The Cheesecake Cafe (II)

This is our second time at The Cheesecake Cafe!
Photography is not allowed so we didn't take any pictures of the cafe this time round but we did take a few the previous time! You can check out our previous blog post on The Cheesecake Cafe! X and I both love the decor of the place. Intricately designed and painstakingly decorated, The Cheesecake Cafe is definitely not a cafe you want to miss! Especially if you're a fan of cheesecakes!


Chocolate Brownie Cheesecake -$ 7.80
Thick creamy cheese topped with a layer of smooth chocolate, with soft bite-sized brownies.
I definitely preferred this to the American cheesecake and the Peach Jelly one!

Chocolate Truffle - $7.50
There are raisins in the cake so I took them out haha. The chocolate truffle cake was extremely smooth and every bite melted so delicately in our mouths. So so good!

The Cheesecake Cafe does live up to its name, as it carries one of the best cheesecakes in town! However, do give the other cakes a shot too! They might just surprise you like how the chocolate truffle cake surprised us!

The Coastal Settlement

In the last post I mentioned that X said we would celebrate Valentines' day on that coming Saturday. So this was where he brought me after we watched Wicked!

The Coastal Settlement.
I fell in love with this place.

It's a long drive away, especially when we stay in the West. But it was definitely worth travelling for.
Pretty in the day, and prettier at night.


Parking lots are available in the compound.


This is the only path that leads into the restaurant. It allows you to see the beautiful exterior of the restaurant!

Cute menus

The Coastal Settlement is extremely carefully designed with great efforts. Every corner is filled with vintage items and pieces that will wow you. From vintage motorbikes to a bmw, chairs and chains hanging on the ceiling, wooden furniture and telephones from the past, this place is AMAZING.

I'll let the photos do the talking!











Eiffel beer tower! Order a tower of beer and your beverage will be presented in this cute iconic tower!






Functional drawers used to keep cutlery


Incredible.
















Wild Mushroom soup - $14
Soup was thick and the taste of mushroom is strong but not overwhelming
There are a few types of mushrooms in the soup.
The truffle drops were a perfect addition to the soup, making you drool even before you taste the soup as it's sooo fragrant.

We really liked it


Truffle mushroom fettuccine - $21
Sauteed wild mushrooms, Enoki mushrooms, creamy truffle sauce, white wine reduction, shaved parmesan, fresh chives.

After the mushroom soup, this dish was a mushroom overload for me. Haha
It's fragrant and the fettuccine was well-cooked.
The mushrooms were juicy and full of flavour.
However, I felt that the dish was lacking a little in its taste.
Although its a cream-based dish, you won't really get sick of it!




Cheese burger - $26
Wagyu beef patty, melted smoke cheddar cheese, sliced mushrooms, bacon strips, mesclun salad, fries

Just look at that, doesn't it make you hungry!

As usual, X ordered the burger... Haha but I must agree that he made the right choice this time round. The patty was juicy and tasty! I really liked it. Also, the burger had everything! Bacon, mushrooms, onions, tomatoes. The taste of everything together was really good according to him. Haha the burger is pretty huge and posed quite a challenge hahaha but X enjoyed his burger and the fat fries




When night falls,





Entrance


Gorgeous.




CUTE CARRR





Really really amazing, and breathtaking.
Remind me again why I should shift to the east?

So happy that X brought me here! I love vintagey things and I had fun exploring the whole place and looking at everything. I can't think of any reason why anyone wouldnt love it here. On top of its beauty, service is excellent. The staff were very attentive and they asked us how our food was. I like their warm attitude and the effort they took to make sure our time there was enjoyable and pleasant.

Looking for a place to impress your date? This is certainly the place. This is definitely one of the prettiest restaurants in Singapore.

De La Creme

Nestled in the heart of Siglap and Frankel Estate is De La Creme. A hidden gem not too faraway from the bustling East Coast Road. The Star managed to park his car along a road near De La Creme and we made our way swiftly to the surprise destination that he had planned(yes, again haha)





We were greeted with warm smiles and friendly service when we entered the shop.







Their current selection of cakes. They're coming up with more creations!



Mogador

When I first saw the Mogador, I was pretty sure I wanted that until I read that there was raspberry inside ):

So I took a look at the rest

1) Mont Blanc, a cake topped with chestnut cream. (Their newest addition)
2) Ispahan, it looks really amazing.Think raspberries, rose macaron shell and lychees
3) Mango Shortcake
4) Lemon Meringue Tart


After a long while, I decided on the Lemon Meringue Tart. To be honest, I didn't have high expectations of it.



Here's my lemon meringue tart which surprised me. The meringue was really delectable. It wasn't too sweet like other meringues and the texture was really amazing. Digging my fork into the tart, I realised that there is a layer of hard crust as its border and the inside is incredibly soft. The stark contrast was pleasant. Next up, I tackled the lemon curd waiting patiently for me. The lemon curd is refreshingly sour with just the right amount of sweet ring to it. Never thought I'd fall in love with a meringue tart but I did.

The Mogador was impressive. The smooth chocolate mousse and ganache melts right in your mouth and at that moment you'll just go "hmmmm" Haha. It was really delicious! I really liked it. It's a pity that there's raspberry inside as I don't take berries. The Star was sweet enough to choose the Mogador as he knew that I'd want to try the chocolate [: Hehe.

Another thing I'll like to highlight about De La Creme is the service crew! They took time to explain to us what the different cakes contain and personally came over to our table to ask how the cakes were and such. They were constantly smiling and were friendly throughout our entire visit. Such lovely people (:

De La Creme has been around for only 3 months but they have surely made a mark for themselves. Their delicious macarons and cakes have attracted many and gained them lots of fans. You would think that they only serve sweet things like cakes and macarons but they have brunch too! I'll love to try their brunch out except for the fact that Siglap is really far away ):

Do check out De La Creme and let us know what you think!

Coccogelo

Call me a glutton if you want but I insisted on going to Coccogelo after Pave hahaha. Well, its one of the rare times that The Star and I head to the east so we had to grab the chance don't we! Haha. 






Cute cupboard with pretty accessories


They have interesting flavours and I wasn't sure which one I wanted even after trying a few of them.

The grape yakult tasted just like yakult haha.


I picked the banana timtam and coffee in the end!

 

Pretty good gelato and pretty good place to catch up with your friends! Interesting flavours too. I thought the timtam and banana was quite an unique mix which was surprisingly delightful! I love anything coffee so the coffee gelato was good with me. The staff were friendly and nice! Oh and the prices are really affordable too [: The Star didn't eat much because he was too full HAHA. Yes I know I'm a glutton..

Do visit Coccogelo for interesting, unique and yummy gelato!
