Espresso poured over coconut ice cream, drizzled with gula Melaka sauce and a sprinkle of toasted coconuts. While coconut typically pairs well with coffee, this concoction is tad too heavy for my liking. Too many things happening in this tiny cup, too many flavours and textures spoil an otherwise good trendy concept.

Had a trio fusion baos for lunch: pulled pork, salted egg shrimp and chili crab. The baos carrier both steamed and fried are good, fluffy and moist. I like the salted egg shrimp, crisp and fresh shrimps coated in flavorful salted egg sauce sandwiched in a fluffy bun. However the same can't be said for pulled pork and chili crab. The crab is a tad dry and chili crab sauce on the side is diluted and bland. Pulled pork is not tender enough and tastes a little bland.

While the toast achieved a balance of flavors of peanut butter and jelly, it lacks of a memorable flavor intensity and texture. Vanilla ice cream served on the side is creamy and great tasting. There's a premium vanilla taste and mouthfeel to it.
