The recent hype on this kind of hipster cafe is beginning to rub off on me. So here I was at this vintage 2 storied block. An alfresco dining, Tian Kee & Co served food and desserts. I heard this used to be an old provision shop.
I was very excited when I saw the rainbow cheesecake. Ain that pretty? I'm a fan of cheesecakes, so how can I forgo trying out their popular cheesecake?
My heart nearly stopped when I saw the empty Yuan Yang Cheesecake at the display counter. Thank God they still had the cake when we placed our order at the cashier.
A glimpse of their menu....
We decided on the following :-
Iced Pink Lady (S$6)
Rose Syrup with Fresh Milk
A decent drink if you are a fan of bandung. What I like is that it's not so sweet.
Peppermint Ice Nutella (S$7)
Too little Nutella. The bulk of it was stuck at the bottom and it doesn't dissolve easily. Only a slight hint of chocolate flavour towards the end but by then, there was more ice than tea in the cup.
Rainbow Yogurt Cheesecake (S$7.50)
An Instagram-worthy cake. It's light tasting and because of the yogurt, there is a slight sourish taste which is good if you are afraid of too much cheese. The rainbow design brings delight to the sight but not much to the bite.
Yuan Yang Cake (S$6.50)
The combination is very refreshing and especially fitting for a location and atmosphere for Tian Kee & Co. A western dessert with a kopitiam twist. The cake is divided into upper and lower half. The upper half consist of teh-O and bottom half is kopi-C. My favourite part about this cake is the upper half as it appears that the tea leaves are being grinded and added to bring out that extra "oomph" in teh-O. The gist of a good yuan yang is to have the best of both worlds and this cake certainly did it well.
Overall, it's a pretty nice place to chill out with friends. Will visit again for their Gula Melaka Cheesecake.
