Kki @ Ann Siang

I'm trying to post more regularly on my food escapades. In a way, it's good to keep track where all those calories and blubber on your body came from. 

Before Miss Masters scooted off to London for her further studies, we grabbed her for a lunch followed by desserts at Ann Siang Hill.

I've been wanting to try Kki (ケーキ: "cake" in Japanese) for quite some time now. The previous times I dropped by the Little Drom Store (Retro lifestyle store that Kki shares a shop space with), Kki was filled with customers. It's a small place, with only about 5 small tables. 

We were greeted with a fine whiff of batter fragrance when we entered the cafe. The delicious display of cakes made me palpitate with anticipation. I'm not much of a desserts person, but who can resist such delicate presentations of hand-made goodness?



There isn't a wide variety of cakes, but being our first time and not done my due research, we were at a loss as to what to order. We settled on Emily (the red coloured leaf-shaped cake) and the chocolate-coloured dome-shaped cake.

Wrong choice of Emily!!! I had a hard time swallowing it. Miss Masters puts it aptly, it was as though we were eating butter. The dome-shaped cake is tiramisu. Not too bad, but not fantastic.



 Ordered tea to go along with it. All in all, I'm a sucker for such tea places. It's also a plus point that the Little Drom Store sells retro eye candy! Nice to look but not value-for-money to buy if you know of cheaper places. Although the cakes we chose this time were below expectations, I'm eager to visit this place again and give it another go.

Amount spent per pax: $5
Will I go back again? Yes.
