Doutor - Good for a Quick Chill Out

Closed

I guess the location in the Marina Financial Bay Centre makes this an ideal place to chill out during breaks and after work. The place looks chic and modern, so definitely conducive for that.


The tea is very potent in taste, great for those who like strong tea. The cakes are pretty nice. The mille crepe is layered with light cream and mildly sweet paper-thin crepes, which makes for a good dessert. Kind of amazed that the layers of dough can be used to create such light dessert, without inducing the full feeling. Though I will not specially go down for this cake since it did not hit the "wow" note in me. The green tea cake is decent with a layer of nice, slightly bitter layer of matcha powder on top and red bean with cream sandwiched between the soft sponges. But somehow, the combination does not hold up together to create an awesome taste that is striking and memorable. Well, mille crepe does better to leave an impression in my mind.

Service is a mix of decent and cluelessness. No major misgiving though.

Don't mind getting the mille crepe if happened to be in the vicinity since I appreciate the unique texture and taste due to layers of dough instead of the usual sponge cake.

My Thoughts: Not Bad

Note: This cafe is no longer in operation.
