It’s only natural that the most aesthetic building in Tanjong Pagar houses the most aesthetic cafe as well.
Cafe Kreams is a Korean autumn-themed cafe in Maxwell Chambers, offering a range of locally-roasted coffee and desserts.
Is Cafe Kreams worth the money?
Considering the relatively higher prices at the Maxwell Chambers cafe, most of you might be wondering if the food and drinks here are even worth it.
One of the best coffee in Tanjong Pagar
Certainly, you’re paying a premium for the aesthetics. But, the coffee is honestly decent, and I would say they’re reasonably priced.
Again, Cafe Kreams roasts their own coffee, allowing them to control the quality of their coffee beans, and to offer a wider range of profiles.
For example, the Iced Long Black ($6.5) is acidic and recommended with the Special Blend for its fruity undertones, utilising beans from Kenya and Colombia.
Meanwhile, we recommend Iced Latte ($7.5) with the House Blend, a mixture of Guatemala Antigua, Brazil Cerrado & Ethiopian Yirgacheffe. The dark roast, with the milk, places emphasis on the chocolate and nutty flavours.
Signature Dalgona Latte
What surprised me the most was its Dalgona Latte ($11), which wasn’t your Circuit Breaker whipped coffee. You’d have to be insane to pay $11 for whipped instant coffee at a cafe anyway.
Instead, dalgona is a traditional Korean candy that is similar to honeycomb toffee. It added just a touch of sweetness for a pleasant mix of astringency and sugar. I thought this was going to be saccharine and artificial like certain types of caramel lattes, but I stand corrected.
