The Patissier
#01-01, 4 Mohamed Sultan Road
6737 3369

This visit was totally unplanned. Halfway through the curtains shopping trip, we passed by this bakery which has been featured in the papers quite a few times. I've already known which cake I wanted (the mango meringue!) even before I stepped in. Sadly, it was already sold out and there were not many cakes left as it was closing time soon.

Trusting the words of the staff manning the counter, I picked Strawberry Cognac ($7) over Green Tea Bavarian. I was pleased that the taste of cognac and strawberry puree was distinct in the layers of sponge sandwiching smooth mascarpone mousse. This was great as an after lunch treat since it was very light.

Without doubt, I'll definitely be back since I want to try the mango meringue very very much!

WELCOME!

In ancient Greek mythology, sirens are creatures which have the body of a bird and the head of a woman. They have such sweet voices that sailors who heard their songs were lured into grounding their boats on the rocks on which the nymphs sang.

To me, food are like the sirens in so many ways. Intoxicating, wonderful, beautiful and yet, so very deadly if you let them get the better of you. Food is a big part of my life and it’s meant to be appreciated and savored slowly. I admit that I am extremely particular about what I eat. If it’s not something I want to put in my body, I’d rather not eat. Some people eat to live while others live to eat. I’ve yet to discover which side of the camp I’m in… What about you?

I hope that you will enjoy reading about my food adventures as much as I like writing them. And many thanks to my family and friends who always wait patiently for me to take photos before digging in!
