I am totally surprised that there are no reviews for this wonderful coffeeshop bread! It is a pity that the coffeeshop is moving as the building has been sold recently.

it is of coz not the best coffeeshop to dine in but the toast and coffee are awesome~~~ It's also a bit sad that the people toasting the bread are not locals. But still they managed to hone their skills well. I was there a few Saturdays ago with some friends for a truly local breakfast at this unique building~! It is a very laid back coffeeshop. Just place your order at the counter and wait for it there or if they are not very busy they may send it to your table.

The french toast is a must order. Each slice of bread is completed coated with egg they come topped with cold butter. Mix the butter with the toast and coat it with some kaya on the side. the taste is just awesome!!~ Truly my No. 1 coffeeshop french toast ever!!! If french toast is not quite your thing, then u can still have the usual kaya butter toast.
bread is toasted nice and crispy. Goes well with the half boiled eggs or a nice cup of coffee. do go visit them soon before they move away

We have eaten their snow ice at their other outlet. So we decided to go for their non ice dessert this time round.

This is what we tried. Gingko barley barely has any barley in it! ( $3!!!)

Quite disappointing but the dessert it self was okay.. not too sweet. Orh nee was a tad sweet for us . Gingko has a bitter taste to them..they did not remove the center bitter portion.

I guess they are still good for the snow ice dessert.. don't go for the hot dessert unless u want to be disappointed.

There were only less than 15 people in the shop when we were there. It was also a little warm, not sure what's wrong with the air-con.

This is a very outdated review. I mean I have been to CSHH many times. It's not so much that I really like the coffee or the food..it's more for the company and it's convenience to places i go for dinner at times, because I am staying very near Lavender. I actually visited them on their first day of opening way back last year.

You can read about it here on my blog. http://providence1974.blogspot.sg/2012/08/lazing-afternoon-away-at-chye-seng-huat.html

It did create a fanfare when it was first opened and it lasted for months.. many of my friends were awed by the place and it's location and of course the name chosen. Who would have thought of using such a name for a cafe? It was unique.

Anyhow, I will just review what I have tried at CSHH so far.

Pancake- pancake itself was okay. More butter would be good..since there are 5 slices..One small piece is not gonna be enough for all 5. Blueberries ..our jaws dropped when we saw 5 tiny round things around the plate of pancakes. Cost of pancakes- $9 or $10 . 5 berries? really? Cold brew- okay drinkable. Love it on a hot hot afternoon.
Nutella muffin- dry ..needs to be eaten with that chocolate..Omelet- not too bad but am not too sure if it is still on the menu I love the decor I prob will still visit this place but not as often since there are so many cafes in this area.

It was by chance that I bought some Ondeh Ondeh from this stall at The Hong Lim Food Centre.

I was going around the stalls , deciding what to eat for lunch when I came across this stall that sells kueh. Ondeh Ondeh has always been my NO.1 favourite kueh. So imagine my eyes lit up when I saw boxes of ondeh ondeh lined up in front of the stall. I just couldn't resist them!

So I bought a box of 6 to try. I think it was $2 (cannot recall) It was still warm!~ You know some ondeh ondeh has very thick skin and the gula melaka inside is pathetic. This one is the king of ondeh ondeh! Skin is thin, and the ondeh ondeh is enough to make you cry!

Eat it whole and let the ondeh ondeh explode in your mouth.. again this taste and feeling is indeed 100% heavenly! Ok... now go get some and try!!!!

This cafe is just right next to KFC. And there are many people walking past you as you eat ..just for your information

We have only been there once. Well, food served is okay. Normal I would say. But presentation of the food is quite nice!

Have you seen clouds in your cup of beverage!? Well look! Here's mine.. this is my hot chocolate.

The marshmallow added some fun to a otherwise normal tasting hot chocolate

Next we also ordered some salad. Not too bad. Doused with vinaigrette!



And lastly, mushroom soup - served in a mesh tin!



If you need a place to rest your feed and some bites, I suppose this cafe serves this purpose
