I love coffee, and I recently got to try these coffee capsules from TAG Espresso (a Singapore homegrown brand) and I have to say, I’m impressed. If you’re someone who enjoys Arabica coffee but also wants to save money, this might be something worth checking out. What makes TAG Espresso…
I've been trying to stay more active lately, especially since I live a rather sedentary life as a software engineer. One of my favourite activities is hiking Bukit Timah Hill with friends. Since the entrance is near Beauty World MRT, cafés in this area are go-to spots for hikers on…
I love Rise Bakehouse , a beautiful café in Singapore with outlets in Orchard, Chinatown, and Potong Pasir! Not only do they specialise in pastries and cakes, but they also serve delicious main dishes and drinks. In fact, this is my fourth visit to the Rise Bakehouse at 111 Somerset,…
I probably wouldn’t have found this place if not for tennis. After a Saturday morning session at ActiveSG stadium in Jurong West, I was craving iced caffe latte. That’s how I ended up at Suzuki Cafe and Roastery, tucked away in an industrial area along Chin Bee Avenue. Surrounded by…
On a Saturday morning after tennis, my friend and I headed to Coexist Coffee Co. in Pasir Panjang for brunch. I’ve visited the Hillview outlet before and really enjoyed the dishes (especially the Thai Krabby Toastie, which was a limited‑time special). Here’s my review of the Hillview outlet: https://www.themorninggazette.org/posts/coexist-coffee-co-hillview .…
KADA is a restored heritage building—once a mission hospital in 1923 —now transformed into a lifestyle space with cafes and shops. Sitting on its rooftop is Alani, a trendy Greek cafe with a colourful interior and a menu featuring pastries and brunch dishes inspired by Mediterranean flavours. Here's what we…
Looking back at my posts, there are many dishes I wouldn't have ordered if I were alone because I'm not that adventurous (what if I order something new and don't like it?!). I'm thankful to have friends who push me out of my comfort zone and try new dishes with…
My friend and I dropped by Breakfast Grill after a hike at Bukit Timah Hill on a sunny weekend morning. It is a popular cafe, and it was pretty crowded. Here's what we ordered: 🐔Cheeky Fella Sandwich Fried juicy thick chicken thigh, scrambled, garlic aioli, ranch\ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️🌟 5/5 Perfectly seasoned,…
A throwback post from March 2025. This was a hidden gem - and I dislike the term because it’s so overused - but this place was literally hidden in an industrial area. It’s not very accessible, tucked away on the 7th floor of an unassuming building. We almost thought we…
Upper Thomson is a haven for coffee lovers, with the area lined with cafés. I’ve previously visited and shared my review of Hello Arigato , and I can’t wait to return to Upper Thomson to try more cafés. This time, we dropped by Columbus Coffee Co for a quick waffle…
A few friends and I visited Hello Arigato Cafe at Upper Thomson. My main dish was so delicious that I couldn't resist documenting it in my blog. Disclaimer: I didn't delve too deeply into my friends' main dishes, so take my overall review with a pinch of salt. The spotlight…
Conveniently located near the Botanic Gardens, this was an ideal spot to pick up brunch before going on a picnic. Here’s our order: 🥧 Sourdough Egg Tarts 💸 SGD 3.50\ ⭐⭐⭐⭐🌟 5/5 This was my favourite! It was especially delicious when served warm. Crispy and gooey in all the right…
I was craving fluffy souffle pancakes and coffee, and immediately thought of this place as I had good souffle pancakes during a previous visit. 🥞 Goes Nuts for Pistachio (Souffle Pancakes) 💸 SGD18.90\ ⭐⭐⭐⭐🌟 5/5 Light and fluffy souffle pancakes drizzled with sweet pistachio cream, served with crunchy pistachio bits…
Rise Bakehouse is a cafe chain with three branches in Singapore. Although they specialise in cakes and small bakes, interestingly, I haven’t tried any of those in my three visits to this Somerset outlet (yet). In fact, I’ve always ordered the dish below on every visit: 🦪 Scallop Rosé Rigatoni…
