From RoyceMary Cafe, the latest cafe to open at Victory8. Had always wanted to give the Matcha Lava Cake at To-Gather Cafe a try; surprised to find an identical one here so near my home! Moist cake that oozes a dense and rich flavoured Matcha lava when cut which flowed endlessly. Comes with cream at the side, which helps neutralise the tastebuds after the intense sweetness. There is an option to add a scoop of ice-cream at the side if you wish to enjoy your lava cake with ice-cream.
These stuffed French toast with berries and mascarpone is a sweet treat coated in cornflakes and doused in chocolate sauce. At $18 it is rather pricey, but it is a great option when at MBS, and makes up for it in decadence. Photo by Daniel Food Diary.
D.O.C certainly has an edge over the rest by nailing both the sweet and the savoury buttermilk waffle. The savoury sun-dried tomato and herb waffle with bacon, fluffy scrambled eggs and maple bacon jam is a perfect choice for breakfast. The sweet version comes with caramelized rum bananas and vanilla bean ice cream, and has won over many dessert-lovers hearts. Why not try both next time you head down? Photo by Eleanor Tay.
They serve the best passionfruit meringue tart. Pair it with their coffee or wide selection of teas for a perfect high tea.
This place is a hidden gem in the East. Their earl grey cake goes really well with their coffees.
They serve yummy and pretty desserts. Their barista does some really awesome latte art too.
This is my go-to place for my waffles and magic fix.
I am not a big fan of cheesecake but I do love their version of the tofu cheesecake.
You won't go wrong with their cherry pie and lemon-strawberry pies.
Hidden in the heartlands, this place serves a wide variety of unique ice cream flavors. Don't miss their crispy waffles too!
Passed down from generation to generation, Nan Hwa Chong Fish Head Steamboat is still standing strong. Even after 80 odd years (it's been around since 1927!), it still draws crowds on the weekend. Plus, they still use charcoal for the steamboat. The broth is pleasantly sweet from the use of fresh fish. You can choose from promfet, song fish, snapper or grouper. For an extra kick of umami, they add fried sole, which also balances out the sweetness. If steamboat isn't enough, order zi char dishes like prawn rolls and jing du pork ribs to go along with your bowl of rice!
Tsukada Nojo is constantly packed with people flocking here for the famed Bijin Nabe collagen hot pot ($25/pax, min 2 pax). This "Beauty Pot" contains vegetables, seafood, and chicken in a collagen-rich chicken soup. This incredibly flavorful soup is made from the high-quality Jidori chickens from Japan. Don't be alarmed by the bowl of silky white collagen pudding that arrives, simply watch it melt into the broth and impart its goodness. Expect fantastic service and a seriously tasty soup that you can't stop drinking. This meal will leave you feeling nourished and fully satisfied, just be prepared to put your name down for dinner early!
