I am very surprised that COVA is brought in by Wing Tai, which usually deals with clothing. Nevertheless, I am impressed by the following description that I gathered from Wing Tai’s website:“COVA Pasticceria - Confetteria, is the first premium F&B venture by Wing Tai Branded Lifestyle Pte Ltd, a subsidiary of Wing Tai Retail. Its heritage dates back to 1817 when it was founded in Milan by Antonio Cova. Specializing in coffee, pastries, cakes and chocolates, COVA’s finest delights have stood the
“COVA Pasticceria - Confetteria, is the first premium F&B venture by Wing Tai Branded Lifestyle Pte Ltd, a subsidiary of Wing Tai Retail. Its heritage dates back to 1817 when it was founded in Milan by Antonio Cova. Specializing in coffee, pastries, cakes and chocolates, COVA’s finest delights have stood the test of time for over 190 years.
COVA’s specialties include its wide array of pastries, cakes, breads and cookies which are freshly baked every morning and ready to serve at 9.00 am for breakfast. Its hand-made COVA pralines and chocolates which are produced with only cocoa butter, ensues natural and genuine masterpieces of pure artisan chocolate delight, directly from COVA Milan and COVA’s premium quality coffee blend that is made up of seven kinds of Arabica blends from the finest plantations in Central America and Brazil.”
I am not an expert when it comes to dessert but an average person will also be able to taste the difference between a quality and poor one. ;p COVA takes over the location where Dome used to be and has a seating capacity for about 100 customers (I did a quick estimation while waiting for food). There are two main sections – tea room and open concept café. I prefer the tea room where lovely desserts are displayed in front of us and it’s cosier. With kids running outside, open concept café is a no-no for us. Great care and efforts are put into the details for the ambiance, decorations and furniture. Even wooden shelves look classy! There is a corner for sale of cookies, sweets, coffee powder and tea leaves.This is a good place for dating, socializing and get together. Erm, only if one don’t look at the prices. Lol ~ definitely more expensive than the usual TCC, Coffee Bean and etc that most of us visit … But COVA is so much better than the usual cafes … and so does the ‘prices’ ;p We are truly very blessed with vouchers given from a colleague … hehe, that entitled us for a free slice of cake and drink each ~
We have had a slice of chocolate cake and mango cake. Both are fabulous! The texture of cake is so soft and not lumpy; literally melts in my mouth. And with the romantic ambiance, I am totally won over.
