It's a warm & lazy Sunday afternoon. It's days like these that I crave the insanely strong air-conditioning in the shopping malls, but mostly I crave a steaming hot cuppa latte! I'm a caffeine fiend who has to have a caffeine fix whatever the weather.

Unfortunately for me, its Formula 1 Grand Prix fever here in Singapore. The main shopping belt, Orchard Road, is packed with visitors and locals alike. I decided to stay away from the madding crowd and make myself a cup of strong black coffee before heading out to meet friends at a suburban location.

This gave me some time to finally sort out some of the pictures that I had been taking over the past few weeks.

Sticky Date Pudding @ about S$9.50

A Dutch friend had stopped over in Singapore recently, LB & I had met her for lunch followed by coffee.

LB & I couldn't resist sharing a plate of Sticky Date Pudding @ PS Cafe. Though I'm generally not a fan of sweet food, I love this dessert because of the caramelized flavour of the toffee sauce that smothered the warm and moist pudding-cake. I didn't particularly enjoy the vanilla ice-cream that was served with it as it lacked the oomph that one gets from ice-cream made with real vanilla pods. Nonetheless, it helped to counter the richly sweet flavour of the toffee sauce. The Sticky Date Pudding here is a MUST-TRY!

Latte @ about S$4.50

I like the latte here as its adequately strong, not too acidic and has the right balance of milk & coffee. *caffeine-buzz*
