Finally decided to try PS Cafe! PS Cafe has a really nice cafe setting -really chill but chic as well. The menu is written on chalk on the walls/glass and I thought that was a pretty interesting touch although to me it was more for the decor and interior feel of the cafe more than for utility (way too messy to rely on!) The cafe has matted black tables with French-cafe style chairs, and did I mention I really like the customised coasters and napkins with the 'Ps Cafe' scrawled over it. Also, eac
The cafe has matted black tables with French-cafe style chairs, and did I mention I really like the customised coasters and napkins with the 'Ps Cafe' scrawled over it. Also, each table came with a glass of sugar cubes and a fresh vase of (FRESH!) red flowers. Such a sweet touch!
Ordered a Sticky Date Pudding @ $14.90 (defo must must must try!!!) and the new dessert that they launched -Lavender Lamington ($7.50). I've always been skeptical of lamingtons because people usually mess up the coconut to cake ratio resulting in something tasting overly coconut-y and not balancing the flavour and texture well enough. However, i was pleasantly surprised here. The Lavender Lamington was cold, served on a warmed plate, dusted with just the right amount of coconut.
It had a delicate lavender flavour that I recalled trying before in various lavender-infused foods in Aussie. It reminded me of endless lavender fields and the farmhouses that sold lavender products. Very nice. The cake was warm and was layered with jam and cream (?), whatever it was, it complemented the lavender well. The dusted coconut gave the cake a delicate touch + extra texture, which made it even more unique and interesting. It wasn't easy to balance such delicate tastes of lavender into a relatively dense cake. But I think they did it well and exceeded my expectations.
The sticky date pudding is by far, the best sticky date pudding I've eaten in Singapore. It is completely drenched in a toffee like salted-caramel syrup, which is deliciously GLORIOUS. The sticky date pudding is just the right consistency, not too puddingy, somewhat cake-like but denser and richer, and topped with a beautiful scoop of vanilla ice cream and a sprig of mint. The mint really elevates this dish, and it's sharp twist is refreshing with the sweet sauce. I'd suggest you share this though, as it would be a bit cloying to have by yourself (all by your glorious, glorious self!!!!), and it would not be advisable to eat this as a dessert if you've just had a full meal. Don't spoil this experience for yourself... have it for tea, or after a light dinner. It's worth every drop of the sinful stickiness and really, the sweetness of the sauce is a perfect complement.The iced water served at PS Cafe is infused with god-knows-what but it tastes really good. Inside the jar I caught sight of a lot of mint, and some other herbs(?) fruit(?) vegetable(?????). The water itself tastes unique and it really made the experience all the more pleasant. Service was also attentive and brisk. Price wise it's honestly on the steep side, but I will definitely go back for my fifteen-dollar pudding.
