Welcome to Pasir Ris.

The success of modernised bakery stalls in hawker centres situated in town such as the likes of Cat in the Hat at Golden Mile Food Centre, My aunty’s bakery at Market Street Food Centre, and Lian Hup Heng at Amoy Street Food Centre has probably seen a trend of such establishments opening up in the hawker centre scene of the late — whilst Petite Krumbs is one of such establishments that had also sprouted up at Amoy Street Food Centre, one of the new entrants serving up similar fare in the heartlands would be divine bites that is located at Pasir Ris Central Hawker Centre. Located within the “Fareground” zone at the second level of Pasir Ris Central Hawker Centre, divine bites occupies a stall that is located just right beside Le Pantry; the stall that serves up craft beer, coffee, tea, and sodas. Sporting a bright orange signboard, divine bites is quite impossible to miss with its signboard being rather oversized to say the least. Being a stall that primarily serves up small bakes and bite-sized treats, the menu here isn’t exactly fixed; items available for the day are stocked in the display shelf. With that being said, patrons can expect a line-up of muffins, tarts, scones, quiches and croissants apart from some other bakes being made available at divine bites.

Amongst the various flavours of muffins that they have to offer, the one that captured our attention was actually the Signature Longan Walnut Muffin — this is considering how this muffin does seem to see an interesting fusion of Asian flavours as compared to the more classic and conventional muffins flavours that are also available during the day of our visit. It seems that the folks at divine bites understand how some muffins are sized a little too substantially for those whom have smaller appetites; the muffins at divine bites are sized smaller and priced lower — perhaps in a move to also entice patrons to try more flavours at one go. The Signature Longan Walnut Muffin was noted to be not particularly dense; just about right especially considering for its size, whilst being of a fluffy consistency which made it easy to have. Flavours here are rather similar to that of Red Date Longan Tea; the cake itself bearing a mild earthy sweetness similar to that of Steamed Malay Cake that one can also find at some Hong Kong-style dim sum restaurants as well. The nibs of longan provided a fleshy, fibrous bite — we were also pleasantly surprised by how the nibs of fruit wasn’t too dry, and also gave the muffin a different dimension of sweetness whilst at it; all that with the walnuts giving a crunch factor to the muffin. The muffin is also of an adequate level of sweetness for us as well.

During our visit, we had also opted to go for the Spinach & Cheese Quiche. Similar to that of the other items that is being served at divine bites, the quiches are sized smaller almost in the same form as a tartlet though these are also sold in sets of two (2) pieces and not individually. We do suspect that the Spinach & Cheese Quiche does use the same pastry base as their sweet tart offerings; this makes their rendition of the quiche a little more tart-like since the tart base would come with more bite as compared to the light, buttery and flaky pastry base that one would expect with a quiche. The quiche filling does notably come with an eggy and creamy note of flavours whilst one can also find spinach coming within the fillings as well — the filling of the quiche being soft and silken with just the right dash of saltishness to it as well.

In comparison to the other items that they have to offer, only the Croissant, Banana Bread and the Hazelnut Chocolate Tart comes in a standard size similar to that of other similar items available elsewhere. The Hazelnut Chocolate Tart comes in a fragile tart base that tends to crack fairly easily if one isn’t too careful in handling it; likely due to it being almost unable to handle the weight of the chocolate ganache above it. The only hazelnut component in the Hazelnut Chocolate Tart seems to be the sugar-coated hazelnuts which are topped above the chocolate ganache; the chocolate ganache being all smooth, thick and gooey carrying that bittersweet notes of chocolate through and through — one which would definitely appeal to the chocolate lovers out there. Whilst the offerings divine bites aren’t as refined as other similar establishments that one can find around town such as that of Cat in the Hat, My aunty bakery, Lian Hup Heng and Petite Krumbs, we do feel that divine bites does have the sort of quality that one would be typically expecting for such bakes — the Signature Longan Walnut Muffin was however the item that really stood out to us based on whatever that we had tried. Whilst the popularity of such establishments are pretty much proven for those situated in town currently, it does remain to be seen if such establishments would enjoy a prolonged success when they are located in the heartlands. Would be interesting to see what other innovative items divine bites will push out from time to time; a stall that adds on to the diversity of the F&B scene when it comes to hawker dining in the heartlands.

Everytime I came by I would see a long snaking queue for this store. Finally, on a Sunday noon when I thought the line wasn't as long, I decided to take the plunge and join the queue.

Lots of different options, all at very affordable prices. We decided on the signatures - the Grilled Chicken Chop and the Grilled Pork Chop. Topped up for the Soup of the day as well. All in all, the food was well-worth all the good reviews and the long lines. Definitely value-for-money and restaurant-quality, and dare I say this could even compete with the likes of Astons. The meats were juicy, tender, and well-charred; the side dishes and soup were all top notch. To be honest, I would eat this every week if not for the queues.

They use tea bag tea. Nothing amazing but I guess it’s decent for the price since the milk tea is quite big and isn’t too sweet.

Ordered the Set A - Ayam Curry Kapitan that had chicken curry, nyonya chap chye, sambal egg, and blue pea rice. A hearty and filling meal, although i did not quite liked the soft texture of the chap chye. The curry chicken and sambal egg was yummy though.
