2013-08-03
Want to try nydc's new desserts for FREE?? You can! Read on to find out how you can win dining vouchers! Admit it - when you go to nydc the first thing you look at is the desserts menu. We don’t blame you. Ever since the restaurant opened their very first outlet in Singapore 18 years ago, they have made a name for themselves because of their delectable desserts which bring to the city a piece of the Big Apple (New York). Over the years, the restaurant has revamped their menu a couple of times to include more choices– but one thing has remained the same – desserts are their strongest forte. For the latest menu update, they have gone back to their roots and made these the main highlights. Executive Chef Riku Lek has also whipped up new creations to add to their iconic mudpies, cheesecakes, and famous Elephanccino drinks. Delectable Creations for the Sweet Tooth

For cheesecake creations, the must-tries are Ally’s New York Cheesecake ($6.80/slice) which is made of authentic Philadelphia cream and graham crackers and nydc’s all-time best seller - Ode To My Cheesecake ($6.80/slice). Small Plates, Big Plates – You Decide! There are also new offerings for the savoury items at nydc, which are divided into small plates and big plates. Whether you plan to eat alone or with a bunch of friends, you can order based on how big yours is.

Some new additions to the small plates menu are the Cajun-flavoured Saucy Southern Chicks ($8.80 for 6pcs/$14.80 for 12pcs) and the Lolli Pork Ribs ($9.80 for 4pcs).
