A for Antoniette

I was looking for a place that serves great afternoon tea, and after hearing all the rave reviews about Antoinette, I was intrigued to check it out. We chose to try the branch at Mandarin Gallery (there's another one at Lavender)! The interior was especially lavish and I really love how the whole place is done up. Exquisite and aristocratic - just the way I like it! The menu includes a small list of brunch options, followed by many other tantalising sounding desserts. Oooo wish I could try them all!!

What we ordered - Nougatine icecream with crepes filled with nutella and some chantilly at the sides! Sounds rich doesn't it? It certainly got a litte gelat even with two people sharing it, but it was delightful! Love this! It'll probably be better with more people sharing it.

Dish #2 is a brunch item. I can't remember the full name but essentially, it's scrambled eggs with ham and tomato sauce. Doesn't sound so tempting, but this is really really nice! If I'm not wrong it's the pricest item on the brunch list, but it's definitely good!

After our really late lunch / afternoon tea, we headed back to the East to celebrate Deborah's birthday. We wanted to check out some other cafe at Changi V but because of the rain, we settled for something at Ehub instead! Food was really meh..... but..... I guess better than bad!

Love this strawberry shortcake! Yanna recommended the bakery, Rive Gauche and the cakes are amazing! They come in various sizes as well so it'll cater to a smaller group/people who are having this right after a heavy dinner. The cake tasted so light and refreshing. A good way to end off the meal :)
