Good to the last drop!

Mmmmmmm, What we could only describe as some of the most amazing desserts in the world! And everywhere too, you can find everything from fresh homemade gelato to chocolate truffles, cakes, and tortes to the traditional Chinese and Japanese desserts. There’s definitely something for everyone here. We had to stop in for some of the melt in our mouth donuts!


Lori thought it was especially tasty.


Anders thought the custard was especially tasty.


And then there was durian, told by locals that it can only be found in Singapore and very traditional here…so we thought we must try it, of course. But it must be an acquired taste…because we thought it was the most horrible thing we had ever put in our mouths! We were also told that it was outlawed from even taking on any form of public transport because of its extremely pungent smell! Good rule of thumb…if even the smell is outlawed, it really shouldn’t ever be in your mouth!
Here's more objective information.

  1. As a general rule: steer clear of anything that's pollinated by bats - as if the fragrance wasn't warning enough.
    Tell those Singaporians to try some durian grown in Florida or Hawaii.
