Some Vegan Options

Often has a queue for seats, but nonetheless the ambience is quite good and not as noisy as the CHIJMES outlet. Been here a couple of times with non-veg folks, good place for chatting~ There is quite a number of vegan options such as parfait and gelato (sadly many of the vegan cakes and tarts have been removed). Conveniently located near Somerset MRT.

Delicate and decadent, top notch desserts and pastries

I really loved the matcha mont blanc - the vegan cream is so good, the matcha is high quality. I also love the flaky, buttery custard danish. So good!

Great desserts & tea

Custard Danish -
This is so good!! It was served warm and flaky with a nice fragrance when you bite into it. It also has a slight crunch to its texture. The sweetness of the vegan custard is just perfect, and has a very creamy texture too that just melts in your mouth!

Matcha Mont Blanc -
The matcha flavor was really strong and rich, with the smooth cream inside. Was surprised by how rich the matcha flavor is. Thankfully, it's not overly sweet as the bitterness and fragrance of the matcha help bring a nice balance to the sweetness.

1925 -
Their house blend oolong, 1925 has a really nice subtle sweetness and fragrance in it's aftertaste that's very refreshing. A very good option to pair it with their pastries/cakes!

Pros: A lot of vegan options, Amazing desserts and tea, Cosy and chill environment
