Hoshino Coffee

Located in the extended wing of Plaza Singapore, Hoshino Coffee has been attracting many patrons. The restaurant was packed, as expected, on a Saturday evening and we waited for about 20 minutes before we got a table for four.

Iced Royal Milk Tea - $7.50
This is different from their iced milk tea but the waitress wasn't able to convey to us what the difference was.

The milk tea comes with a scoop of cream but the milk tea was diluted, and very bland. At $7.50, this is severely overpriced.

Iced Cafe Latte - $7.50
For a small cup of coffee, this cup has more ice than coffee. It was diluted before long and wasn't enjoyable. Once again, it's a very pricey and below average cup of coffee.

We also ordered a mango smoothie - $7. I didn't get a picture of it. But it tasted so raw, and it was practically sugarless. We asked for it to be changed because it tasted so bad. But it came back, almost the same. The drinks were extremely disappointing.

Tomato Omu - $15
The tomato cream sauce was savory and tasty. It goes very well with the rice and eggs. However, the portion of seafood is quite pathetic.

Pescatora Seafood Pasta - $15
The pasta was nicely done and well-cooked.

Fuwa Fuwa - $15.80
This looks really interesting and we just knew that we had to get it. Its very fluffy and eggy and there's rice, cuttlefish and mushrooms underneath the fluffy cloud of egg. It was pretty yummy

Pancake with chocolate banana and soft serve - $13.50
A single thick fluffy pancake coupled with only a few slices of bananas and a much melted side of soft serve. This dessert was less than satisfactory and definitely expensive. The pancake was too dry and tasted more like bread. Also, there were too few pieces of bananas.

Photobucket Vanilla Souffle - $9.80
The vanilla souffle was very eggy and we got quite sick of it after awhile. There's nothing really worth mentioning.

It was quite a disappointing experience at Hoshino. The drinks and desserts are overpriced but their main courses are worth a try. Also, it was difficult to get the attention of the staff and service wasn't really up to mark.
