Now that they're closer to the CBD, I'll definitely check them out. besides, I'm often taking clients to The Strand Arcade for shopping, so that's a perfect place to recharge the Myriam @ Detourshttp://www.detours.typepad.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3556178499188429083.post-81994440114982717132010-05-10T11:02:05.486+10:002010-05-10T11:02:05.486+10:00hi phuoc, they seem to have some signature dessert...hi phuoc, they seem to have some signature desserts they always have and i believe they do a good duck pie which Good Living once mentioned but i've yet to try.<br /><br />hi yaya, it is a bit on the pricey side but i guess it's quality not quantity for this place. let me know what you try if you go.<br /><br />hi gobsmack'd, do you have any other recommendations in the city for cheapSimon Leonghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10876960777476668265noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3556178499188429083.post-40983945711723821322010-05-10T04:57:30.693+10:002010-05-10T04:57:30.693+10:00I walked past the other day and I could've eas...I walked past the other day and I could've easily spent an hour behind the glass just admiring everything!Mariahttp://www.aamukahvinaaressa.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3556178499188429083.post-67431336129716695602010-05-09T20:53:57.616+10:002010-05-09T20:53:57.616+10:00wow wow.. thanks for letting me know.
