Chopped tuna belly don that my sis had


The pretty dessert that came with my sis's meal. Mochi with adzuki beans with fruits


After lunch, I still met up with KL for desserts at Robertson Quay. We headed to the chocolate factory. We were sitting outside cause it just rained and it was a quiet and cooling spot to sit down and chat. We ordered two cakes to share- an apple crumble tart and a chocolate truffle cake. The apple crumble was just so-so. I found it a little too sweet. It was slightly better with the vanilla ice cream. But then again, I don't think that the ice cream was fantastic. The chocolate cake, on the other hand, was really quite nice. Richly chocolate and moist enough. And the raspberry sauce really complemented it.

Tea at the chocolate factory- french vanilla sencha and chocolate truffle cake with a glazed dried apricot. It's the first time I've seen dried apricot on cakes!

The sugar cube that K almost mistook for a breadcrumb
