Nana Green Tea



It offers variety of green tea drinks and desserts for you to indulge.

Thin Matcha with Green Tea Soft Serve - This glass of Thin Matcha with soft serve ice cream was customized. In the menu, Thin Matcha is only sold with vanilla soft serve float, we wanted to change the vanilla to green tea flavor as they do sell green tea soft serve in a takeaway cone. Store Manager, Haru, graciously agreed to replace the vanilla with green tea soft serve.


Salmon Carpaccio – Ordered without salad dressing. The salmon is thick, fresh and sweet. At SGD8.80 for 8 slices of salmon, it is very value for money.



Salmon Don – Ordered without mayonnaise. The salmon tasted great, same as Salmon Carpaccio.
For SGD14.80 and with the same amount of salmon, this would mean that I paid SGD6.00 more for the rice and a bowl of miso soup. Overall it was still nice.


Waka Tama Udon – Looked slightly different from the menu. In the menu, the seaweed covers the whole top surface, cannot see through the layer. While this one, the seaweed is sparingly scattered on top of the soup and you can see the Udon beneath it.  We expected to get what was like in the photo.

Truffs


If you walk along 179A Telok Ayer Street during weekday lunch time, there will be lots of office workers rushing and moving around for food. Truffs is located at Level 2 and there is a 菜饭 stall at Level 1 which always attracts a long queue of people blocking Truffs’ entrance.

After walking up a flight of stairs, you will see Truffs.  The moment you enter Truffs, the calm and quiet atmosphere sets you in peaceful and relaxing mood. It is very different from the busy streets and crowded eating places.



Handmade Chocolate


Truffle

They offer 55%, 66% and 70% dark chocolate truffles. Those who like it sweet can try their 55% équateur dark chocolate. Personally, I prefer it bitter with mild sweetness - 70% honduras dark chocolate.




Chocolate Cake
The royal glossy dark chocolate makes it elegant and inviting. I wish I could capture a better angle of the cake.


Earl Grey Chocolate Tart
I love it as it is not too sweet. The creamy and intense chocolate taste is awesome. The Earl Grey has added a fine tea bitter taste to the tart; perhaps this is why it is not sweet.



I wish I had the time to sit here and relax. It is a subtle artistic place with smoothing effect.
