Hoshino Coffee Cafe at Plaza Singapura

Hoshino Coffee Cafe
#03-84 Plaza Singapura
(New extension wing of PS)

Warning: Prepare to queue during meal times :P

Although the restaurant has limited variety on its menu, the fact that there is always a queue during meal times tells us that the food is of acceptable standard.

I went there with friends to try out the food, based on the recommendation of a friend's friend. I had the famous dripped coffee and one of its signature spaghetti 


The spaghetti taste good, despite the lack of sauce and its bland look. It is something like Aglio Olio.

Surprisely the Fuwa Fuwa turns out to be a disappointment. My friend who ordered this dish don't feel satisfied as half of this dish is of baked rice and the rest is just fluffy foam.

I will try out the Omu Rice with Tomato Sauce on my next visit to the cafe.

As the cafe has limited seats with long queue of patrons waiting for tables, you will be expecting waitress going to your table frequently to check on the status of your orders and whether you need anything else.

Within an hour or so of dining, we have the waitresses coming to our table for more than 5 times, excluding the occasion to serve our food.We get the hint ^_^, footing our bills after finishing our food.

But overall, the food and service is good.

A picture really said a thousand words

A simple comic strip to show the Origin of Love. The true meaning of soul mate.

Amazing !

If the philosophy textbooks are in comic strip, I am more than willing to take up philosophical studies.
