kith cafe @ robertson quay and juchheim cake met up with siyu for lunch as i felt guilty for missing supper that day with bryan too. bryan couldn't make it as he had to work, so it was just siyu and me. siyu suggested kith cafe which i checked out online and read many good reviews about the place, so we were pretty excited about going there. the place was much smaller than expected. rather cramped and even outdoor seating was pretty sparse. we were actually at a lost where to sit as we couldn't even tell whether the outdoor tables belonged to the cafe. in the end, we managed to grab a seat at the high table indoors. the menu was written on a chalkboard across the wall behind the high table. rather interesting concept, but made it seemed as if people were looking at you all the time. we ordered large cups for the drinks. siyu ordered her usual latte, which smelled lovely. i had the hazelnut nutella milkshake which was divine! the combination was superb and it wasn't overwhelmingly chocolaty. that said, it was still pretty pricey at $8 per cup. siyu's big breakfast, $14. it was huge. she couldn't finish it. my chicken pesto pasta, also $14. thought it was ok, not exactly fantastic, just not very memorable. in the end, we really regretted sitting indoors as there was no ventilation and it became very stuffy after a while. also, there was this oppressive oily sensation that stuck with us (hair and clothes) after we stepped out. i couldn't wait to go home and wash it off. not a good experience for me :( *side note (linked to previous post): hair dye colour was pretty similar to my previous colour, just a little lighter, which is not very obvious here. but the dye was very even and one bottle was sufficient for my hair length. kith cafe XXXXXX sis bought home this juchheim cake which she got from the basement of takashimaya. it's a traditional german cake which the japanese improvised from. it's kind of like our kueh lapis, but lighter, not so buttery or oily. sis said it was expensive and refused to tell me the price. but she did add that it was freshly made and the cake was best eaten fresh. |
