Waffles filled with apricot

Haven't been here for a while but suddenly remembered this place for waffles when I saw them listed as a openrice finalist for the Best Restaurant Awards

Previously I have tried the apple version and this one is an improvement.
The apricot filling is just as good as the apple but this time there were less white chocolate shavings so it was not cloyingly sweet and there was a good layer of cream which complimented the waffle and apricot filling.

Then I tried two chocolate waffles which were made with Belgian chocolate.
They look like Liege waffles but they are not and have a chocolate brownie soft mushy texture. Personally I like them with cream but dessert and sweet tooth lovers will probably like it with icecream.

Lemon and apricot cake @ Pacific Coffee

I am such a fan for Pacific coffee products, it is rare for me to dislike anything there.

One thing I do not buy is coffee, but I do drink tea.

I got the lemon and apricot cake as a light snack, its not too sweet, and there are lovely bits of apricot in it.
It is not too greasy either.

The date on the packaging is rather memorable, because it consists of consecutive numbers.

 

Fritillary and apricot drink

After trying the delicacies on my last visit, I went back for the drinks.

They had quite a few interesting drinks such as the cashew nut drink, wolfberry and tomato, apricot juice with fritillary.

I assumed they would use fresh fruit for the juices, but they used dried fruits, nuts and berries.
For each drink, all the different ingredients are put in the blender.
Each ingredient comes in indiviudal packs ready to be opened and put in the blender with ice.

It was fun watching them make the drinks, taking out the relevant packs to make each drink.
Same with the ready to eat delicacies, each item was packed in different bags, sachets of tendons, abalone, vegetables.

When I ordered the Apricot juice with fritillary, I saw them get a packet of dried apricots and a packet of fritillary and put the contents in the blender.
Initially I didn’t find the ginseng drink interesting, but blended dry ginseng sounds interesting.

Fritillary and apricot drink
I requested the drink without honey because the apricot was sweet enough, and it turned out just right.
However the drink was thick and syrupy.

The sea cucumber was not soft enough and the truffle sauce was not strong enough.
