I was on a boring shopping trip in Orchard Road, Singapore lately. Boring, because I was alone, and also because I wasn't in the mood of splurging.

Had a sudden craving for dessert, the need for some sugar to give me some adrenalin rush. So I wandered around and this shop in 313 (the one beside Orchard Central) caught my attention.

If not mistaken I tried their parfait before in a separate outlet somewhere (can't remember) and it was an "ok only" dessert.

However I saw that they were introducing the "Heavenly Compote Waffle", supposedly something new and popular from Japan.
