interesting 》$6.90

The tea came in a beautiful pot, warm and comforting with floral notes and roasted depth. Portion was generous, perfect for sharing, though I felt the milk leaned a little heavy and sometimes overshadowed the tea. Still, there’s a quiet charm in sipping it slowly, more subtle than bold 》$13.90

[FARRER PARK, SINGAPORE] Found another quality Chinese dessert cafe that I will be back again to try out many more of their selections 😍

They are famous for their roasted milk tea, which we got the Osmanthus 🌼 version ($13.90). It may seem expensive, but 1 pot can feed about 2-3 pax. This is meant to drink hot, and you can really taste the amount of quality ingredients in this. It was strong yet fragrant, with just a slight sweetness. At first I wasn't really drawn to the tea, but it slowly grew on me as I appreciated the fresh tea flavours.

If you are not a tea person, fret not as they have great desserts too. One of their famous ones is their Taro Mochi 🍠🍡 ($6.90). You might be thinking about mochi balls, but it's actually the velvety, smooth yet slightly chewy white layer on top. Digging into this reveals a bed of orh nee which was not too sweet and was smooth as well.

I'm glad that their desserts lean towards being less sweet, which is great knowing it's not too sinful to have their desserts. Can't wait to come back to try more items! 🤤

cold food. Loose service. Even chase us away, cos other people have booking. The guy manger attitude is over the roof. Even roll his eyes on me.

($4.80) i never see mini dessert before as they promote omakase dessert than their cafe menu tbh. but at least their size looked cute tbh. black sesame didn't overlaps each other with matcha and red bean.

($23) i would be said that their rosti just average lmao at least their scrambled egg and sausage saved the day tbh.

Strawberry Souffle ($16) - Light and not overly eggy or sweet, the stack of soufflé pancakes was wonderfully fluffy. The cream was airy too and matched nicely with the sweet fresh strawberries and sauce. The popping bobas/toppings offered a fun touch as well with the added textures and flavour.

Slow Weekday Tea Break at Lantine!

[Yay, there was no queue on a late Thursday afternoon]

Rock Tea Roasted Milk Tea ($13.90) - Aromatic and deliciously balanced, the classic concoction came highly recommended and understandably so. And as one that usually orders hot milk tea, I enjoyed that their blend was none too sweet or milky. The signature roasted drink was also smooth and belly-warming.

From now till 4 May, Orchard Hotel is running it’s Flaming Feast: Prime "Meats" Seafood BBQ Buffet.

This buffet is a dream come true for meat and seafood lovers. From juicy, US grain-fed prime rib to smoky BBQ brisket and fall-off-the-bone pork ribs. Don’t miss the slow-roasted Kurobuta pork shoulder—rich, tender, and full of flavor.

Seafood fans, you’re in for a treat too. There’s baked whole salmon with béarnaise, sashimi galore (think Hokkaido tako, Norwegian salmon, and yellowfin tuna), and dinner-exclusive US oysters Bienville. Swing by on Friday or Saturday for Boston lobster and snow crab.

At the charcoal grill, it’s a meat lover’s playground - New Orleans BBQ prawns, beef sirloin, lamb chops, pork belly, gourmet sausages.

Go with an empty stomach as you’ll want to try everything!

A chilled, sweet, and tart fruity tea that’s refreshing and perfect to cool you down.

Even their coffee with milk is exceptional! It’s rich, aromatic, smooth, and comforting, with the osmanthus touch adding a lovely floral fragrance. Frothy on top and pleasantly milky at the bottom, this latte is truly a delight for the mind and soul.
