The Baker's Story
Have you heard of The Baker's Story? Opened in 2004 at the nondescript Sin Ming Centre, The Baker's Story has grown steadily, winning over customers with its honest to goodness creations of Cheese Brownies. Chef and owner Eric Tan has created these one of a kind cheese brownie using chocolate brownie and cream cheese.
After 8 years and amassing a pool of regulars, The Baker's Story opened its second outlet at Orchid Hotel at Tanjong Pagar. From the original cheese brownie, the store has built on its popularity to spin off more offerings with an expanded selection of seven varieties.
The box contains the original bestselling Cheese Brownie ($2.20), Mint Cheese Brownie ($2.30), Orange Cheese Brownie ($2.80), Chef's personal favourite the Crunchy Cheese Brownie ($2.80) and other non cheese brownie flavours including Banana Brownie ($2.20) and Walnut Chocolate Brownie ($2.30).
Giving the traditional brownie an interesting twist by adding the cheese, the cheese brownies have a fuller flavour, velvety smoothness and richer texture.

Si Chuan Dou Hua @ TOP of UOB Plaza
Sichuan cuisine is not just about their spicy food. There is more to their spicy and numbing flavours. (麻辣). For a limited period from now to 31 July 2013, Si Chuan Dou Hua introduces the Petites Selection to showcase the many unknown and robust flavours of Sichuan cuisine with a collection of 30 tapas sized offerings designed by Si Chuan Dou Hua's maestros Zeng Feng, Peter Tsang and Leung Wing Chung.
Spinach with Ginger Sauce
Savouring in a myriad of flavour, we get to sample an eclectic selection of the tapas sized offerings. The Spinach with Ginger Sauce is a refreshing and tangy combination of the aromatic herb ginger with vinegar and salt.
Sliced Pork in Garlic and Chilli Sauce
The Sliced Pork in Garlic and Chilli Sauce makes up of a blend of ground garlic, chilli oil, soya sauce and sugar that has a medley of spicy garlic and chilli flavour.
Chilled Sliced Radish Wrapped with Sliced Carrot
The exquisite labour intensive Chilled Sliced Radish Wrapped with Sliced Carrot has a subtle sweet and sour flavour.
Chilled Sliced Duck Wrapped with Egg Yolk
One of my favourite of the Petites Selections is the Chilled Sliced Duck Wrapped with Egg Yolk. The salty flavour is made up of salt, huatiao wine and other condiments is one of the predominant flavours in Sichuan cuisine.
Prawn in Spicy Ma La Sauce
Ma La flavour is one of the most significant, popular and recognisable flavours of Sichuan cusine made up of a piquant mix of peppercorn, chilli powder and salt. This is showcased in the Prawn in Spicy Ma La Sauce.
