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.

Fisherman’s Market, Japanese-Western Seafood Buffet
Recently, new seafood buffet restaurant has arrived on our shores at The Central, which is by the Singapore River. No, the seafood isn’t from our murky river but freshly flown in from South Asia, Australia, North America and around the world. With more than 90 dishes available at this Japanese-Western seafood buffet, I’m sure buffet fans out there will surely be spoiled for choices.
This casual restaurant spreads over two levels and has a total floor space of 10,000 square feet on the first and second level. For buffet fanatics, you will be pampered by their buffet spread on the second level with over 8,000 square feet and a seating capacity of 300 pax. Let’s take a look at some highlights of the food available at the seafood buffet.
