Waffles and Coffee
the past few weekends have actually been really slow and boring, spent the days cafe hopping to basically people-watch, read a book and simply pass the time away. if you happen to have the luxury (or in some cases misfortune) to do this sometimes, there are some places that i liked, particularly for their waffles and their coffee..Creamier 
starting with this humble looking shop beneath a HDB block in Toa Payoh. despite not being located within Toa Payoh Central (you'd need a feeder bus to get here), this place is always packed in the evenings and on weekends. school-going kids ensure that even the weekdays could be fairly busy. and why not, this little heartland joint is giving the more popular ice-cream joints a run for their money. do try their waffles with Roasted Pistachio or Earl Grey flavoured ice-cream .. Creamier Toa Payoh Lorong 1 Blk 128 #01-835 Singapore 310128 (closed on Mondays) Hoshino Coffee 
this japanese fusion cafe set up shop in the new wing of Plaza Singapura. like many eateries in this mall, snaking queues are part and parcel of their profile. the restaurant boasts a good variety of fusion rice and pasta choices, but it's their coffee and desserts that truly stand out. Their hand-dripped Hoshino Coffee is the signature creation, and we tried the Pancake Souffle Style with Matcha and Ogura Bean Paste as well as their French Toast with ice-cream served in a pan. a real good sugar rush.. Hoshino Coffee #03-84 Plaza Singapura 68 Orchard Road Singapore 238839 Lavender Bakery & Bistro 
i'd quite like this quiet little cafe for their waffles and coffee, the only slight problem is that it's located in Johor Bahru, Malaysia. its a short drive from the Causeway really, this bakery cum cafe is situated just up Taman Pelangi. the cafe is a quiet place for reading or surfing under their free wifi. I love their cappuccino as well as their waffles with strawberry ice cream. don't forget to bring home their specialty lapis cake too! Lavender Bakery & Bistro 64, 66 & 68, Jalan Serampang, Taman Pelangi Johor Bahru, 80400, Malaysia Habitat 
this place believes that coffee creates a window to a time well spent, so it is no wonder that the little joint along Upper Thomson Road is pretty popular for their coffee offerings. the 2 storey shop-house doesn't seat many people so it is advisable to avoid the peak periods. they serve up an aromatic interpretation of the cappuccino and their flavoured coffees are worth a try too. we particularly liked their hazelnut coffee and their affogato. this place does all day breakfast too. Habitat 223 Upper Thomson Road Singapore 574355 Strangers' Reunion 
this cafe joint in the Outram area is all the rage now. founded by a national barista champion, the little shop just beneath Singapore General Hospital is perpetually packed to the brim. despite their extremely busy and noisy environment, the energetic service staff were always moving around to attend to the customers' needs. Magic is the name of their signature award-winning coffee, though their flat-white turned out to be an equally good brew. much have been said about their buttermilk waffles with ice cream and they truly lived up to their name. warm and crispy on the base, to go with vanilla ice cream and fresh fruits. excellent, and certainly worthy of another visit.. Strangers' Reunion 37 Kampong Bahru Road Singapore 169356 there are many other coffee and dessert joints sprouting out recently, but if you are up for some cafe-hopping for waffles and coffee, you may want to check these places out.
