You know who’s even pickier than someone with a sweet tooth? Someone who wants their desserts to be as Instagram-worthy as they’re delicious.
However, no fret! I’m not here to judge and even get y’all that aesthetic desserts are hard to resist.
One cafe in Singapore is particularly known for their good-looking desserts and that’s LUNA, which has pretty much become an institution along Amoy Street.
Well, they’ve branched out and opened a sister concept at 111 Somerset — Lucine by LUNA.
Here, you’ll not just get their iconic sweet treats but also an all-day menu with classic brunch offerings. And, yes, the menu is outlet-exclusive and everything costs under S$15 (excluding GST and service charges).
A highlight is the Tofu Katsu (S$10.90). Wait, hear me out! Despite being made from tofu, the katsu tastes like the real deal and delivers a satisfying crunch with its crispy panko crust.
Cheese lovers should opt for the Grilled Cheese (S$12.90), with your choice of sourdough or brioche mixed with a trio of mozzarella, cheddar and parmesan.
Want something lighter on the stomach? Go for the Lucine Scrambled Eggs (from S$8.90), which you can add Sauteed Garlic Mushrooms (S$3.90) or Creamed Spinach (S$3.90) on the side.
Of course, it’ll be criminal not to order LUNA’s desserts.
Even if you’re full, you need to do yourself a favour by getting their beloved signatures, such as Pistachio Roulade (S$8.80), Blossom ($8.50), and, needless to say, Orh Nee Cake (S$8.50).
The Pistachio Roulade features a dense pistachio chiffon cake stuffed with pistachio cream and topped with raspberry compote, whereas Blossom is a cute flower-shaped pastry filled with strawberry elderflower yoghurt mousse.
As for their Orh Nee Cake, it’s a beautiful creation with coconut chantilly cream and white chocolate pearls layered on top of the cake.
Lucine by LUNA’s selection of lattes shouldn’t be passed over too as they don’t lose out on the aesthetics department. Their Black Sesame Latte (S$8.50) has creamy black sesame sitting atop a freshly brewed nutty latte.
I’d also get the Peanut Butter Latte (S$8.50) to accompany my brunch fare.
As all these flavours and textures may get a little overwhelming, you’ll want to keep a glass of water handy to refresh your palate.
What’s the first thing you’ll try?
