Despite being located on renascent Ann Siang Road, the hustle and bustle of Chinatown seems light years away. The front of house showcases beautiful lacquer ware and porcelain while the back spots a cozy parcel-sized dining area, decorated to resemble a playground for Little Odd Forest creatures.
We went for tea and what we had were exquisitely presented and adequately flavourful.
Served in a kawaii-neh birdcage (get yours from the Singapore Botanical Gardens gift shop), we found peck-only servings of roasted garlic, broccoli with mayonnaise, seaweed, potato salad, pate, plain cracker amongst the other unrecognizable items.
For dessert, I tried the green tea cheesecake with green tea ice cream. The lack of a creamy texture made this an unorthodox cheesecake but I wasn't about to hand over my spoon anytime soon.
Wacha made me think of retirement plans. Wacha: sui generis amongst mass commodization and soulless franchises.
