Heard about this outlet from a friend's facebook post. I never knew around the corner of Ann Siang Hill would have such lovely and cosy place which sell cakes. I happened to go to China Town with 2 friends to change currency for my coming Taiwan trip, and decided to drop by k-ki to have a dessert. You are at the right place when you see this red mailbox. The young lady was polite and soft spoken. Her smile was as sweet as the cakes! (I have not tried the cakes yet, LOL) I ordered this dome chocolate cake which tasted really heavenly. Before I took my time enjoying every bite of it, I spammed quite a few shots as the lighting was rather compromising as I sat outdoors. She gave me a glass of water too. We are also allowed
to pay after we have eaten. What a perfect looking dome! It looks too nice and cute to be eaten. I was rather reluctant to take the first bite that would spoil the perfection. Finally tried it. So creamy and sweet. Felt the sponge and crunch inside. I took my time savouring this piece of joy. By the way, there is the little drom store which shares the same shop space as k-ki. It sells many knick-knacks.

The 2 flavours which I took away were Antoinette (left) and Praline (right). Pointless for me to dine in for 2 macarons and
to pay for the Gst and service charge! Look at its thickness! The filling was so thick! Anyway, Praline was actually hazelnut. Sandwiched between the sugary flavoured shells, the filling contained bits of hazelnut chunks which added to the crunch. I felt like I was eating a cookie for a moment or two as I nibbled it, enjoying the nutty richness.
Antoinette, as expected shared the almost similar taste to the cake which I have tried before. The sense of familiarity hit
me hard and made me recalled how I really enjoyed the cake previously. Tasted of earl grey and chocolate which
matched so well, I bit further in to find its centre concealing a small pool of raspberry jam! (Just like the cake, only that
this time the jam was well hidden and appeared unexpectedly.)

Tsa ordered The Pique Nique Classique. The burger bun was really good. The skin was slightly crisp and the bun was
fragrant and soft. It sandwiched a beef patty (that was evenly and thinly coated with aged cheddar cheese), ketchup,
tomato, lettuce, onion and mustard. The fries were also simple and good even without sauce. It was crispy on the
outside and the potato taste was strong.
As for me, I decided to try out the desserts. I ordered the Ice Cream Profiterole. I did not know what a Profiterole actually
was till I saw it right in front of me. It tasted like buttered bread and its skin was slightly crisp. I also choose butterscotch
sauce which I found slightly too sweet for my liking. The ice cream flavours I had were Peanut Butter and Caramel,
Butterscotch and Malted Milk. I was stunned when I saw that all 3 choices of my ice cream were somehow same in
colour! BROWN or tones of it. Who cares about their colour when their taste is all that matters! A nice burst of flavours
when I ate them bit by bit, savouring the unique flavours which complimented well with the profiterole.

I had the double scoop ice-cream. Stout & Chocolate was addictive! It had a mild stout taste while its bitterness merged
with the chocolate itself. My second scoop was the avocado. It was kind of milky but the avocado taste was not
prominent enough. My friend had the Horlicks Tim Tam. It tasted not bad with crunchy bits of Tim Tam. The Horlicks really felt like vanilla to me.

After our dinner, my friends and I headed to Marvelous Cream for our ice cream indulgence. Among all the 3 ice cream, we all agreed that my choice of the strawberry was best! When I placed a spoon of ice cream into my mouth, I felt a sense of icy chill than instantly refreshed me, while the strawberry flavour slowly crept out after the chill wears off. I loved the small little chunks of banana and strawberry which added more texture to the smooth ice cream. However, the sad thing was that the ice cream always finish much earlier than the waffle basket. 2 of my friends shared the chocolate flavour, with banana chunks and chocolate sauce. A rather chocolaty mix which I got sicked of over time. The ice cream really melted rather quickly as by the time I took the picture, it was already in that melty I-don't-let-you-take (picture of me) state. The other 2 friends also shared the chocolate ice cream with milo powder and chocolate bits. Another rather thick and fudgy mixture and no wonder they kept digging into my not-as-sinful strawberry ice cream!
