From the same management of Tampopo and Tampopo Deli is relatively new café Dulcet & Studio. I love their cakes and my all-time favourite is the Fruit Scoop Cake. However, when I recently tried it again, to my shock and disappointment, the cream was not as rich and sweet. Plus there was very much less of it and seemed to have more cake sponge instead! The best part of the cake IS the RICH (yet light) and SWEET cream in its abundance! Have they tweaked their recipe? Please no!

For affordable Italian food, this is the place to go! I like their Hawaiian pizza, at $6.40, it’s a personal pan size for one. Plus, their escargots are the real deal and at a steal of $5.90! Where else can you get a decent Seafood Spaghetti for only $7.90? Or a plate of chicken wings (8) for the same price? The best part is…there’s no GST or service charges!! So, decent food at low prices…what are you waiting for?

This place serves pork ham on its pizza! Hooray! I’ve nothing against chicken ham, but honestly, pork ham tastes better because of the higher fat content! Tried their Hula Hawaiian, and it was good with a nice and rather thick crust. That said, their Caesar salad with chicken was disappointing, one would think that it would come with chicken strips or shreds, instead, chicken ham was used, so it was not as tasty as it had less bite. However, the big piece of garlic bread which came along with it was delicious! Also, it would have been better had real instead of soy bacon bits were used. But their Seafood aglio olio was surprising tasty.

Ever since this place opened, my family and I have been here countless of times! We love the dim sum and usually order the works: Hao Gao, Siew Mai, Lotus rice, carrot cake, chee cheong fun, porridge, all really tasty! Above average-tasting egg tarts too, but mind you they're only nice eaten in the restaurant. I bought some in the evening to takeaway and they tasted stale.

Most people know this place for their soups, artisan breads and sandwiches, but did you know that they serve mains too? And All-Day Breakfasts here too, hooray! I tried their crab meat pasta, and it had a good portion of shredded crab meat in it. And their pancakes are absolutely scrumptious! I had the blueberry ones paired with vanilla ice cream and oh! I must go back again!
