Had a sudden craving for Coffee in Admiralty and the 1st shop popping up in my mind ? Would you believe Chief: Caffe Habitu!! Especially at the branch under Hutchison Building. (I mean, there's Pacific Coffee and Starbucks too next door... )Ordered their Seasonal Signature Coffee @ around $56-58:******************************ALBA'S WHITE TRUFFLE CREAM CAFFE LATTE - It sounded gimmicky, but that Truffle Cream really did carry a massive dose of White Truffle essence, but since its in creamy

ALBA'S WHITE TRUFFLE CREAM CAFFE LATTE -
It sounded gimmicky, but that Truffle Cream really did carry a massive dose of White Truffle essence, but since its in creamy form it won't smell great until it starts melting in the coffee and in your mouth.... that's when it really hits! Its quite addictive as it is presented in this form but ultimately becomes overpowering! The coffee base was also pretty acceptable at this branch just as I'd remembered, at least above my @Rex Caffe experience. There's enough Velvety foam and also a much need stronger Espresso base, its surprising that there're inconsistencies amongst the branches and shops. SCORE: 4.0/5.0
MIXED MUSHROOMS SOUP WITH TRUFFLE OIL -
This was ok but needed much more wild mushrooms as it was slightly plain and too creamy, also had little whole pieces of mushrooms. I counted 2 only. No signs of Truffle Oil essence was detected either, I think it was forgotten. SCORE: 3.0/5.0
CANNELE -
Its strange to see a 'Cannele' in Habitu but at only $7.0 a piece, I forgive their mis-spelling of the Canele! It was reheated by the staff correctly for me in the oven. The centre was slightly eggy but overall it was too spongy with voids, also lacks the sweet-bitterness and rum plus vanilla essence. Not very authentic in texture, it bothered me more than its taste - but at least better than Coco Frans! SCORE: 3.8/5.0
*********************************
MORE '4' THAN '3' DUE TO COFFEE.
