Afternoon Cake at Drips Bakery Cafe
A little while ago, I met Daniel from Daniel’s Food Diary for an afternoon cake as he was looking for friends to have cake with him as part of his birthday plan this year. I thought since I’ve not met him for a while, why not give him a birthday treat instead? Hence, I suggested that we visit 40 Hands Coffee but we settled for Drips Bakery Cafe as he wanted to try this new place in the vicinity of the quint old neighbourhood of Tiong Bahru.
According to Daniel, the previous time he visited 40 Hands Coffee, it was very disappointing as most of the items were sold out and the manners of the staffs were rude. Although it has been highly raved by a number of media, I’ve not been there so it’s up to you to decide for yourself. 
Alright, coming back to Drips Bakery Cafe, they have quite a number of tarts and cakes on display in the chiller when we enter the cafe. They have cookies too but since it’s Daniel’s birthday cake treat, we settled for some tarts as it looks really good.
The Mixed Fruit Tart had generous bits of blueberries and kiwis on it! The round tart had a firm crust with a nice layer of cream cheese at the bottom.
I ordered some Ugly Cakes for a Good Cause!
A few days ago, I bought some delicious cakes from Lisa Tan (@thelittlebowl) who started her online cake business known as The Ugly Cake Shop. She is known as an avid baker and I was surprised that she calls her cakes ugly. Anyway, most pretty looking cakes contains colouring, fondant, gum paste or marzipan that are bad for the health.
Lending my support to her new business, I ordered a batch of her signature Kamski (Lemon Drizzle Cake) and Maria (Chocolate Fudge Brownies) to try. You must be wondering what’s with those names that sound like they are taken from IKEA furniture store. In fact, all these goodies were named after Lisa’s loved ones!

Marriott Hotel Singapore Lobby Lounge, Relaxing Afternoon Tea
This post is dedicated to fellow foodie, Keropok Man, who was married to his lovely wife yesterday. Congratulations!
Nothing beats indulging on lovely cakes and sipping on a cuppa refreshing drink after a long day of shopping along Orchard Road. However, it was just a lazy afternoon chilling away for these two “shao ye” (male version of taitai). I met Keropok Man after lunch as both of us happened to be at ION Orchard and we headed to Marriott Hotel for afternoon tea.
