This is one of those pathetically exterior looking but makes you gasp in awesome when you enter through that plain looking glass door. Not the most accessible via public transport but definitely worth the trip. The restaurant was so beautifully decorated that you are immediately transported to a different world entirely. With the wide range of desserts and macarons being displayed near the entrance, it's as though one is being injected with a high dose of endorphin and just feel happy naturally.
Well, I am not one with a sweet tooth and I thought it's just a place for dessert. Boy...was I in for a surprise by the savoury menu! My friend and I ordered Antoinette's breakfast, Crab Suzette pasta, Pavlova Crepe and Antoinette cake....
The Antoinette cake is really special. It's a milk chocolate earl grey tea ganache with raspberry confiture. I don't usually eat cake as they are too sweet but this one is not! The taste of early grey is subtle and yet nice...I can't help but to go for 2nd and 3rd serving!
The hot chocolate smells really good and it's smooth, not too chocolaty and sweet.
The breakfast is definitely one to go for if you are really hungry. With your choice of egg, grilled bacon and sausage, pain the mie toast, basket of viennoiseries and hot chocolate. Yummy....
Crab suzette is a spaghetti cooked alio olio style with crab, white wine, chilli, cherry tomato and basil....Definitely interesting...the crab meat was shredded and added into the pasta. It mixed well with the other ingredients and the serving is also huge.
Pavlova crepe...omg....it's flamebeed caramelized banana, chocolate sauce, passionfruit banana sorbet, French meringue and vanilla crème Chantilly. It's really the top peeps...really...you gotta try for yourselves!

Hopped onto a cab to find this as really, who ever know where Penhas Road is? Its quite quite easy to spot once you hit the stretch - just look out for something that is out of place in that almost dilapidated industrial area. The pristine white will grab you if you still can't see it.
The place was only about 4tables full but I guessed its due to it's because it was only opened on 14 June. Many different types of seatings to choose from and a terribly nice spot to impress a girl I must say. Its all sweets, chocolates, a little victorian style decor with cushy seats. What's not to like?
The sight of a huge assortment of meringue, cookies, pastries, caneles, macaroons can be quite distracting but we were there for the cakes after all!
Antoinette ($9) - milk chocolate mousse infused with earl grey tea, chocolate biscuit, raspberry coulis, and earl grey tea crumble - their signature cake. Very strong earl grey smell and taste, with the chocolate biscuit pairing extremely well with the raspberry coulis. Very good!
Saint Honore L'amour ($8) - almond biscuit, choux pastry ring, red fruit compote, choux puff filled with rose cream and rose vanilla creme chantilly - to be honest, this looked better than it tasted. I am not a big fan of rose cream although the chou puff was nice, plus what you see on the rose petal is NOT water droplets - its sugar syrup. Nice.
Chocolicieux ($9.50) - Magnum ice cream bar-like chocolate cake on a stick covered with dark chocolate studded with nuts - this is the ultimate 'magnum'. The inside was very densely filled with either mousse or cake and some caramel bits and the dark chocolate coating completing the experience with the nuts providing a nice crunch.
Latte ($4.50) - A typical good coffee.
Service was okay although some staff seemed a bit new, evident in their too-careful serving of drinks and cakes, but nothing too bad about it.
We were also entertained by the fact that the bill came in a metal bling box. Cute ending to the whole experience.
