I'm on leave today and I met a friend for lunch around my neighbourhood. Thereafter, we proceeded to Raffles City. She had to get her free gifts from Origins and I bought myself a tube of Origins Never A Dull Moment - Skin brightening face cleanser with fruit extracts.
Next Stop:- Donut Factory @ Raffles City Basement
There were, yes, a queue of like 15-20 people ahead of us. Yet, we both decided to join in the queue for the donuts (since both of us are sooo free today, loh..) Hahaa.. After about 40 mintues or so of queuing, we finally placed our orders of a box of 6 for me and a box of 6 and 12 respectively for her cousin and herself.
I ordered, Hazelnut Mixed Chocolate, Kaya White Chocolate, Double Chocolate, White Strawberry Heart, Lotus Mocha and Apple Cinnamon.
Hmmm... Now, the best thing to relax and idle the next hour or so away, was to head over to Starbucks at Orchard Building. My friend collected her empty carton boxes and we downed our donuts with caffine, while admiring her new car and chatting away about the clouds over and above us and not forgetting the pigeon's shit splattering all over. Hahaha..
Okay, I tried the Double Chocolate from my friend's box of 12 and it was good. It wasn't too sweet and the dark and white chocolate oozed and melted in my mouth. It's light and fluffy and not oily. I like it. The donuts that I've tried in the past are oily and tough, and I didn't want to have to feel like I'm drinking a pot of oil. And it would make me stop at one piece. Well, next one to try would be the one at Takashimaya Basement - recommended by my buddy, that has a denser and more textured taste. I'm sure her recommendation wouldn't disappoint. :D
As for my friend's comments, she said she'd prefer Krispy Kreme's Doughnuts. And it's a pity that no one has brought the franchise over to Singapore, yet...
Alright then.. We'll be having some donuts for supper this late evening..
Tuck In!!!
