Shizuoka's caramel & maple- salted "matcha" Pretz

Thursday, October 9   keyboard  


Sunny

Tokyo Banana, be gone! With the premium Japanese snack retailer ShiokJapan currently located at Orchard Central, you can now keep stock of your banana and Shiroi Koibito. 




Glico Pretz Shizuoka Matcha (SGD 4.00) 

Pretz had edamame, Pretz had edamame beer, Pretz had wasabi. Shizuoka is not the person, but a prefecture that promises green tea. After the edamame and sweet matcha, this is the reason he is offering matcha to you.



Why do we need a map to know the place before eating? The land where matcha is their chocolate, broiled, beaten, glazed, sautéed. It is missing if it is not the sweets to add to salt mounds and pretzels. Matcha from Shizuoka, the green is from matcha and the glorious egg yellow is from saffron yellow, exactly how he hands them lime green and lemon yellow Pretz sticks out.

P.S. How about an Ehime orange or Pinkan mikan? The matcha was actually the sweet factor, striking on a salted Pretz background, or perhaps that's Shizuoka matcha.

Ice my co(l)lon- Glico's Collon (ice) Cream Soda

keyboard  


Sunny

 Just us milkin' our favourite drink, Calpis.

Doing the thing with melon soda or Hawaiian-gifted mocktails. The past years there had been a food engineer reassembling snacking, which is the ice. First spotted in Oreo's blueberry ice cream cookie, a telltale sign in Aero Bubbles, and then in Collon's ice cream flavour. Dive into the ingredients, what cold has gotten inside its head?


Glico Hie Shuwa Collon Cream Soda (SGD 3.50)
... L-tartaric acid. Or the acidity regulator. Advent of the umami its tsunami for a new sensation-menthol/mint/airy or the cool?



Perfectly baked Collon-watermarked biscuit, and a citrus smell to the usual Collon strained mousse filling. 

P.S. The cuppa that defined our Japanese dining and merriment of the yesteryears. Do tell me why it is in our colour now. If one hadn't mistaken one would have thought it was in its suspectible blue or turquoise specials. This is because the Japanese are proud of their melon and melon soda.

Live, Laugh, Love, Joy- Y(u)m?-@ DeliJoy

Wednesday, October 8   keyboard  


Sunny


Humble abode, daily rack, we can still afford to have our blue roll dream, or that, or this. 



 Yammy Bun (SGD 0.70)

Crumb of the soft bun as purple as what it is, yam. Like a rabbit with its all-carrot meal, because we are humans we need to have our fix all violet tubers meal. 

 P.S. No wonder there is a certain friendliness to the brand. Delijoy, known for its fluffy buns sending some of the love to the west. Kissing them making them blush or lilac now.

Eni beani mini mo- itsy mini beanie@ Jurong Point

Tuesday, September 30   keyboard  


Sunny

 How many ways are there to eat pancake? Mr Bean commands the water slide and splash fashion, where the dip becomes the filling for an unstuffed Mr Bean pancake, and the topping is the beans of the bean bag. Ever since it poured into Vietnamese coffee, and all-time favourite soya porridge with youtiao, it is no exoticism you are going for beanies at Mr Bean.



 Mr Beans are running amok at the Jurong Point outlet. Pancakes have been morphed into mini beanies, which are downsized version of the usual Mr Bean pancake. They are fried in the cabinet as Mr Bean's pancakes, and there are 2 flavours to choose from to make them less plain. 1 flavour as dipping sauce, the other, topping.

Mini Beanies (Regular) (8 pcs) (SGD 2.90)

 The babies in a regular bento box as pieces of 8. Lookout takeout, a scoop of green tea custard as the dipping sauce side, and a bed of rainbow rice as topping dessert. This is how you'd enjoy a mini beanie.

Poster girl of Mr Bean. They actually pop out alive from the advertisement spread, that means it works. So are the rest of the chili crab, hazelnut chocolate paste, viscous sticky peanut butter, nacho cheese cup, caramel custard pot dipping sauces to talentedly mop your selected yes leftover crumble potato chips, cashew nuts (ice cream bar) crush, oreo or mini roasted buckwheat puffs on healthy cream puffs topping. Just that we haven't tried them out, Mr Bean had sounded it out.

P.S. No wonder they are regulars. There is half of the green tea flavoured custard left after using, enough to spread 2 slices of bread. Mr Bean, why no green tea or green tea custard pancake? Our favourite Mr Bean pancake might be the chili crab, hazelnut chocolate not hazelnut praline or hazelnut royale, peanut butter, nacho cheese pancake. It was difficult to tell whether the Mr Bean's custard brightened up the green tea or vice versa, either way, the custard was delightful and mellow. Of course it is the pellets in the stuffed toy, the toppings that makes it to the cover as Ms/Mr Bean, why the dips had more sweets varieties less was what was illustrated red, pink, orange, yellow, white, green but red, pink, yellow, white, green, blue. That sweetest of all.

Toast is greener on the other side-@ Toast Box

keyboard  


Night

 Not just "greener". But thicker. To an extent it is cuboid/pyramid/cylinder.

Going bananas, bananas gone unripened. Or elusive as the queenly papaya, gem of the hot popular Thai dish. When it is first presents itself in the smorgasbord with orange banana cake, banana cake, chiffon roll. As Toast Box becomes snazzier, along with chee cheong fun and muffin tops atop breakfast staples. 

Pandan Cake (SGD 1.20)

 Instead of butter, help yourself with a lump of chinese/Nanyang vanilla next time. 

The fragrant grass or juicing, kaya is pandan with coconut remember, it appears in local porcelain crucibles brewing kaya jam and soggy eggs, almost impeccable. The cake holds a bounce to it, though the essence of pandan may not be garden-fresh, but sweet.

 P.S. What sums up joyful simplicities. The incessant chatter of pandan\kaya\toast\butter_cream on a plate, new original pandan cake brings us back to the teaone on Toast Box again or this.

Bean('sfan)tastic rainbow mille crepe@ Teddy & Me

Tuesday, September 9   keyboard  


Cloudy

Unicorn and hologram material, that's what is inside the glass capsule. You poke your head around and this cafe perceives Mr. Bean and Teddy as its stars and suns' axis, no wonder there is a sense of uncanniness to it.



Mr. Bean seems to have a fondness for mille crepe cakes. (Piling the sheets up, the audacity to recreate into a cake.) An extent it is mildly eccentric. Trio chocolate mille crepe, who says mille crepe can't be gorgeous ombre gradient cake, 3 in 1 mille crepe, a vanilla, chocolate, strawberry mille crepe, new strawberry mille crepe, french chestnut mille crepe, yam & red bean mille crepe, green tea & red beans mille crepe, roasted peanut & blueberry mille crepe. Teddy is out now?



Beantastic Mille Crepe (SGD 8.80)

It tops up anything else you like, Singapore flag, Hari Raya Haji on the English icons- making it the first livin' up to name wanderlust-confronting British-inspired Mr. Bean cafe opened in Singapore. 



We'd deduce the cake red, orange, yellow, green, blue, pink and purple replacing indigo and violet. However because this is a mille crepe (millefleurs/mille-feuille, chocolate of a thousand leaves) many crepes, as one enjoys the cake one unearths rolls of colour that happens when to be not the 7. The mille crepe cake is dressed the chocolate rainbow cake way, instead of cream cheese rainbow cake, with chocolate sprinkles and berries.  



Each lightly toasted crepe layer comes in vanilla flavour and are separated by cream that is not overtly sweet. Tasting more of mille crepe and less of ?rainbow.

 P.S. Rainbow do not do 7, but in 14 in a mille crepe- red, bright red cream, orange, yellow cream, yellow, equally yellow cream, green, gaspingly blue-green cream, blue, luxe aqua cream, pink, soft pink cream, purple, same pink cream.

 No photo is needed to show how quaint, peculiar, rustic the area is. Well (because) it is Provence Bakery & Cafe(, Petit Provence), we clutch an idea of how it is like, custard, chocolate and kaya, the traffic light(-stopping) colours of wassants, everything you need to know about Provence. 
 

Melon Pan 

It is necessary now because melon pans were suppose to look but not coloured like this. Aping melons in a melon soda, or the result of a Japan meet Hong Kong-distant anpan of yore?

P.S. Adroit hands, how it was passed to the counter was also how your bread tasted like. Lightweight, milky, stretchy, even if no(or less) milk was associated with pans in the first place. Meeting the distinctive chop of wassants or Petit Provence from Japan.
