Cafe by day, bistro by night, the Tipsy Penguin exists to provide comfort to Tampines heart-landers. Whether it’s pizzas, burgers or some deep-fried guilty pleasure, most portions are hearty and generous.
Coffee lovers should be comforted to know both Brazilian and Ethiopian beans are served, and their signature Frosty’s Framboise Latte is an iced rendition of the common cup of joe, just elevated with strawberry cream. Your niece will squeal with delight.
We like how the Roasted Pumpkin Soup is served with savory crumblings of truffle bacon croutons. Emperor Prawn Aglio Olio is an easy win with its gently charred scallops and prawns so huge they could be mistaken for crayfish.
The Accidental Cheesecake is warm and crumbly on the sides, with a moist core. Served with honeycomb ice cream, it’s mild enough to win over those weary of rich desserts.
