International boutique coffee shops seem to be the trend here in Singapore. Though I'm not that familiar with this one, wifey's officemates were raving about this place. This place has its roots from New York.
Since we were in the area anyway, we decided to give this a try. Lady M, by the way, is located in Marina Square's Dining Edition. Now, lets see how they fare against Singapore's coffee shops.
Our Orders
Lady M Mille Crepe (Left) - $7.50 and Strawberry Mille Feuille (Right) - $8.00
We were not able to take pictures of the drinks but coffee was nice. The real reason though for the visit was not the coffee or tea but the cakes. Lady M serves a "Mille Crepe" cake. What is it? Well, lets just say its layers and layers of crepe and creme formed as a cake. Does it work? Definitely! It had a smooth silky feeling in the mouth and it wasn't sweet.
The Strawberry Mille Feuille is a different story though. We were expecting something similar to the Lady M cake but unfotunately it wasn't. It just didn't have anything special to it. Not even sure where the "Mille Feuille" came from as it didn't have any. It's not that it wasn't good but at $8.00 a slice there must be something more from a cake.
Price and Value
We paid $40 for 2 cafes and 4 drinks (combination of coffee and tea). That's a bit too steep for a weekend coffee for 5 people given that we only had 2 slices of cake. I wished the strawberry mille feuille had more substance or even surprise on it but sadly its difficult to justify the value. It's worth a try though specially the signature Lady M Mille Crepe.
