Panna cotta and tiramisu in a heartland kopitiam? That's right.
Il Piccolo, which sells restaurant-standard Italian food at hawker prices, has joined Botak Jones in this little corner of Toa Payoh North.
In fact, this heartland enclave - one of Singapore's best-kept secrets - has become a mini cosmopolitan food hub of sorts, with Japanese, Thai, American, Italian and local fare.
We tried Il Piccolo's sweeet offerings today, and were suitably impressed.
The panna cotta was extremely smooth and light, and not overly sweet.
A tiny complaint, though, was that we would have preferred just a hint of milk, not half a carton.
Sweeet factor: 3/5
Same complaint for the tiramisu - the taste of milk was just too strong. I would have opted for alcohol in place of milk!
But for kopitiam prices, who's complaining?
Sweeet factor: 2.5/5
