Hatter Street | Hougang

There was much hype about Hatter Street especially of their Waffle with Pandan Ice Cream & Gula Melaka sauce. 

Hatter Street is a small, whimsical cafe in the heartlands- Hougang/Kovan. It is situated a few doors away from the famous thai place- Nakhon Thai. The cafe's deco takes inspiration from one of my favourite tales Alice in Wonderland. 

My trip there was specially made to try the famous waffles that was seen on many instagram pages. I am a creature of habit and my usual flavours would probably revolve ard strawberry, vanilla, salted caramel. Choosing pandan x gula melaka sauce over vanilla x salted caramel sauce was definitely a first. I was hesitant but I just had to find out what the hype was about. My decision was not a wasted one. The pandan ice cream went very well with the gula melaka. The waffle was cripsy though I wish it would be tad bit fluffy but overall, there was just that right blend of flavour that I wanted more. I felt warm and contented with each bite. Latte was alright, slightly on the acidic side. 

This is a nice spot to spend a lazy noon I would say. They hold private events and parties as well so check their fb page before you head down. 

Look out for a craft post coming up over the weekend! Its one day to TGIF!

Kam Jia Zhuang Seafood & November8 Cafe | Thomson V Two

Just another Sunday where nothing much is really going on after Church. I decided to attempt to learn swimming. Concluded that swimming is really easily if you learn it as a kid. 

Then the very spontaneous gathering with dinner with husband's friends and we found ourselves at a very delish chinese tze char place where you need reservations to secure a table. It not quite a restaurant but a stall in a coffee shop. We got ourselves a pretty small table but we made do. 

Ordered 5 dishes to share, out of which these few items were a bomb! 

(This is so good, pumpkin butter prawn balls.)

(Another favourite- Marmite Honey Chicken!)

          (Their signature beancurd)

We ordered the century egg/ salted egg veg and this other prawn egg as well. All the dishes were really good! It was definitely worth the trip. We paid about $50 plus for all including rice.

Decided to pop by Thomson area to carry on with all that catching up. Haven't been inside Thomson V two and so convinced the rest to go exploring. Ended up at November8, loved that they opened till 11pm on weekends! 

Loved the old school chairs!

We shared a strawberry waffle (they ran out of peaches) and a slice of rainbow cake. Rainbow cake was alright, nothing spectacular but liked that it wasn't too sweet. The waffles were really good, crispy on the outside, fluffy on the inside. It was polished off rather quickly. I would really like to come back and give their brunch a try. I saw the chef doing scrambled eggs and it looks really delightful! 

The only downside would be the smell in the cafe. I came out smelling a little unpleasant haha! Maybe the ventilation might need some fixing.

My sunday ended on a delicious note!
