Welcome to Chinese Garden. Looking for Vegetarian places?

Really grateful and appreciated that we spend time from travelling frm east to west. Its kinda hard and out of the way for us tbh. I wanted to come with my friend for their dessert especially their cakes. Their cakes got one of the kind like unique shape not that usual cake size. We managed to squeeze out on time for weekend. We really enjoyed DALE ($11) a lot and my opinion just fallen in between bitter and sweet note for taste. Taste like grassy but a bit sour aftertaste due to yuzu. photo credits: huiyi ✌

Whenever we make the journey back to the West, @lees_confectionery has always been one of our fave go-to places for handmade artisan cakes and delicious coffee.

Wanted to try the 𝙊𝙐𝙉𝙄💜, but as luck would have it, the last one went to the guy in front of us who ordered one of everything on the menu, so we had to give it a miss this time.. *laughcry* 😝🙃🙃

I wish I could explain the intricacies of every detailed work of art that's painstakingly plated and put together upon each order, but I'll let the photos, and your taste buds experience this for yourself!

𝙊𝙏𝙏𝙊 🟢 - Nutty 𝘗𝘪𝘴𝘵𝘢𝘤𝘩𝘪𝘰 𝘊𝘳𝘦𝘢𝘮 wrapped around an 𝘖𝘳𝘢𝘯𝘨𝘦 𝘊𝘢𝘬𝘦 🍊 centre, and encased in an artistically constructed 𝘈𝘭𝘮𝘰𝘯𝘥 𝘛𝘢𝘳𝘵 🥜shell. Not too sweet, and every mouthful was an enjoyable medley of textures that complemented each ingredient beautifully. Special shoutout to the accompanying 𝘗𝘪𝘴𝘵𝘢𝘤𝘩𝘪𝘰 𝘐𝘤𝘦 𝘊𝘳𝘦𝘢𝘮 on the side! 😋💚💚💚

𝙈𝘼𝘿𝙐 🐝 - A classic flavour that we've returned for again and again - 𝘏𝘰𝘳𝘭𝘪𝘤𝘬𝘴 𝘔𝘰𝘶𝘴𝘴𝘦🍦/ 𝘏𝘰𝘯𝘦𝘺 𝘊𝘢𝘳𝘢𝘮𝘦𝘭🍯🍮/ 𝘊𝘰𝘳𝘯𝘧𝘭𝘢𝘬𝘦𝘴🍪. Malty and subtly sweet, it's a little bite of comfort, especially when paired with a dollop of 𝘔𝘪𝘭𝘬 𝘐𝘤𝘦 𝘊𝘳𝘦𝘢𝘮.

The bad news is... They are closing down soon, and their last day will be on 1st October 2023... 😭😭 So, please support these talented and passionate bakers while you still have the chance! 🇸🇬♥️♥️

I didn't like this, the honey doesn't come thru at all, the mascarpone mixed w milk cream was too light and it's only the caramel nuts that carry the flavour of the piece. The Horlicks ice cream was mild and the cornflakes were abit too tough, overall it was mild and didn't leave an impression

Back at Lee's Confectionery and this time I got to try their OTTO ($12). Shaped like a pistachio, the nutty number had really fun textures - I especially like the thin layer of chocolate. Filled with Pistachio mousse, 70% pistachio praline and a moist chunk of orange almond cake; the zesty flavour of the cake was unfortunately pretty subtle in my opinion. And the pistachio ice cream on the side could definitely be more distinct and fragrant as well. However, the rich pistachio praline paste really gave the plate a pleasantly roast-y flavour boost. The crunchy almond tart shells were nice and buttery too.

Their crispy choux pastry is still one of my favourite as it is amazingly light and airy. Loaded with yummy whipped coconut cream, lemongrass-infused rice pudding and fresh mango cubes; the combination in AROY ($11) was right up my alley. The hints of lemongrass being the highlight for me as it added a refreshing fragrance. A bright, tropical hit, the mango ice cream was also sweet and paired amazingly with the choux.

Had a really enjoyable time here, as the food, service and ambience were great. I thoroughly enjoyed the choc cherry tart, as it was rich and creamy and chocolate-y, and not too sweet and used dark chocolate. The texture was complex, with the tart shell, soft mousse and crunchy top bits. The flavor of the cherry was a nice complement to the chocolate as you could get bits of sourness from the cherry bits. It even came with a small scoop of chocolate sorbet at the side and some cherry sauce. The citrus tart was also good, but I personally preferred the chocolate one. The citrus tart had a fresh and refreshing citrus flavor, and a layer of almond cake in between. It came with olive oil sorbet which was quite unique but I prefer the classic chocolate. The iced latte was refreshing, flavor was nutty, dark and chocolate-y. It was a good complement to the desserts.

Smooth, airy and light creamy. Buttery sweet honey joys cornflakes structure within honey caramel and horlicks mascarpone cream. Paired with a matching scoop of honey-based gelato.

Classic light yellowish lime cream with a sprinkle of lime zest over a layer of lime almond olive cake, then encased within crumbly almond tart shell. Paired with a matching scoop of lime-based gelato. Zesty, citrusy, medium sweet and a hint of savouriness.

Crispy choux pastry bursting with fresh luscious cream, topped with whipped vanilla cream and fresh strawberries. Paired with a matching scoop of strawberry-based gelato. Milky strawberry sweetness screamed through my soul. Approved from a strawberry lover.

Magnify the size of Pistachio by 50 times, this is what you get. A Pistachio Evolution! 😂
Almond tart shells clamping a big nutty nut made of chocolate that filled with pistachio mousse, 70% pistachio praline, and orange almond cake. Paired with a matching scoop of pistachio-based gelato. Nutty, earthy and well-balanced sweetness.
