Jessie| Singapore Beauty and Lifestyle Blogger: Department Of Caffeine

Out to another new place that I’ve been wanting to check out – 'Department of Caffeine'!

There are just so many cafes around the Duxton area! Look closely for D.O.C or you might just miss it. Department of Caffeine has been attracting many cafe- hoppers and coffee lovers- it was rather packed when I paid my first visit to the cafe. Serving a selection of coffee and other beverages, pastries and a small range of main dishes that include several brunch items, Department of Caffeine does seem to know the usual combination of ingredients to please it's customers.

The allocation of space is definitely challenging as the space they have is long and narrow. The wooden walls and furniture provided a warm feeling to its ambience.

The Menu- D.O.C offers Beverages, Pastries, Savory & Sweet dishes!

(Note: Weekday n Weekend have different menu. They serve churros on weekends only!)

I was in the mood for waffles! (They have both sweet and savory waffles at DOC) I ordered the sweet one, Buttermilk waffles with New zealand Natural premium vanilla ice-cream. I personally do not like butter rum banana but if you do, you may try that as well. Some other flavors you can try: Peanut butter & Jelly/Blueberry Compote. No doubt, it has probably one of the best waffles around and serves multiple selection of roasts for you to choose your cuppa from. The waffles was crispy and light. The fragrant caramel was perfect with it and the ice cream gave a sweet finish to the entire dish. I would highly recommend this to you!

My love ordered 'The Lavender & Honey Cake'. It surely did hit the expectations; the layer of honey on top provided this intense sweetness and there was also a heavy aroma from the Lavender on the cake. The cake was also light enough. While your taste buds are doing a sweet waltz, the scent of lavenders take you into a meadow sprawled with its kind- Ah. This cake is totally worth a try if you have made your visit there!

Selection of house made cakes- Delicious!

I will definitely be back to try their churros with kahlua-spiked chocolate sauce! If you are someone who loves brunch and coffee, or someone who loves visiting cafes that are in the town area, you should definitely check Department of Caffeine out. It is definitely a great place to grab some friends along for a chill-out. You are likely not to be disappointed if you make your way down for a visit! Note: They take reservations between so if you wish to avoid the wait or risk being turned away, just email or call them way in advance.
