Riders Cafe - A Horsey Cafe

Riders Cafe - Interior

If you are a horse-lover or want to look at the majestic creatures but too scared to try horse-riding like I did, Riders Cafe is the perfect place for you.

Riders Cafe - Decor

Hidden behind lush greenery in the heart of Bukit Timah, Riders Cafe is located nex to Bukit Timah Saddle Club. You can see horses being washed from the windows and smell the distinctive smell of horses.

High white-washed ceiling and black ceiling beams gives the place an old-world charm. There is no air-conditioning, big ceiling fans help to cool the place. Dark-brown wooden table and chairs gives the place an earthy feel.

Riders Cafe - The Food

The extensive menu at Riders Cafe features classic favourites using good and fresh ingredients. You can find the full menu here.

Riders Cafe - Riders Burger

Eating Riders Burger [S$19] is a messy business. This huge burger comes with 200g of angus beef patty, American cheddar, lettuce, tomato, pickles and house burger sauce. You can even choose the doneness of your beef patty and I asked for medium rare. The beef patty is so juicy that the juice ran down my arm when I tried to take a bite. That's one hell of a burger.

Riders Cafe - Sunrise Smoothie

If coffee, teas and soda are not you thing, do consider getting one of their smoothies. I tried both Sunrise Smoothie[S$9] and Passion Fruit Smoothie [S$9], both are creamy with distinct taste of fresh fruits.

Riders Cafe - Homemade Tea Scones

For a taste of desserts eaten during British colonial days, try their Homemade Tea Scones [S$9]. They are warm and tasty with the accompanying traditional clotted cream, raspberry preserve and butter.

Riders Cafe - Crepe Suzette

Crepes Suzette [S$12] is a simple yet comforting dessert. The butter crepes are flambéed with Grand Manier liquor so they have a light orange fragrance. Eat them with the accompanying passionfruit sauce and coconut ice-cream for a sweet twist.

Riders Cafe - Death by Chocolate Cake

If you are a chocolate-lover, you will love Riders Cafe's signature dessert Death by Chocolate Cake [S$13]. The chocolate cake is moist and dense by itself, the accompanying chocolate sauce and vanilla ice-cream makes it more sinfully divine.

Riders Cafe - Summer Eton Mess

Eton mess is a traditional English dessert and Riders Cafe's Summer Eton Mess [S$13]  added tropical fruits to suit the local palate. The homemade meringue is topped with passionfruit curd, whipped coconut cream and summer fruits such as mango, dragonfruit and kiwi.

Conclusion

Even though there is no air-conditioning at Riders Cafe, but the delicious food and pleasant atmosphere makes it a joy to come to for a leisurely breakfast, lunch or dinner.

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...
