[CLOSED] Tian Kee & Co.

Found this place on Burpple after being stuck at Siglap and I'm really glad we tried this out! I even doubted myself when I felt that this pizza was superb due to hunger. But as I gobbled I can confirm that this was a really awesome box of pizza (they serve it in a box even though its not a takeaway). The crust was perfect; not overly thin like other brands' yet still manages to maintain its crispiness with ample filling. The main combination of smoked duck, mozzarella cheese and rosemary was sublime. Highly recommend. 😋

P.S. I regretted not having the 12 inch one at just $3 more...

Tian Kee & Co makes a comeback at 46 Siglap Drive (it's near Flor Patisserie at Siglap and the now-defunct Coast & Company). The new space it's more of a takeaway concept but they do have ample seats around for dine-in; some of the items from the original Dakota Crescent branch can still be found in here (including the prized signboard) though the furniture isn't quite fully arranged during the visit. Currently serving familiar cakes such as the Rainbow Cheesecake and Ugly Nutella, they are also serving a new range of tea-inspired ice-creams and would also be bringing back the coffee machine sometime soon. Takeaway brunch is also planned to be launched in the near future as they head towards the actual launch.

While I am not a very much into the Ugly Nutella (it's my first try) for it's rather dry and crumbly and lacks chocolatey flavour at certain parts, the Ugly Nutella does come with a crisp layer atop the brownie that gives it an additional dimension of texture. That being said, it is certainly an item that brings back the nostalgia of the original Tian Kee & Co back at Dakota Crescent.

Found their range of tea-inspired ice-creams pretty interesting, though the ice-cream in general could have been a bit creamier; the texture is a little icy but the flavours still managed to pull through — my pick was the Gula Melaka Apple Cinnamon which carries a smoky and woody scent against the mellow sweetness of the apple. The Gula Melaka was intentionally made lighter here so as to not overwhelm the Apple Cinnamonn aspect.

Probably still not the best time to visit the new Tian Kee & Co now considering that the food variety is limited and the set-up is still not complete; that being said, it is a spot that would bring back some memories from the original Tian Kee & Co as a cafe once they go into full launch.

The duck meat was not overly done and remained tender and juicy, unlike those from the ColdStorage. Although I wasn't convinced with the veg used for the salad initially I decided to take back my words after the first bite of the combi..😱 I wasn't suppose to eat that much before my next meal that was going to be in less than an hour time. I will say this is definitely worth for a try especially when you're not so hungry, on special diet, reserving the tummy space for something else 😋

I just realized I had ordered something that least popular in general after my visit when checking back on IG. For this reason the chef's agility had been tested unintentionally, and I was impressed. I've decided to try up the legendary cakes and breakies on my next visit, I do hope it could be right now.. 😆
