Note: All Good Things is no longer in operation.

All Good Things – a terrific tiny cake shop on Rodyk Street Robertson Quay, serves a selection of gluten free cakes. It is a good place to stop by to grab a coffee and a slice of cake when in the vicinity.

Everything is kept to a minimum – basic packaging, simple interior, and plain furniture – as they believe in focusing on baking cakes.

I like All Good Things because it is a very simple and uncomplicated place. In a world where everyone tries very hard to be cool and hip, All Good Things is the complete opposite; they don’t try too hard, and they are passionate about what they are doing.

Walking into the cake shop, you would be tempted by the souffle cheesecake ($6.50), or raspberry yogurt coconut cake ($6.50). Another dessert that you must try is the zucchini and coconut cake, which goes perfectly well with a cup of coffee. A simpler, though no less satisfying offering is their signature flourless chocolate cake. Other options include: tiger bundt cake, marble cake with chocolate ganache, carrot cake and lemon almond cake.

Robertson Quay is my favourite dining area in Singapore – in fact, I go there almost every week. One of the places that I went to a while back is Toby’s Estate, a renowned coffee chain from Australia.

I first learnt about Toby’s Estate through some friends. They were raving about the coffee, even to the extent of proclaiming it as one of the best coffee joints in town. When I was meeting Beatrice and Velda for brunch, I suggested going to Toby’s Estate, and while the food did not blow us away, the coffee was excellent, and the company was even better.

For those who like to sit in the al fresco area, Toby’s Estate has a few table outside where you can have a cup of coffee facing the river. Otherwise, there’s always indoor seating, but the large communal table in the middle means that it is probably not a place that you would like to linger, especially if you are in a big group.

Most of the items on the food menu were priced below $20, and we shared a mac & cheese, big breakfast, eggs benedict, and prosciutto panini. They were decent, but not fantastic – meaning I would not come here specifically just for the food.

I will be honest: Toby’s Estate is not one of my favourite brunch spots. However, it has very good coffee – in fact I have been here a few times for my caffeine fix – and if you are working or living in the area, I am sure that it will become your new to-go coffee place.
