Tom's Palette

Contrary to believe, Tom's Palette was founded by couple Chronos Chan and Eunice Soon. Chronos had a polytechnic friend named Tom, who did not believe that a ice-cream shop can survive in Singapore. Chronos named the shop Tom's Palette to remind himself of what his friend said.  

 
Tom's Palette has been creating and serving homemade ice-cream since 2005. This shop specialises in creating unique ice-cream flavours using ingredients you would never imagine. There is ice-cream made of popping candy (Melt 'n' Sizzle), coconut (Salted Coconut) and floral tea (Lavender). You can find a list of some of the popular flavours here
 
 
At Tom's Palette, you can have your ice-cream in a variety of ways.

 

 
Tables are decorated with drawings and photos of happy customers, giving the place a relaxing and playful vibe. 

 

 
I ordered Waffles with 2 of their most popular ice-cream flavours, Grandma's Favourite and Salted Egg Yolk. The Belgian-style waffles are freshly-baked and served with foam named Espuma. The ice-cream is velvety-smooth and sweetness of the ice-cream is greatly enhanced by the slightly salty Espuma foam.It would have been perfect if the waffles had been a little more buttery and dense.
 

 

 

 

 

 

 
With 27 flavours of ice-cream to choose from, you will be spoilt for choice.
 
 
Chronos let me try a flavour they are working on at the moment, which is made with shoyu and sesame. It tastes a little like salted caramel ice-cream with a very strong sesame taste. They have not come up with a name for it yet, I think I shall call it Open Sesame for now.

 

Chronos and Eunice have created more than 140 flavours till date and they continue to create amazing flavours that aims to bring back fond memories. A new flavour is introduced each month, which is announced on their Facebook page. They are working on exciting festive flavours for the upcoming Chinese New Year such as Pineapple Tart and Luo Han Guo.

PAUL

PAUL is a renowned family French bakery and patisserie founded in 1889. Bringing with them them the fine tradition of passion for food and French traditions, PAUL gives Singaporeans a glimpse into French culture and tradition through the delicious and visually-appealing pastries and food.       PAUL's Hot Chocolate is not as creamy as I would have liked it but every last drop is made with good-quality cocoa powder.     Lemon Tart With Meringue is not exactly my favourite dessert, but it looked so pretty that I decided to give it a try anyway. However, it proved to be too sour for my palette even with the beautifully flamed meringue.    Croque Madame is croque-monsieur (grilled ham and cheese sandwich) topped with a fried egg. Emmental cheese, cream and ham is sandwich in pain de eie and toasted till a rich golden brown colour. Topped with a fried egg with runny yolk, every bite is filled with delicious goodness.   Address and telephone n...

O'ma Spoon

                        Korean bingsu is a popular Korean dessert comprising of ice shavings and various ingredients such as sweetened condensed milk, fruit syrups, fresh fruits, Korean rice cake and ice-cream. Bingsu is all the craze in Singapore now and Korean bingsu cafes are popping up everywhere like wild mushrooms.                            Besides bingsu, this dessert cafe also serves usual cafe offerings such as coffee and tea. I have been told that their Signature Oven-Baked Honey Bread is very good. The flavours include Strawberry & Chocolate with Ice Cream, Banana & Chocolate with Ice Cream and Green Tea with Ice Cream.     I was told that   Mango Cheesecake Bingsu   is one of the most popular item on the menu. Oh my, it is a sight to behold! A bowl of shaved ice is topped with sweetened condensed milk and freshly-cut m...

Grandma's - Authentic Singapore Food

Grandma's has been around for quite a while now but I only got the chance to try their food recently when the third outlet opened in Suntec City.        I remember having these prawn crackers when I was little. They are so easy and good to eat, I can finish a whole package of this in one sitting.     I don't usually order Malay food, but the Nasi Bukhari looked so good in the menu, I thought I will give it a try. Fragrant yellow turmeric rice is served with golden brown chicken leg which is crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. Prawns were fresh and succulent but I don't really like the sauce the prawns are cooked in. What really amazes me about this dish is the beef rendang.          I never knew Bo Bo Cha Cha is so such a delightful dessert until I tried it here at Grandma's. The warm and thick coconut tastes so good with chunks of sweet potato and yam. This is definitely comfort food that warms the heart.   Gr...
