Reason I visited:I accidentally found out that they now have a Praline and Peanut croissant, so as a die hard Peanutbutter lfan, I had to try it. Service:I remember coming here with my sister and friend a few months ago, but because the service wasn't very good and the food/coffee was soso, I didn't think much of it and didn't think that I would be back. However, the only person who was working there was very friendly and polite, which made me change my mind about the place. Taste & Value:Like

Taste & Value:
Like last time, I ordered the Tea set that included 1 croissant and coffee/tea/latte/ cappuccino ($45). Unfortunately, the white truffle croissant couldn't be part of the set, but luckily I had come for the Praline & Peanut croissant, so no big deal. For my drink, I chose a latte. The latte was quite a handsome size, but was soso and a bit dull. It wasn't bad, but not my taste. As for the croissant, it was soso as well. For the price of it, it could have been bigger I think. Then although it had a nutty creamy filling that was pretty good and not overly sweet, the bread was on the dry side. Maybe it would have been better if I had it when it first came out of the oven. After having the croissant, I kinda understood why the coffee tasted the way it did, it was so that you could better taste the croissant.
Environment & Hygiene:The set up was kinda squishy. It was difficult for the people sitting at the inner tables to get out. I liked the idea of using bicycles as decorations, but the chairs were quite hard and not too comfy, which made the whole environment seem less nice.
I went there at tea time, so it was very busy. There were no open tables when I first arrived, but by the time my latte was ready, a few tables had left, so I luckily had a place to sit. Maybe because there was only one staff on, he was responsible for taking the order, grabbing the food, making the drinks, and cleaning up the tables, so the tables were only cleaned when there were no customers wanting to order, which explains why most tables had trash on them. Hygiene could have been better, but at the same time kudos to the staff who had to manage it all.
Final Verdict:Peanut butter is my weakness. I have had 1 sweet and 1 savory croissant from here before, and both didn't make me want to go back, but this third peanut one had made me come back, which was a mistake. I think the place down on the basement has croissants with a better texture for a more reasonable price.
