After a long day of helping out with a voluntary organisation, *Charmaine and I decided it was time for a little pampering and catching up, hence we headed to the nearby Lobby Court cafe lounge at Swisshotel the Stamford.Lobby Court is a small but cosy, and tastefully decorated with plushy couches and lit pillars on polished wood panelled floors. I always feel rather halcyon-ic when I am here in this quiet setting, whether for tea or drinks.I remember they serve TWG tea, so that was what we orde
Lobby Court is a small but cosy, and tastefully decorated with plushy couches and lit pillars on polished wood panelled floors. I always feel rather halcyon-ic when I am here in this quiet setting, whether for tea or drinks.I remember they serve TWG tea, so that was what we ordered for this cooling Saturday afternoon. I had a pot of Choco Mint Truffle tea (SGD$12.00) - a creamy and rich luscious tea with two of my favorite favors incorporated into a dessert tea.
We both loved their Biscottis so much that we actually ordered more (SGD$2.00 for 3 pieces), because the crunchy, buttery cookies were just so tasty. It was the first time we both paid such attention to biscottis before, since usually they were just accompaniments to a hot drink.
I had a slice of Raspberry Pistachio cake (SGD$8.90) - chosen amongst three choices. The cake came with a crunchy tart texture, and was richly infused with a nutty and chocolately deliciousness; the texture was a little hard on the outside but tender within, hence balancing the tart to a perfection. The raspberry cream and pistachio combination was brilliant - imagine flavors burst of sour sweetness amongst the more steady base of nuts and chocolate. We both agreed that this dessert was a brilliant choice.For more detailed information and photos, please feel free to visit:
