Dessert Bowl (δΈη’ηε)
A fren recommended this pl. Went twice and weren’t disappointed at all.
I would say the desserts are beta than those at the China Town and at Liang Seah St.- if you like cold desserts (I m not affiliated with tis store).
The pl is kinda small but if u do get to take one of the 2 sofa seats, it is actually quite cozy. The sofa seats can provide the view of the street and can accommodate about 6 persons (3 on each side)
Dessert bowl allows u to customize ur dessert. U can choose to add pearls or jelly or ice cream or u can choose to do without sum items (basically just tell them wat u like).
Most of the desserts are fruit base. A variety of desserts with mango and strawberries. There are also some weird combination like mango (wif mango puree) plus the glutinous rice n coconut milk. Not a bad combination actually.
I’ve tried quite a number of variety (testing my frenz orders), so far so gd. None of my frenz claim disappointment. (Except for the durian crepe/wrap, not rely nice)
My recommendations
- Durian moose (should b $4.50)
- Mango (+ mango puree) with jelly n coconut milk (should b $3.50)
o Usually I ordered without the coconut milk.
Most items price around $3-5 (need to pay extra for additional items – about $0.50)

Besides nice desserts, this pl doesn’t pressurised you to leave after your dessert. No doubt if you are those waiting for seats, u would feel kinda disappointed. However, it would b a nice pl to spend the afternoon or nite.
It can get kinda noisy though (small compound with cramp tables). So if u r looking for a quiet pl to get cozy, tis may not be recommended (afternoon mayb less crowded n noisy)
Hope u like the desserts as much as I do. But dun expect high-class dessert quality like Hagen Diaz ice cream or Goodwood Park hotel durian crepe.
Life is forever changing n unpredictable. But I cun denied that I felt that my life is actually improving especially over the past 2 years. Crossing my fingers tat it will continue to improve as I age (hopefully gracefully)

2nd day of my bday celebration
16 May.
Becos of the late nite zzz (6.30am, I shud say an early morn zzz), I oni mge to drag myself outta bed around 1pm. Time is short as I m expected to be ready by 2pm (at my void deck).
I go abt doing the norm, shower, change, make up. But sum how (mus be due to the lack of zzz) I did everyting at a much slower pace. Can’t concentrate on wat to wear, wat make up to use, which bag to match n wat to bring ….. blah blah blah.
Anyway, despite that I was given more time (due to my lack of comm.), I still ended up being late. Only mge to leave my hse at 2.25pm. Haiz.
Anyway, I’ve inform my frenz of my lateness (luckily was my bday celebration so wud nt be commented of being late *wink) as still need to rush over to collect my cake.
Luckily cake collection at Mohamah Sultan is pretty near to Bugis. Was so worried when saw a queue at the car park. Luckily, we din waited too long (at most 10 min plus finding a nice lot). *lucky star shining on me?
Once found my frenz, we headed to Toast Box for kopi. Mainly was to share the cake as I’ve specially chosen tis cake for my frenz (tried it at company events n was rely nice). Price a little steep but once a yr so still deserve it (fresh fruits, nice texture, exquisite design)
http://www.thepatissier.com/webtop/
We basically did nothing except sitting at Toast box to chit chat. Wif 3 infants around, it’s not ez to move abt at the crowded Bugis junction, so, our options is often limited to eat n tok only.
But it’s ok. Jiajun was entertaining enuff to keep us occupy for quite a while. He even passed mi a small little present and sang the bday song. If he is in the rite mood, he can be rely cute.
After Toast box for almost 2 hours, we decided to head towards our dinner place. A walk over to Shaw Tower for a good pasta. Well, Creation is not open til 5.45pm. Thus, again, we found a pl to sit and rest the kids.
Shaw is not crowded, but tat oso mean there isn’t much to shop. Basically, I only tour 2 shops n tat’s all. Sit n tok n wait for Creation to be open for our dinner.
Sounded quite dull for a bday celebration isn’t it. It was as boring as it sounded, since I get to tok to my gfs (gals can jus sit n tok for hours mah).
Dinner was jus as good as it has always been. Creation has nv failed mi. We ordered quite a few variety and tasted each other food. Gd food with gd dessert for a gd price, wat else to ask for.
@15.20 nett (no GST n Svc Charge), u get a drink, soup, pasta n dessert (not those small little cake like Hans, most of us chose Brownie with Ice-cream.)
Sorry, I forgot to take pics again. Haiz, kinda sad as I’ve purposely reminded myself to take sum pics of the food n post on blog. Promise I’ll do it during my nx visit.
I tot the dinner wud be the end of the day, but my fren suggested tat all of us to drive over to courts tampines to get my pressie.
Courts was pretty crowded on a Sat evening (probably due to a sale going on). We reach around 7.45pm went straight to get a clothes steamer from Morris (recommended by a fren). As I’ve not tried out b4, I tot might as well get the one my fren is hvg. At least she has tested n proven it to be good.
However, the one I wanted was not avail and we were push from 1st fl to 2nd fl den back to 1st fl. (kinda pissed off as I expect to receive correct info, not to be kick ard by those promoters.)
Anyway, still the model I wanted was nt avail (but I mge to test the display set). Generally, it seems ok n thus decided to get the other avail model (cheaper, and the promoter claims tat it’s the same wif different design). My oni worry is that it’s not as good as it’s cheaper.
Nonetheless, I agreed on it since I din wanna waste the trip n source again.
It was almost 9pm when I reach hm after sending 2 frenz back. Not tired at all n was rushing hm to watch my soccer match. Luckily the result is still nil-nil when I get hm. Anyway, the match ended with Nil – Nil. But tat oso mean Man U won the title of BPL. Hahahahahaha, Liverpool can indeed stop dreaming ….. COOL!!!
Despite my tiredness, I din zzz til 3.30am. Hv been watching dvd to keep mi awake as I need to stay up to bid for an item on Ebay closing at 3.20am tat nite.
Went to bed winning a bid, burning my pocket (but happy).

Bday celebration on 15 May
Hv been saying tat I would keep my blog updated but always push to another time. Haiz, rely bad of mi.
Just celebrated my bday over the wkn. Had an enjoyable time and thank u all my frenz for celebrating my bday n the free meals n pressie. Much appreciated.
I always look forward to my bday though it means tat I’ll b another yr older. Y? Cos it gives mi a gd excuse to mit up wif my frenz, hv sum nice food, eat a nice cake, making wishes n receiving pressies.
Actually, I wanted to write on my full bday celebration but it was simply too long tat I hv to split up the post to celebration by day.
This post would only abt 15 May celebration.
Start wif a free lunch treat by my dear colleague at Ichiban for Jpn food. Always one of my preferred cuisines.
Early knock off to meet up wif my ex-colleagues for one of my fav dishes – Black pepper crabs at Still road. Hmmm, crabs is always my top choice (abalone or shark fins r nv on my fav list). Besides crabs, we hv sum other nice dishes too. (Will share the photos soon)
After sum nice food, we head over to Serangoon Gardens for dessert at “ Dessert Bowl”. This shop was recommended by a fren n after trying for once, I decided to go back for more. Hmmm, if u like cold dessert, tis is one pl u should consider. I’ll write more about tis place in another post.
As usual, becos of late comers, we ended up staying at tis pl for 4 hrs plus. It was at 12mn tat we decided to end for day until a suggestion for mahjong session. It was rely funny, considering such a last min decision. We dun hv a venue to play n mahjong table is our biggest prob. We actually has to call around to see if we can borrow one. Amazing, end up my fren manage to buy a MJ table at 12.30mn from one of his neighbourhood store. *clap
Anyway, we ended up playing at my hse kitchen (din even realized tat I’ve a MJ table at my hse). Not too bad, since I’ve got proper chairs, table, chips, MJ n drinks.
The MJ lasted til 6am (finally get to zzz ard 6.30am). I tot I’ll die out of tiredness soon. Hv not been sleeping much considering watching last mid week soccer from 3-5am, n hv nt recover from the lack of zzz.
Anyway, tat’s how I ended my bday celebration on 15 May (til 16 May morn).
Nex post will b the celebration on 16 May itself wif my close frenz.
