Note: The photos below are for weekend dinner buffet just for your reference. 





























 Overall Impression: Try to avoid this outlet at Dhoby Ghaut Green as the sofa seats by the window were all cracked or try to take those non-window seats. Plates were cleared regularly. The charcoal grilled items were quite good. The rest of the items were decent quality.  The ambience and the food quality is not on par with their price.

Dazzling Cafe (15 Stamford Road, #01-85 Capitol Piazza, Singapore 178906) Reservation: 6384 3310

Visited on 1st June 2015 - Public Holiday (Mon).


Dazzling Cafe is one of the most famous cafes in Taiwan and is commonly frequented by celebrities and socialites that has been crowned as "A Celebrity Hotspot." They're famed for their signature Traditional Honey Toasts with a modern twist. 

I love the chic interior in my favourite Turquoise! I'm sure this place will be a hotspot for many youngsters daily!





We were seated at one of those tables in front of the beverages counter which I think it's very cramped and no privacy as we can overheard each other conversation easily. If there's a choice, avoid the seats here...



This is their beverages counter. The waitresses were in milkmaid uniform!




Remember to look at this enchanting starry ceiling!




These are the seats inside which I think is more cosy...



There were seats on the mezzanine too that you can bathe in natural daylight!




All the seats with bunny ears are occupied fast most of the time!








Beverages Menu


Brulee Tea with Milk (Pot for 1 Person) $8++
I like the aromatic milk tea, something like creme brulee but it was a tad overly sweet.





Does this matcha toast looks like a X'mas Tree? All in green with a matcha macaron! Haha.. 


There were 3 slices of toasts. The waitress will offer to help you to move the whole cream with 1 toast to the side and use a knife to slice the toast for you and unveil the toast cubes shown in above photo. The matcha ice-cream was hidden inside the cream. They will then serve you a cube of each flavour and topped with the cream + ice-cream as shown in the below photo. The edges of the toast was very tough so I guessed it's probably just for display, not meant to be eaten. 




Tip: Try not to order this hazelnut chocolate and matcha honey toast together as both were more or less the same taste and the cream was very sweet. You will get sick of it easily halfway....



Other Honey Toast Selections



  






Overall Impression: The staff were all very young and energetic here! They will greet in chinese "Wu An, Ning Hao" (午安您好) loudly together to boost the atmosphere whenever customers step in. The service here was quite efficient. The presentation of their honey toasts were very unique, probably is the best presentation in Singapore so far. The quality of their matcha and hazelnut chocolate toasts were really good too but overloaded cream! It will make you get fatter faster too! Haha.. 

As we have only 2 pax, we were completely full after trying the two creamy honey toasts and the milk tea. No more stomach space to try their savoury items. I'm glad that they offer wide selection of honey toasts, so that we can always try different toasts whenever we're here. Heard that their mentaiko spaghetti was very popular too, remember to try it! As the prices here are on the high side so this will not be a place that people can patronize frequently.
