CHIZU & HONZU - Tantalizing Snacks and Refreshing Drinks

Hello everyone 😊
I hope that you are doing great as always.
I would also like to wish Happy Eid or Selamat Hari Raya Aidilfitri to those who are celebrating around the world. 😍
Of course, when it comes to festivities, there will be a LOT of food. 😂


Omnomnom...

Anyway, for this entry I would like to introduce CHIZU & HONZU. CHIZU is a shop that specializes in creating unique beverages made from Japanese Cheese combined with various types of coffee or tea whereas HONZU is a shop which highlights their specialty croissants with a creative twist. Couldn't get both of them? That's where CHIZU & HONZU arrives, bringing the best of both worlds under one roof 👍

So, what have I ordered?





Since CHIZU & HONZU specializes in croissants, well, that's precisely what I've ordered 👍



CHIZU & HONZU's specialty croissants
From top left, clockwise: Dark Chocolate Croissant, Cheddar Cheese Croissant, Salted Mentaiko Croissant, Garlic Cream Croissant, Japanese Cheese Croissant and Original Croissant

  1. Original Croissant - Good ol' flaky and buttery croissant. 😊
  2. Japanese Cheese Croissant - Topped with a creamy cheesy topping. Hints of subtle salty sweetness makes this particular croissant a yummy choice. Cheese lovers would enjoy this 😘
  3. Salted Mentaiko Croissant - Brushed with salted mentaiko (pollock fish roe). It is not too salty but the savoury taste reminds me of the ocean. 🐟
  4. Cheddar Cheese Croissant - Topped with a creamy and tangy cheddar cheese swirl sprinkled with dried chives. I really like this one 😘👍 A must have for cheese lovers 💛
  5. Garlic Cream Croissant - Brushed with tasty garlic cream and garnished with parsley flakes. OMG!!! This is so my FAVOURITE choice 😍👍 It is delicious as the garlic is not too overpowering. Any garlic bread fans? This croissant is the perfect substitute for those who wanted to switch up their garlic bread game. A lovely accompaniment to piping hot soups on a rainy day 💗
  6. Dark Chocolate Croissant - Topped with dark chocolate and garnished with almonds and white chocolate drizzle. I like this because it is not too sweet. Perfect for a light sweet finish after gobbling down savoury treats 😆👍
My pick? Definitely the Garlic Cream Croissant 💗💗💗

As for drinks, I've settled down with something light and refreshing after devouring savoury and creamy croissants. 😉👍

So, what have I selected?



Super Season Fruit Tea

All drinks at CHIZU & HONZU come in environmentally-friendly adorable cups. 
No straws needed. 👍  This refreshing drink has hints of tropical passionfruit and infused with real fruits for extra burst of fruity flavours: calamansi lime, red apples and watermelon. A great drink to cool you down on a hot day or after eating that piping hot bowl of oden 😆👍


Overall, my dining experience at CHIZU & HONZU is great. 😊👍
The food and drinks are delicious and reasonably priced. 😋
The staffs are kind and helpful and the cafe's ambiance is calm and bright. 👍
CHIZU & HONZU is a good place to chill after a tiring day of shopping, hanging out with your friends, enjoying a quiet date with your beloved or just simply for having a quality me-time.
It is also a good place for organizing a cupsleeve event for Kpop fan groups 👍

Thank you CHIZU & HONZU for the great experience.
Will definitely visit you again for the yummy croissants. 😋👍
