There has been quite some talk about diff recently on social media — these folks are a little bit unique considering how they are running a coffee stand out of a stall situated within the coffeeshop; located within the new Local Chapter coffeeshop at CT Hub 2 (previously occupied by Jin Hai Wan Eating House). Interestingly, diff is not the only beverage stall situated within the coffeeshop; there is also Kopi+ that acts as the typical coffee stall serving up local Nanyang-style Kopi & Teh alongside typical toast offerings within the coffeeshop as well. diff is decked rather differently from the standard coffeeshop stall; its sleek looks for its counter being more similar to that of takeaway coffee kiosks in the Central Business District instead. diff serves up espresso-based specialty coffee, filter coffee, tea, matcha and drinking chocolate for its beverages, whilst they also have a line-up of vienoisseries and cakes that are stocked in their display cases to pair up with the beverages. Both their espresso-based specialty coffee and filter coffee offerings are brewed using beans roasted by Fluid that runs their own premises at 24 Opal Crescent.
diff does offer a line-up of Kek Lapis in their display case during our visit to the establishment — the three flavours would namely be the Original, Pandan and Chocolate; we found ourselves going for the Original version. All Kek Lapis variants are served in quite a substantially-sized square slab at diff. The Kek Lapis (Original) at diff does come a little bit dense like how one would expect Kek Lapis to come with, though we also note that it is one of the lighter Kek Lapis that we have come across — possibly the reason why these folks do serve it in the portion size that they do. We do find that the Kek Lapis was a pretty good accompaniment to both the White and the Black from the Coffee section of the menu here; the Kek Lapis does come being suitably sweet, all that whilst carrying distinct notes of spices such as that of cinnamon and nutmeg that come through quite evidently as well.
