Yay, I'm happy! I'm finally clearing most of the stuff that I had uploaded a while back. I feel SO accomplished!
Hmm, I remember this day at Vivocity because I drove there! And by the time I got out, the parking charges were about $10. And there was a percussion competition organised by NTU in which me and sis saw a few friends there, surprisingly.
Hillary Cafe on the first storey of Vivo. Quite a quaint little place with pretty interesting decor. At least to me, its appealing. Not hard to see why right? Thats the menu. Hot pink! xpr and kutu will probably love the menu and try to steal it back, if not for them being a little cowardly. Intently studying the menu
Oh, and I didn't mention that this place was somewhat themed around tarot readings and some aura reading thing. The 'table-mat' was like that.
And there was a book with some details of the aura thing and telling people what are the suitable kind of food for each different aura.
They had this huge Egyptian mask hanging over the door inside the store. So cool!
Already had our lunch at Marche, we were there only for desserts.
This was banana chocolate cake ordered by the sister. I don't usually order chocolate cakes as most of them are pretty dry and the taste gets monotonous after some time but this was different! The banana taste blended very well with the chocolate cake as they didn't use banana essence. They used real banana bits. So while we were eating the cake, we could taste the banana bits too and it wasn't dry at all! Nice!
Oh, and the cute butterfly plate and huge strawberry on top of the cake added alot of points to it too.
Shaved iced with mango. We concluded that the shop was opened by Taiwanese as the waitresses were sort of dressed in maid costumes, though not as blatant as in Japan. And this shaved iced is very fine and yummy too. Melts in your mouth immediately! Think I had something like that in Taiwan too and I think its pretty comparable.
We were like 2 cuckoos lah, trying to take photos of their decorations in the shop. Oh, and did I mention that of all days, I didn't bring my camera on that day. All photos are courtesy of my trusty Samsung phone. :)
Contented, I guess.
Finished everything right down to the last bit.
The chairs and inner decor.
I think it is quite a nice place to go to, with great decor and pretty decent desserts. Not sure about the main courses though. I was more intrigued by their theme and more attracted by the mysterious aura they tried to portray with the tarot and aura reading service. Apparently, you got to make an appointment with the 'reader' beforehand, and its not free. Boohoo.
