Cafe-hopped: Toby the dessert asylum
A regular customer of deal.sg, I happened to find an offer from the site with a cash of $60, but you only pay for $30. Without having a second thoughts, I decided to click order and proceed on to my payment. I started a conversation on my sillies group chat for a TGIF dinner date. And their answer was a YES!
The cafe that I chose was Toby the dessert asylum at parkway parade which was not accessible for my friends and I.
As you see from their name, "The Dessert Asylum", you can expect yourself to go crazy over the tens of dessert options they are serving. And mind you, I'm not talking about BORING desserts like ice-cream or waffles only. They have a huge array of desserts like the mud-pies, brownies, leaning towers, pancakes, coolers and many dessert concoctions
The cafe is clean and neat, with loads of beautiful decorations and furniture but yet nothing over the top. Happy colours psychologically cheers one up.
They have the cutest menu. Look at the graphics and pictures. Definitely added up to their creativity (:
Those pastries on the shelves are just 1/2 of it. They have more choices in the kitchen.
GERMAN & Cheese Bratwurst Combi ($16.95)
Fat and TASTY bratwurst sausages that were paired with a somewhat fragrant garlic rice that were a tad too hard and dry in my opinion.
Spicy Chicken pizza ($14.50)
The Spicy Chicken Pizza is a 9-inch pizza topped with sliced chicken, onions, and a spicy garlic sauce base on a freshly baked thin crust pizza base.
The spicy seafood penne ($15.95)
The Spicy Marinara Penne topped with squid and prawn were pretty well cooked with beautiful flavour that came with a spicy kick. They added in cheese for strong flavours too!
The Mud Pie is a must try here. There are 8 different flavours on the menu. We tried the SEEK Asylum ($15.95) which comes with macadamia ice cream, mocha, almond ice cream with cookies and Baileys Irish Cream. The Baileys Irish Cream was not too overpowering with the interesting play of bitterness complementing the sweetness of the ice cream.
The over power Arctic Bombshell ($12.95) looks like a BOMB to me. Its seen like it is ready to explore. HAHA. Anyway, its meringue stuffed with brownies. 3 of us doesn't like their meringue as it was toasted with a roasted taste. However, their brownies is a plus point for the whole dessert.
Video the whole process down on how we cut open this atomic bomb.
Our TGIF night spent together (:
Till then.
