Tucked away in Katong is @amblingturtle a double storey modern Peranakan cafe, located in The Flow that's just a stone throw away from Marine Parade.
Offering Peranakan-inspired menu with savouries options such as Satay Chicken, Pulled Beef Rendang with options of Croissant/ Sourdough for add-on. They also serves desserts inspired by local flavours such as Pulut Hitam tart & Ondeh Ondeh Cake & assorted kuehs.
What I try,
The tarts here have buttery crisp cookie crust.
Ondeh Tart ($8)
Made with fresh Coconut Milk, Pandan Juice & Gula Jawa. This adorable tart sees a handmade pandan jelly turtle gummy & toasted coconut flakes sitting atop pandan custard & gula jawa. Make to look like a turtle sunbathing on a beach. So cute!! The silky pandan custard has a strong pandan fragrance, while the gula jawa thick with a toasty toffee-like aroma. The coconut flakes added crunch, contrasting against the other elements of this tart.
