Yat Ka Yan Dessert @ Fortune Centre, Middle Road – Family-Run Business with Old-School Desserts

Leave a comment

A family that cooks together, stays together. Or so the saying goes. With its old-school and understated setup, Yat Ka Yan Dessert may look like one of those multi-generational eateries that have been churning out beloved specialities for years. On the contrary, it was actually opened only four years ago by the Tang family, as a sister eatery to Ren Ren Desserts. 

Don’t estimate it, though, as this is one popular place whose nostalgic desserts and homely interior draws snaking queues, to its premises in Fortune Centre, especially on the weekends.

NOWAFTER Cafe @ Design Orchard, Orchard Road – Another Minimalist, Korean-Inspired Cafe Opens in Orchard Road

Leave a comment

Until today, I still can’t quite wrap my head around what makes a cafe Korean-inspired. Is it the distinctly minimalist interior or a menu that bears a striking resemblance to one of the many scattered across Seoul? 

With that said, it’s time to strike another Korean-inspired cafe off the list with today’s visit to NOWAFTER Cafe, a new joint that opened on the third level of Design Orchard this month.

Leave a comment

Update 19 Jan 2025: Le Matin Patisserie has closed. Follow their Instagram for their upcoming popups.

As a food blogger, there’s nothing I love more than seeing places I’ve reviewed grow and become more and more successful. From baked boxes to order during the 2020 Circuit Breaker to its experimental kitchen in a far-flung estate and finally, a sophisticated new home in ION Orchard, Le Matin Patisserie has certainly come a long way.

[MOVED] 46 Mittsu @ Everton Park, Outram Park – HDB Joint Serving Thicc Sandos and Good Vibes

Leave a comment

Update 19 Jan 2025: 46 Mittsu has moved to North Canal Road and re-branded to Go Rogue

I have a love-hate relationship with sandos. On one hand, they’re crazy delicious and stuffed to the brim with flavourful ingredients. On the other hand, I’ve never had a sando eating experience that did not end in a handful of ingredients spilling from two slices of bread gallantly holding it all together. 

And yet, like after every messy break in between a tumultuous, yet addictive relationship, I find myself going back for more. Today’s trip against better judgement is to 46 Mittsu, a sando kiosk tucked away in Everton Park.
