 Rainbow Cottage Cafe is a place that brighten up anyone's day! Their decor is colourful and makes you feel like you're up in the clouds right next to the rainbow! Their cakes are also very cute, colourful and they all look so delicious and tempting to order them all!

I came in a very large group of 10pax and the owner Jason was very accomodating and frequently called me up to confirm the party size and checked on what we were planning to order. This was to ensure that he had enough food prepared for my party of 10. Great cafe planning in my humble opinion! This is the first cafe to give me so much attention before I even step into the cafe! *applause*

 I started off the meal with a very familiar pizza, I didn't enjoy it so much the last time, and now, it has a stronger cheese factor! The base of the pizza crust is still disappointing but taking that aside, the ingredients tasted great and everyone loved the pizza. 

2. Baked pasta with Beef/Chicken $8.90 *Highly recommended*

 There's something about Rainbow Cottage Cafe and their pasta sauces, it is very addictive! Their beef or chicken baked pasta was so good, it disappeared almost immediately! For those who can't take beef, the chicken is very tasty and makes a perfect meal. For those who can take beef, just go for it! The beef lasagne has a stronger flavour and the beef is mouth-watering! The fragrance from the sauce is very memorable, and I would definitely order this again!

 For the non-tomato base people, there's the pasta with mushroom sauce, this sauce is alot milder in flavours compared to the tomato base. You can still taste the mushroom but just a tinge of it. The mushrooms used here seem to be thinly sliced but still juicy in every bite!

4. Baked Rice $8.90

 This seemed to be more of a baked risotto as the rice was very soft and even a baby without teeth could enjoy this main course! Some of my friends couldn't stop exclaiming in excitement as they dug into this, as this is probably the most unique experience I've had with baked rice. Usually in baked rice, the top layer of hardened cheese covers a bowl of plain white rice, but not here at Rainbow Cottage. Their rice is seasoned well and even a small mouthful of the rice is very tasty!

 In Singapore, I think we generally see more spaghetti more than lasagne, so *applause* to Rainbow Cottage for offering, macaroni, spaghetti AND lasagne. The sauce here is similar to the one with the baked pasta but there seems to be more minced chicken embedded in the layers of lasagne. Again, the chicken is very tasty, but for those who can consume beef, just go for the beef option, it has more flavours!

 Personally, after trying all their available main courses except the vegetarian pasta and wraps, this is my personal number 1 at Rainbow Cottage! The sauce was executed perfectly, it's not too salty and you can still taste the tomato and beef distinctively in every spoonful. The lasagne was cooked to perfection, the texture was on point!

 The sauces here seemed to be a slightly more watered down version of the sauce served with the baked pasta or lasagne, but still enjoyable for any spaghetti fan out there. The noodles were al dente and the portion was just right.

 Not that this was my least favourite, but there were tons of good dishes served to us and I think this didn't seem to "wow" me. My friends who weren't fans of cream based sauces told me that they loved this. I felt it was a so-so dish, even as a mushroom lover, I would rather go with the baked mushroom pasta instead of this.

 Rainbow Cottage Cafe has an array of homemade gelatos, their Bubble gum coloured cotton candy gelato (*Highly Recommended*) is so yummy! It reminds you of your childhood days eatin bubble gum and it is not too sweet either. Actually, all their gelato isn't too sweet.

 The raspberry gelato was the most sour of the flavours we picked, but it was still delicious and smooth. But beware, do not mix it with other flavours, it might not benefit the other sweeter flavoured gelatos.

The cheesecake gelato was nice, it was a very dense and creamy cheesecake in a gelato form. It did take my friends awhile to guess what flavour it was though, but everyone still enjoyed it!

 I'm not a huge fan of lava cakes but I am a huge fan of this matcha lava cake! The matcha flavour is strong and the cake is moist and the lava was milky and again, had strong matcha flavour. Paired with a scoop of Tiramisu gelato, it was a one way trip to heaven. Best of both worlds, in my humble opinion. I'm sorry chocolate lava cakes, you guys are outdated, the new thing is matcha everything! Both inside and outside!

 I had massive chocolate fans dining with me that day, so I decided to surprise them witha  dark chocolate cake and chocolate gelato. The chocolate cake was slightly on a drier side but mixed with the chocolate gelato it was sweet and enjoyable.

 Rainbow Cottage Cafe seems to be selling lots of waffles, everywhere I turn, every table seems to be order waffles with ice cream or just plain waffles. I got waffles with marshmallows and the waffles were slightly salty, I guess they expect you to order ice crema with the waffle, which is understandable. The waffle plate was cutely decorated with little chocolate and honey syrup to make it look like clouds maybe?

All in all, a very enjoyable experience for everyone and everyone had a full and happy tummy. Service was also excellent and the food came out in a timely manner. The owner Jason was also super friendly and accomodating to our every needs.

     The layers of the rainbow cake are alot thinner than other cafes and they are very vibrantly coloured. It is very pretty and photogenic. However, I felt that the cake was abit dry, and wasn't as nice as their rainbow paddlepop cheesecake which is what brought me back here. I had better hopes.

     I love their little forks, with a plastic "gem". Nonetheless, for the AMK region, whereby cafes are still popping up every month, Rainbow cottage cafe doesn't have that much competition for rainbow cakes. So if you're craving for a rainbow cake and you live in the AMK region, do give it a try.

     For the 3 of us greedy pigs, we decided to get 3 scoops. Having tried their hazelnut rocher the last time I visited, I decided to get the same flavour again. It was deliciously thick and creamy. Every mouthful tells your brain that you are eating pure ferrero rochers in an ice cream texture!

     The mocha biscotti tasted strongly of coffee, more so than chocolate. It had a slight bitter after-taste but it is a good compliment for the other ice cream flavours, as the other two were very sweet.

     The strawberry cheesecake tasted like a strawberry ice cream that wasn't sweet. There was a couple of "cheesecake" cubes embedded in the ice cream. Other than that, it resembled a typical strawberry ice cream. As one of their signature ice creams, I feel that they can do better.

     Amongst the 2 new flavours I have tried. I still prefer their chendol and hazelnut rocher. Even their bubblegum flavour was unique and memorable. 

    We waited quite a while for our waffles, as we noticed that they only had one and only one waffle iron. Probably waited a good 20 minutes for it. Thank God, it was worth the wait!!! We loved the waffles!! Interestingly, the waffle texture was a lot more crisp than the one I had last month!
    Good job guys!

    Their waffles are of the crispy exterior kind. The waffle stays crispy for quite a long while despite a melting gelato perched on top of it. The fruity pebbles added a nice crunch for each scoop of gelato, a worth 50 cent topping!

     Definitely my "go-to" spot, should I have a random waffle and ice cream craving in the AMK region.

       As the name of the shop goes, rainbow cakes, both the normal sponge kind as well as the cheesecake! The second we walked in, we reserved one of each rainbow cake, but after 1hour, we were told by the man at the cashier that the cake was double ordered! We were quite full and decided to let a young couple take the rainbow cake, we settled for the rainbow cheesecake.

       As the kitchen was getting overwhelmed with a friday night service, the staff asked if we would like to have the ice cream and waffles first, before our mains. We said okay and hurray! The waffles were fragrant and crispy! Just the way I liked them! The bubble gum ice cream was sweet and creamy and it has been awhile since I last had a good tasting bubble gum ice cream. The chendol ice cream was also a great treat, with the chendol jelly bits found in every bite of the ice cream. The rocher ice cream wasn't overly sweet and was smooth, chocolate lovers would love it!

      All in all, a great start to our friday night dinner. I now see why this cafe is always crowded. Though there are other ice cream and waffle cafes in the Ang Mo Kio region that are starting to pop up, this has the best offering in this district!

       The amount of cheese in this lasagne was just perfect. The lasagne pasta was thin and just right. It wasn't gerlat, and they were generous with the minced chicken. Everyone at the table loved this dish and I feel that this dish could be their star dish! It was well worth the 30 minute wait.

       After the delicious lasagne, we had high expectations for the pizza, which looked great, but we were disappointed upon the first bite. The base of the pizza, seems store-bought or pretty much just frozen and reheated. It wasn't crusty and even the cheese on the pizza tasted "meh" I just picked the slices of ham off and left all the pizza base to the dish washer.

       I have tried several rainbow cheesecakes from several places like bukit merah central and macpherson but this is truly my favourite rainbow cheesecake! It is light, unlike the yogurt kind which have more a jello, wobbly feel to it, this is still pretty dense. It is not gerlat and I could easily polish this off by myself, without feeling "heaty". The colours of the rainbow cake looks great, even though some pictures of the cake on instagram over the past few weeks shows a tad of "browning" on the top of the cake. I am definitely coming back for more rainbow cheesecakes!
