Found this place by chance and decided to try because it had pretty desserts and a nice atmosphere. Had the TART (lime and almond), which was not too sour or sweet and had a lightness to it. The ice cream to accompany it was very light, flavourful and refreshing as well. We had also noticed that the desserts (other than croissants) were all "freshly assembled", which added a nice touch, though it took a slightly longer time.

Remembered trying the chocolate drink sometime back, but decided to give the treats another try since we missed it the first time around and it was famed for that.
Came by on a weekday afternoon and we managed to get a seat upon entry (note that it closes at 7pm, might miss it for dinner).
Mocha was skewed towards the chocolate side, which I do prefer since it gives a sweeter and fragrant note to the drink 👍🏻
The lychee oolong tea was really top notch too, had a really strong lychee smell to things, and when adopting the Chinese methodology of 3 gulps per sip, it really enhances the taste of the drink!
*They do offer free refills too! And the second cup still taste and smell as good 😊
The lime tart was really awesome too, at $10, I had really high expectations and it was definitely met 🤤 the sour tone on both the tart and sorbet came really well together, whilst not being overbearing, definitely a good ratio on the line across the dish.
Will definitely look to try their other sweet treats in our future visit!
Another day exploring a cafe in the west, which is rare btw. They are accessible even by public transport, a bus from JE interchange can bring you to a bus stop nearby and you'll just have to walk a little bit.
Their store design is rather quiet with white and wood. Simplistic design overall. I think they kept the flooring from the previous owner so it added a hint of nostalgia to the place.
Pastries/Cakes/Tarts available for the day are displayed beside the counter. Initially, I was taken aback by the price tag but it was a pleasant surprise that the desserts came with a small scoop of ice cream at the side that complements well.
Westies definitely should try!
