Ms Durian - Mouthwatering Mao Shan Wang Durian Desserts

If you love to eat durians but prefer to have it in a nice environment with air-conditioning, I recommend Ms Durian.

History

This durian speciality bakery and cafe is the brainchild of Ling Goh and Jeslyn Tan. Ling Goh grew up in a family of durian sellers which cements her love for the king of fruits. She partners her baker friend, Jeslyn Tan and opened this dessert cafe in 2019.

The cafe started off as a humble bakery store in Potong Pasir in 2019, before moving to Jalan Besar during the COVID-19 pandemic in 2021.

Decor

Ms Durian - Cafe Front

The building that houses Ms Durian used to be an old police station, no wonder it looks so stately. The cafe retains its mid-century brutalist interior. Ivory white walls interlace with stripes of textured walls gives the place a touch of grandeur.

Ms Durian - Courtyard

There is also an outdoor patio for alfresco seating. The outdoor seating are pet-friendly so you can bring along your furry friends too.

The Food

Ms Durian is after all a cafe, so they do offer some light bites such as pastas, mains and risotto but most people come here for the desserts.

The durian desserts are freshly-made everyday to ensure optimal freshness.

Ms Durian - Classic MSW Durian Cake

This is the Classic MSW Durian Cake [S$12.50 per slice] is perfectly decadent. The soft fluffy sponge cake works so well with the creamy durian filling.

Ms Durian - Whiskey MSW Durian Cake

It’s an ingenious idea to pair whisky with mao shan wang durian in Whisky MSW Durian Cake [S$14.50 per slice]. The whisky accentuates the bitter-sweetness of mao shan wang durian.

Ms Durian - MSW Creme Brulee

Crème Brûlée with MSW Ice-Cream [S$18.50] turned out to be the best durian dessert. The crème brûlée is done well with a nice caramelized top. The mao shan wang ice-cream and peanut candy melds together wonderfully with the crème brûlée.

Ms Durian - Durian Coconut Milk Pudding

Durian Coconut Milk Pudding [S$6.50] pales a little in comparison with the other desserts but it is still good. The pudding is smooth and creamy with slight coconut fragrance. People who are not used to the pungent mao shan wang taste can start off with this pudding.

Conclusion

It’s safe to say that I have been totally bought over by their durian desserts. Even though the prices are much higher than other dessert cafes, the superb quality will have you forking out the money willingly.

Do take note there is a time limit of 1 hour for ala carte orders, 1.5 hours for lunch and tea sets during peak hours between 1-5pm on weekends.

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...
