Environment & Hygiene:

Service:
For some reason, the servers were nice at first, but eventually act annoyed towards us in the end. We were there for about 2 hours, but they weren't busy and we were not demanding, so I don't know what the problem was.
Taste & Value:
3 of us each got a tea set that came with a slice of cake and coffee/tea ($55).
1. Chocolate Hazelnut Cake (+$10) This was their Easter's Special, so it cost $10 more. The texture was moist and the chocolate was rich. My only complaint is that the ferrero on top kinda lost its crunch. Other than that, I think this was the best cake of the 3.
2. Pandan Cream Cake We were told that the pandan pistachio cake was not available so our only pandan choice was this. The cake was quite light. The cream cheese icing was quite rich, and I couldn't really taste the pandan. I only started to taste it when I ate the brown paste in the centre.
3. Eggless Truffle Cake This was an eggless, rich and smooth mousse cake. It had a nice biscuit bottom. Not bad.
4. Roselle Tea I saw that this tea is supposed to be good for our digestive system so I chose it. I find that these teas always smell better than they taste. It was a bit acidic, but had not much taste. My friends got a tea and a cappuccino. My friend liked her cappuccino so much that she ha 2 cups.
For pastas, you can choose whole wheat spaghetti, penne, linguine or others. I like that they let you choose. 5. Black Crab Linguine ($130?) I chose this pasta because it had softshell crab. The softshell crab was quite small, and the whole dish was quite salty in general, but it was not bad tasting.
6. Chicken Arrabiata (Penne) ($120?) This tomato based pasta was surprisingly tasty. The sauce was just right in taste, and the chicken was well seasoned. I like that the chicken was pan fried before throwing into the pasta.
7. Banana Pancakes ($90?) My friend ordered this, but I didn't try it as I was overloaded with sugar after finishing the cake. The pancakes looked interesting, as there were huge chunks of bananas in the batter; more bananas than batter. Final Verdict:
Not a bad place for food.
