2am: dessert bar is such a popular hang-out spot in Holland Village that it’s quite impossible to get a seat without making prior reservations. We didn’t make any and were told to return the table by 2345. Just 45 minutes? No problem at all. Cuz the desserts were small enough to be polished off within 5 mins flat. The interior looks good, very minimalist and chic but the reclining couches are uncomfortable, especially for girls wearing dresses or worse, mini skirts. This is also a place where on
The interior looks good, very minimalist and chic but the reclining couches are uncomfortable, especially for girls wearing dresses or worse, mini skirts. This is also a place where one can get high on both sugar and alcohol cuz all the so-called designer desserts on the menu are paired with a selection of wines.
I thought of getting Araguani H2O but went for Purple ($14++) at the last minute cuz the latter sounds more exotic. A combination of purple potato puree, blackberry parfait, “leather”, and fruits of the forest sorbet. Though the interplay of textures is interesting, I couldn’t really discern the different flavours for what they are. Should have gone for good old chocolate instead, darn!
Another not-too-wise choice is Strawberries & Sweet Milk ($14++): macerated strawberries, panna cotta, sweet milk gelee, grapefruit marshmallow. Maybe this will be impressive to some but personally, I’m not into panna cotta or sweet milk. Translation: didn’t like this either.
Artfully messed up. Therein lies the “beauty” of deconstructed desserts.
