Canele Macarons & Dr. Cafe

                             

First time trying out macarons from Canele after seeing Clicknetwork "Tried and Tested" saying that it is nice! Bought different flavours which are Rose, Cookies and Cream, Salted Caramel, Chocolate Hazelnut! One cost about $2 and the size is pretty big. Among all, I really really love the Chocolate Hazelnut, it taste like kinder bueno to me. I bought it at the Dhoby Gaunt Outlet, their other outlets are Shaw Centre, Robertson Walk, Raffles City. Will def buy that flavour again!!

At Dhoby Gaunt, there is also a cafe which is suitable for chilling and some quiet studying. It is called Dr. Cafe. The chairs there are big and comfy. However, you may want to request for their drinks to be less sweet. But it is worth going if you are looking for a quiet environment when you are in town!
