Food: Would love to visit again =)
The entrance of the cafe has a lovely display window beside it and it seemed all so English and pretty. Besides, the cafe's lovely name just beckoned to me. It made me curious as to what sort of an establishment it is. Consequently, I found out that this cafe is a social enterprise, one that believes in giving back to society. It neither charges GST nor service charge. Thus, when my dad went to give tips in a jar, he realised that it wasn't really tips, it was a well-building fund so that other people can have clean water someday also. The cafe undertakes other social projects as well. A well-conceived idea indeed.
My dad and I ordered Aunty Sandra's Chocolate Malteser cake, a cafe latte and a hot chocolate. The cake was rich, moist and fresh. The bananas generously used in the cake was the taste of sweet freshness. I am not a big fan of banana cakes because they usually use banana essence and very little bananas. But, this cake was very different, the rich taste of the chocolate was made less cloying by the use of fresh slices of bananas. I think I could easily gobble up a few slices of it without getting sick of it. Well, provided my belt doesn't tighten too much, haha...
The hot chocolate was a tad too sweet and the chocolate was nothing fantastic, I have a lurking suspicion that they use Cadbury cocoa powder. Nonetheless, hot chocolate is still one of my favourite beverages for the warm fuzzy feeling it gives to the drinker.
