The one thing good about this outlet is that it isnn't that crowded, attributed by its location which is nt very accessible if you are taking public transport.
Therefore, you can expect a shorter queue as well as avoiding seeing or hearing the famous statement such as "Despite doubling our staff and increaing our production efficiency , we may nt be able to serve you promptly as desired, blar blar blar", by another donut franchise. Haha.
As for the donuts themselves, the flavours are more or less the same as that of Donut Factory. And as what Dilly had mentioned, they put their donuts out on display, thu making them cold and not so visually appealing as seeing it coming fresh out of the oven.
Overall, the donuts are just so-so and the only plus point is being the relatively shorter queue.

I know the owner of this cafe and decided to give it a try when me and my friends are nearby.
The placer is a bit small but cosy. The tables are tend to be a bit close together co not much or privacy.
The kitchen cum bar is open concept. So prepared to smell a lot of different food being cooked! Haa.....
The food there got salad, sandwiches etc and I was recommended to try Slow-Roasted Pulled Pork. It was good! The meat is tender, no fats and simply melts in my mouth. Hee.... If you cannot decided what you wanna to eat and got a group of frens, maybe you can try the platter of sandwiches, which come with soup as well.
Their desserts also got a lot, cakes to pudding. I loved their chocolate cake pudding. Not too sweet and not too bitter as well. Jz nice.
The place tend to attract more students as it is linked to the tution centre above the cafe.
Give this place a try and discover it yourself!

I am also a fan of TCC. Always would try to hang out there to chit chat with my frens whiel waiting for the movie to start.
It is a place that serves a wide variety of coffee and tea, both hot and cold. I loved their Jap red bean ice blend drink, and other special types of drink that they had mixed. Their coffee offer the widest choice to choose from. Usually I will jz go for their mocha. Hee....
Their food, both snacks and main, are great. I loved their wedges, fried mushrooms and many more. Main dish, I like their chicken chop together with a curry. Nice!
The deco in this outlet is good espcially inside the sofa areas. If you had not been there, give this place a try when you walk past it next time! Rememebr to ask for air con seats to try out their sofa ok! Hee....

Decided to try their donuts when 8 Days recommended their donuts. The queue was not that long but still a good 20 mins wait.
The variety of the donuts is not a lot compared to others. Got an assorted set. After tasting a few, not really impressed with the donuts, find them a bit too sweet for liking. Too me it is jz like overated dough!

Had been to this cafe once with my friends. That was my first time eating there though I had walked past it several times while strolling along Singapore River.
Me and my friends ordered a couple of dishes to share among us. Our order included Fritto Misto (a seafood platter with crab cakes, prawn tails), Pollo E Peperoni pizza (consisting of tomato, mozzarella, chicken, bell pepper and basil) and Al Crudo pizza ( consisting Rucola, Parma Ham, Tomato and Mozzarella Cheese). The taste of the platter and pizzas were really quite nice. The crust of the pizza were not too thick and were done crisp and not heavy on the flour. The ingredients were fresh and juicy.
The cafe is famous for its wide range of desserts such as homemade gelato, pastries and celebratory cakes. So we decided to try some of the pastries out. We ordered a total of 5 different pastries, which is called Pasticceria in Italian.
They were Diplomatica, Musa, Cassata Siciliana, Soffiato , and Tiramisu. All of them really tasted good and nt very sweet as well. Recalling all thi smakes me drool!! *Slurp*
So for those who are more health conscious. do not worry!!!
There are many more different types of pastries that I will go back to try as well as the gelato. All in all, I would recommend this place for people who have a weakness for nice pastries.

Been there once before both 4th level and 8th level. Personally I prefer the 8th level as the room are larger and the sofa and everything seems in better shape.
One thing that impress me on the 8th level is they used wireless mic instead of wired mics and it is a big plus. Hee..
The drinks there are quite standard nothing to shout out about but getting on the smaller side.
The songs are up to date but sometimes the system reaction to the remote control is a bit slow.
One thing good about Kbox is if you booked the room until midnight and no one books the room after midnight they will aloow you to sing until someone is taking over the room.

Had been to this outlet several times before. I would say that the service there is quite good and the staff are very helpful. The view there is great, if you are seated at the balcony area. Also, there is a lesser crowd there as compared to teh one at Bugis and thus, one need not have to wait in the queue for a long time. Normally when I go there, I can go in straightaway without waiting at all. (",)
As for the food, my personal favorite are the Billy's BBQ Buffalo Ribs, Honey Stung Crispy Golden Chicken, Yin & Yang Burger, American Fries and Onio Rings. The taste is good and value for money. Also, do order the lemon tea as it comes in a min pitcher which can be shared among two people.
I would say that the place has good food for money and it is very accessible as well, since The Central is directly above Clarke Quay MRT (NEL ). So do go there and give it a try.

Was at this outlet a couple of weeks ago.. As compared to the outlet at Raffles City, I felt that the service here was seriously much better. Firstly, instead of you having to fin your seats, they will usher you to your seats and let you have a choice of seats if the place isn't very crowded.
Secondly, the staff service was prompt and helpful in explaining some of the items on the menu to us. Thirdly, the staff brought two glasses of iced water to us even without us asking for it and somemore, iced water could be taken on your own from the bread counter as I saw later.
So I ordered a set of CRISPY COMBO, which was a Golden combination of crispy fried chicken fish fillets, prawn dippers, rodeo wings, mixed vegs & fries comes with 2 dips, B.B.Q. sauce & chef's special sauce ( which I think is mayo mixed with abit of wasabi). I must say that the food also tasted better than that at Raffles City.
So overall, I would give it a thumbs up and go back for more if the crowd is nt that huge. Lastly, from time to time, they have special promotions for credit card payments, so do check it out with the staff when you are paying your bill.

If memory serves me correct, I have only eaten twice in that restaurant and both times, I left with a not so good impression.
The first time round, was with a grp of polymates. And one of the guy's meal came only after everyone were already halfway through their meals and his order was nothing complicated that required a long time to prepare.
The second time, again the same thing happened. And like what Polarbear had mentioned, the only thing nice there is perhaps the bread, which is free flow. But hey cmon, I go there nt to just eat bread loh!!!
SO overall, I dnt think I would go back to this outlet anymore till their standards improve.

Ytd was at the Starbucks Raffles City to talk abt some insurance thingy with agent and gf. SO after we were done, gf nated to eat at the Cafe Cartel next door. So despite the poor experiences I had in the past I decided to give it one more chance. But still they disappointed me. I ordered two dishes but they only keyed in one!!! Luckily I discovered it quite early on else I would have been sitting there waiting in vain for my meal. So therefore, its proven to me that this outlet's service still is nt up to standard and needs lots of improvement.

I went to K-BoX to Sing last friday night.... It was fun and I was so impressed by the size of this thing.....
We were late.. and thats all because of the GAGA Girls I was with and then we couldn't find the right room, because the place is freaking huge...... I thought the K-Box at level 4 was huge, wait till you see the level 8 Branch..... Goodness.. this is Singapore, not MUMBAI.......
Since the GAGA girls are equally blur as me, we asked for room 26 at Level 4 even though we were repeatedly told its room 26 at Level 8. My clever brain thought the level 4 K-Box is huge enough and there could only be one. But as we were brought to the room 28 at level 4 I rushed in with a loud HELLO.... and I was greeted with 8 Strangers with SHOCK Faces.. Talk about most embarassing moments.
Then we proceeded to the level 8... and when the lift door opened...... WELCOME TO MUMBAI style K-BOX.... It was so huge and there were lotz of servers all around.. saying GOOD EVENING, HOW ARE YOU to us.... The room was a comfortable size for 8 or 10...
Songs were pretty updated with the newest singable mandaring and english songs. We didn't check out the hindi songs but I'm sure its as updated if not Better.... The common toilet was a screw up, but just don't drink so much, I think its fine. We had quite a great time and later into the night, our Hong Kong girlfriends went Crazy and danced on the couches threatening to Tuo Diao Tuo Diao......
Hm... I think that last point just invited a huge percentage of Singaporean men to visit K-Box at level 8 Cineleisure.. As such I shall stop here.....
Tuo Diao Tuo Diao..... Shang Yi Tuo DIao Tuo Diao........
Tong Tong Tuo DIao Tuo Diao.......
