Doi Chaang Coffee Singapore in Clementi 321

-
I love going to coffee shops and cafes! The strong aroma of freshly brewed coffee, the buttery sweet scent of pancakes and just that over-all laid back feel. What makes it even more fun is when you walk into a coffee shop that screams "take a photo of me" in every nook and cranny! In today's social media speak, I'd say... it's totally Instagram-worthy!

Recently, I've been going crazy over this new foodie app that allows me to buy credits and to bid for a certain dish for as low as $1! I've been so hooked with it for days that one of the things that I bought was a $2.60 voucher for a glass of Iced Coffee from Doi Chaang Coffee in Clementi. I'll tell you more about this app in my succeeding entries but for now let's focus on the coffee shop, shall we?

Doi Chaang Coffee originated in Northern Thailand. To be honest, I initially thought I'd be drinking Iced Vietnamese Coffee as it looks pretty much like it. I've never had Thai coffee before so this was something I was excited to try. We stepped into the small but cozy Doi Chaang store in the newly-opened 321 Clementi Mall. On each table were cute animal figurines and several travel icons too. I first availed of the Iced Doi Chaang Coffee (S$6.50) by showing my S$2.60 voucher! Really, what a great deal! To go with our coffee, we ordered the Raspberry Yogurt Crepe Cake (S$6.50) too.

Okay, I'll start with the coffee -- I have to say that it was pretty strong but I love how the milk, cream (or seems like it's condensed milk) has given the drink just the right amount of sweetness and milky texture. It was good! Paul, who tries to stay away from caffeine past 4pm, first had a sip of the Iced Doi Chaang and before I knew it, he has managed to finished the coffee till the last drop. Even without the voucher, I'd be happy to have this again on my next visit.

As for the cake, we both love crepe cake but we normally stick to the tried and tested ones. The Raspberry Yogurt Crepe Cake was really good! Layers of thin crepe which sandwich a generous serving of raspberry jam. I love it! While admittedly, it didn't match our coffee that well but we both love the fruity notes and how light the cake was.

It was a simple night cap at Doi Chaang and I'm glad we discovered this thanks to my favorite foodie app!

Check out Doi Chaang Coffee at 321 Clementi Avenue 3, 01-02 321 Clementi Mall, Singapore. Follow them on Facebook.

Franny Mommy Finds : Happy Noz Sticker Patch

As a parent, I have one thing that I dread the most and that's when any of my kids fall sick. From the moment we detect the faintest sniffle followed by sneezes and runny nose, we know one thing is for sure -- we will be having a couple of sleepless nights. For twins, it is very common that when one falls sick, expect the other one to follow suit in just a matter of days, sometimes within hours even.  A few years ago, my twins would catch a cold and we really would struggle because they'd become very fussy and cranky at night. They're sleepy and tired from the cold but with a clogged nose, they can't really have a restful night and this means, either one of us will have to sit up and carry them all throughout the night. It came to a point wherein both kids were sick and Paul and I eventually caught the bug too. It was just so hard to care for the kids while you're not in the best condition as well. This got me researching on remedies on how we can have a good night ...

Bag of Beans (Charito) in Tagaytay

I can't believe that we have been frequenting Tagaytay for more than a decade now and not once have I written about Bag of Beans ! I tried searching all over this blog and I found..nothing. To think that not a single trip to Tagaytay, back then, would ever be complete without stopping by Bag of Beans for lunch or merienda. I must have been to engrossed with their coffee and bread that I wasn't able to take photos of the place and their food thus no blog entry. They, after all, have one of the best brewed coffee in Tagaytay and the yummiest bread to go with it too. Bag of Beans has been an institution in Tagaytay. Just like us, other tourists and visitors would make sure to drop by in order to grab a bite or to take home some of their homemade goodies every time they find themselves in Tagaytay. Bag of Beans started with one branch along the Tagaytay-Nasugbu Main Road across Residence Inn Zoo and it wasn't even overlooking the Taal. While they may lack in having a scenic ...

IKEA Singapore Pyjamas Party

For those who have watched the movie 500 Days of Summer starring Zooey Deschanel and my ex-boyfriend Joseph Gordon-Levitt, you probably also loved this scene: Paul and I are regular shoppers of IKEA . It's highly possible that someday, we will be able to furnish our future home with IKEA furniture pieces and items as it has been our go-to place since our 1st day here in Singapore. We would joke that if only we can live in IKEA, we probably would go for it. Well, who would have thought that the opportunity would come for us to "spend the night" in IKEA? A week ago, Paul and I were chosen to be one of the lucky few to join the exclusive IKEA Pyjamas Party . It was a 4-hour event starting at 11PM and we were told to come in..what else?!...our PJs. We were too shy though so we just went in our comfy t-shirt and shorts. Well, some were really brave and came in their full PJs complete with fluffy bedroom slippers! This event was to launch the 2015 IKEA catalogue also...
