It has been a while since I last visited Okada Coffee and I finally got to try its signature Mont Blanc($ 9), made with the premium chestnuts from its hometown Kumamoto. The patterned layers of Mont Blanc set it apart from the usual«noodle strand» chestnut cakes, with a meringue heart that gave a good measure of crunch. The Crème de marron was full of chestnut goodness but the Crème Chantily was in short supply and I wished it could be significantly less sweet. Fortunately, it’s another chestnut sweet, the Okada Roll($ 8), was rational on sugar. The core was pumped up with light chestnut cream and one could inhale whiffs of eggy aroma in the pillowy sponge. The Matcha Cake is a simple construction of green tea mousse, azuki beans and sponge. Nothing much fanciful.

Two years later, tried again. Bumping up to 5 stars because they are still in business, service is still great(although empty on a Sumday), and their tea set remains the same price. Had the vegetable curry set, comes with a nice side salad and a drink. Yum yum. Loved it.

This place is a great venue around lunchtime, aka for those who are too hungry to queue. This happens to me. A lot. Tucked behind Simply Wrapps, Okada Coffee is a great alternative to Ya Kun Kaya Toast, which is on the 2nd Floor of 100AM. The specialty is the Japanese curry. All the curry bases are the same with different toppings, ie beef, katsu, etc. The curry here isn’t my favorite in Singapore, but it is indeed made in house. The desserts also look quite appetizing though I have yet to try them. Similar to Ricky S., I hope this place stays around for a while. It’s a good alternative to the different joints around the area. Lunch specials are $ 17 and include a salad, tea/coffee, and a plate of curry. Okada is a homey place
