Being weekend the place was rather crowded. Lucky I had the foresight to make a reservation before coming. But there was no reservation counter at the place, so I decided to join the queue to place order. It was quite a long wait as the queue moved quite slowly. Most will wait until its almost their turn to order then quickly grab a menu. The problem was most had not decided their order when it was their turn at the cashier. Wish that people had decided their order before queuing, not queuing be
When it was my turn to order, I told the staff about my reservation who gave me a as if not my business look. The other staff standing next to him, heard me and went out to look for a table. Interestingly it was my turn to order, the staff seemed to be busy with other stuffs. Took awhile to get his attention. One would be given a pager which acted more like a table number for the staffs to bring the dishes to you.
This month the cafe just added a YAYOI Special Food Menu which consisted of an Appetiser ($12++), Main Dish ($25++), Dessert ($12.50++), and Bobba Tea ($7.50++).
Main Dish ($25++)Pan-seared chicken, quinoa, fregola, pumpkin puree, pickled seasonal vegetables, shimeji mushroom
The serving looked a tab too small. Overall not bad except for the slightly too salty over seasoned chicken.
Dessert ($12.50++)Coconut mousse, mango curd and cubes, pumpkin sponge, pumpkin biscuit
Nice presentation with the pumpkin item served on a gold dusted black colored plate. The sponge was rather thin that one could barely tasted it. Overall it was overwhelmed by the coconut taste. The mousse was soft and light.
Bobba Tea ($7.50++)black tea, passion fruit syrup, strawberry syrup, chia seeds, dragon fruit balls, tadpole IQ balls
The drink was quite pretty in look. The drink was too sweet, lacking of the tea flavour. The tadpole balls gave bouncy texture.
