Situated in the 74-hectare Singapore Botanic Gardens, Food For Thought is a huge cafe suitable for any large groups hangout. I arrived at the restaurant on a Sunday afternoon after getting lost in the Botanic Gardens trying to locate the cafe because I took the MRT to Botanic Gardens Circle Line station. In the end, I had to take a taxi just to travel to the other end of the park. Also, the cafe is located on B1 (Basement 1), so do pay attention very carefully! The Food For Thought cafe in Botanic...

#8 Creamier Review
Creamier is a handcrafted ice cream & coffee shop located under a HDB block in the housing estate of Braddell/Toa Payoh. If you are travelling to Creamier via public transport, the nearest MRT station would be Braddell and not Toa Payoh. I arrived at the cafe at 3pm on a weekend afternoon and it was pretty crowded. As there was quite a limited amount of tables provided, you might have to grab a seat with someone else. The cafe serves a wide selection of ice cream ranging from common flavour like Cookies & Cream...

#7 The Coffee Daily Review
The Coffee Daily is situated at 75 Brighton Crescent, a 10 minutes walk away from the popular food district of Serangoon Gardens where Chomp Chomp Food Centre and Serangoon Garden Market & Food Centre are. I entered the cafe at around 8pm on a Friday night and was greeted with a wide range and colourful display of cakes! From their famous Rainbow Cake to Summer Berries Yogurt Tart. Since I've tried a few Red Velvet Cake from different cafes around Singapore, I decided to try The Coffee Daily's version of it. The Red Velvet...

#6 Strangers' Reunion Review
Strangers' Reunion is located at 37 Kampong Bahru Road and was opened by Singapore National Barista Championship winner Ryan Tan. I have actually been to the cafe twice, once in November 2013, and another just recently. When I first went to the cafe, their menu was particularly limited since they only served the all-day breakfast set till 5pm. Their coffee was fantastic, but the Fried Chicken Breast sandwich which I've ordered wasn't that delicious, neither did the chilli sauce nor the asian vegetable brings along anything special to the sandwich. The service from...

#5 Quarter to Three Review
Quarter to Three is located along the street of shophouses at Tanjong Pagar Road. The cafe is a short walk away from the nearest Tanjong Pagar MRT Station. I arrived at the cafe at around 2pm and the cafe was generally empty at that period of time. But what greeted me when I entered the shop was their huge wooden table, which thus means that a large group of friends would not be having a hard time squeezing at a small table compared to several other cafes. I had an Iced Vanilla ($5.90)...

#4 Necessary Provisions Review
Amongst the generally populated residential estate at Bukit Timah lies a lovely cafe, Necessary Provisions. We arrived at the cafe at around 7pm on a Friday night and it was somewhat crowded, so we had to share the table with a couple (not to worry though, the table is huge enough. You could even read some magazines and eat at the same time). We looked through the menu and ordered Buta Don ($8) and Bucatini Grilled Prawn Cherry Tomatoes and Basil Pasta ($14). Because the food needs time to prepare, the waitress actually served us...

#3 Lola's Cafe Review
Lola's Cafe is a rather brand new cafe which opened just a few months back. Located at 5 Simon Road, the best bet will be to drive there. Nonetheless, you could take a walk from the nearest Kovan MRT Station as well. Lola's Cafe serves brunch from 10am-3pm. Dinner menu begins at 6pm and ends at 10pm. If you are not a fan of all-day breakfast set, fret not! They have tons of snacks, drinks and delicious desserts for you. I had their Avocado Eggs Benedict ($15) as well as their Sunny-side Stacked...

#2 Dong Po Colonial Cafe Review
I first heard of Dong Po Colonial Cafe on instagram and found out they are the only few cafes in Singapore which serves old school cakes and pastries. The cafe is located at Kandahar Street and it may take quite a bit of effort if you are walking to the cafe from the nearest Bugis MRT Station. That said, be prepared to get sunk in with the nostalgia and vibrant decorations in the cafe (including their tables)! Moving on to the food, I had a Apple Aloe Slice Cake ($2.20) and was blown away by it's...

#1 Flock Café Review
I've recently dropped by Flock Café for brunch. Flock Café is located at Moh Guan Terrace (Tiong Bahru Estate), which also happens to have a few other cafes around the area. They serve all day breakfast, sandwiches, pastries and pasta (*only on weekdays). Their menu is rather simple, so making a decision is rather easy. First up! Flock's Scrambled Eggs & Toast ($7.50) + additional add-ons of Sausages ($3.50). The toast and scrambled eggs were pretty alright, there are definitely better scrambled eggs elsewhere! Sausages however were pretty tasty. Next, the Pancakes & Mixed Berries...
