Little House of Dreams: Sweet Pink Cafe in Tiong Bahru

21 December 2020 in EATS, SINGAPORE

It’s the most wonderful time of the year! 🎄 December is, and has always been my most favourite time of the year. :) This year is extra special because I recently received some absolutely incredible news! I will share more soon, but the news I received was an end of the year surprise that saved this entire challenging year for me. It’s a special kind of blessing and I’ve just been so happy. 😊😊😊

I didn’t mean to go quiet on my blog for so long, but there’s been a lot happening with work, small Christmas get togethers and shopping, so the posts that I’ve been meaning to share for December had to take a backseat. I’m still hoping to share my last posts for 2020 here, including my Christmas photo diary that hopefully will be up soon!

*UPDATE: Little House of Dreams cafe in Tiong Bahru has closed down in Sep 2021. :( The brand will move to The Grandstand (200 Turf Club Road, S287994) and run a takeaway counter.

For today, I wanted to share about this sweet girly cafe in Tiong Bahru, because I went to this cafe recently for an afternoon tea with my sister to celebrate my happy news. :)

(Note: If you like pink girly cafes, I also shared about Cake Spade in this post, a cake cafe housed inside a pink shophouse!)

Even though Singapore is a small sized city, there are so many cafes everywhere to choose from! To me, picking your favourite cafes is very personal and everyone seems to have a different one. I’ve shared some of my favourite cafes over the years from Hong Kong to Singapore here on this blog, and personally, I tend to search for cozy, bright and comfortable spaces, with warm vibes where I feel like I can sit with my laptop to blog or settle in with a good book. The menu doesn’t have to be big, but should contain good quality tea, food and bakes. :) How do you choose your favourite cafe? 

I like Little House of Dreams for the pink and sweet vibes, as well as their pretty looking cakes which taste good too! I also enjoy looking out the window and seeing the view of the Tiong Bahru neighbourhood. :) 

I also have to mention the little cookie that is served with their coffees and teas, because I love it haha! It’s a small detail, but I particularly like it when my tea is served with a biscuit or cookie, and this one (which I think is a cranberry cookie?) Is delicious! 

Little House of Dreams also changes the decoration over their entrance every few months, which I like to admire if I happen to walk past. My first photo above shows their current Christmas decor, which I love, because I love everything Christmas! You can browse their Instagram for their past entryway decorations.

Is this cafe your type or do you prefer something else? Do feel free to share your recommendations with me, as I’m always up for discovering new favourites! Talk soon!

Today marks my 5th year anniversary of moving back Today marks my 5th year anniversary of moving back to Singapore! 💫 26 June 2017, I said goodbye to Hong Kong and still to this day, miss aspects of my life there. But Singapore has been great for me and is home now. 😊

5 years back in SG has let me start another new chapter and offered me plenty of new experiences and challenges. I've been through successes, failures and standstills. It hasn't been easy, that's for sure, but I'm happy to share that at this 5 year mark, I'm finally in a contented, balanced and happy place. 😊 It definitely took work, trial and error and heaps of God's blessings, but I'm here. 🌻

HK, you're always a special place to me, so hopefully, I'll get to see you again soon. 💖

*Feb was such a full month! It was also a month that marked the closing of one chapter and the beginning of another. 😊 Some of my favourite moments:
- Lovely drawings at @natmuseum_sg and wanting to buy so many of the related merch from the museum shop (I didn't!)
- Lovely lunches/dinners + great people & conversations. Incredibly grateful for the people in my life. 🌟
- The cutest exhibition featuring @angkukuehgirl
- Visiting a very nostalgic restaurant @oldschooldelights - brings back all my childhood memories!
- Pink skies 💗
- Attended a tour of the 'Mapping the World' exhibition at @nlb.singapore - fascinating and insightful! 

Other moments that couldn't fit in here: my first VR experience at the ArtScience Museum, shopping and gifts and more new books! 😄 Ending the month with a thankful heart.

Saying farewell and saying hello to new chapters.☘
Let's go, 2022. ☘ Let's go, 2022. ☘
2021 has been a roller coaster ride - up and down, 2021 has been a roller coaster ride - up and down, down and up and upside down. 🎢 The year zoomed past - I feel like I got on the ride, excited and expectant and then realised I got on the craziest roller coaster there is. I haven't really gotten the chance to catch my breath or pause and have a moment to reflect. 

Overall, it's been a good year (and it's such a blessing to say this in yet another challenging year) but I would very much like to be able to take a break and slow down sometimes. 

With all its craziness, 2021 has also taken me by surprise, in some major and wonderful ways. I'm incredibly thankful for it all and want to look forward to 2022 with faith and hope. 

As this roller coaster ride comes to an end soon, I'm getting ready to get off, steady myself and hopefully the next ride is more a carousel instead? 🎠 See you soon, 2022. 🌠
It's been a long and tiring year, 2021. I recognis It's been a long and tiring year, 2021. I recognise my own privilege, and I'm always thankful for good health, steady work and kindness from people around me. But I'll readily say 2021 has been a tough chapter. 

I've felt stressed and overwhelmed a lot this year. I try my best and give it my all, and everyone tells me I need to take a breath, hand the burden to the Lord and let it go. True and good advice. 😄 

Today is a public holiday in SG and I'm on full holiday mode. I've been indoors so much I feel like I'm rediscovering my city girl life again. 😂 I got up at noon and spent the day with @wording_art at one of our favourite spots in the city: Gardens by the Bay. 🌳 We ate, laughed and took a walk in the sunshine and breeze. Then we took pictures of ourselves and our shadows, because we started doing this when we used to live in Hong Kong. We think back fondly on our HK days and talk about going back when it's safe to travel again. 

Should definitely take a break more often. 🌞
