n.y.d.c Cafe & Restaurant, Bugis Junction, Singapore

We made our way over to Singapore yet again for the 2nd consecutive day after having our breakfast in Taman Perling, Johor Bahru. We hit the shopping areas again and ended up at Bugis Junction for lunch. Still feeling full from breakfast, we were looking for something light. It was a warm day and we were feeling tired from all that walking (plus I was beginning to have a fever).

Bugis Junction was packed with lots of people and the crowd was getting to me, I needed to sit down and rest. I was tired and feeling agitated as I felt uncomfortable and could only wonder how I would cope with rest of the day in Singapore.

Going down on one of the escalators, we saw n.y.d.c Cafe & Restaurant smacked in front of us. Take a look at how close the escalator is to the front of the shop! Talk about arriving right at the doorstep :o)

We didn't really feel like having a normal meal; coffee and dessert seemed like a good choice at that moment and we decided to make a pit stop here. The place was pretty pack and it was a cosy place with warm hues. They even had large soft toys on certain seats, I suppose to placate the young ones (or the young-at-heart oldies, hahaha....) while customers wait for their orders as service was quite slow.

Here's the coffee ordered by my friend. Though not feeling well, I'm still a flogger at heart and duty calls...I took pics of what we had but forgot to take notes. I'm not sure what this coffee drink was, I think it was Hazelnut coffee. My friend said that it was not as strong as she hoped it would be as she's a strong coffee drinker. So, this might appeal only to those who usually have heart palpitations after downing a regular cuppa. Hahaha....

Uhhhh.....this is a no name dessert, sorry. But it was definitely a variety of the mud pie we ordered. It was below our expectations and tasted rather ordinary.

This I know, as I took a pic of this section from the menu. This fared best among the three items. I ordered "The Wild Side" (even when I'm ill I know, I live life dangerously. Hahaha....). It has two scoops of ice-cream; Wild Berry and Mango Tango - SGD10.95/USD7.80. It was quite refreshing; served with strawberry and mango sauce and with brownie cubes lined across the ice cream bowl . I enjoyed biting into them together with a spoonful of ice-cream. It was nice but at such a price, I had expected it to be even better.

I'm not sure how the food taste here but the people around me seem to be enjoying themselves. After all, n.y.d.c is a local chain with several outlets and has been around for 10 years. That should account for something? They are opened till midnight on weekdays and till 2 a.m on weekends, serving supper! Check out their website HERE.

Having rested for a while and filled up, we continued walking around. My fever had subsided but not for long ...
