Dong Po Colonial Cafe @ Kandahar Street



Dong Po Colonial Cafe is strictly for those who want a slice of the past. Eat and live in it, literally.





A corner full of knick knacks from yesteryears.



Idea for a dining table - chess pieces as a decor!



More of the other old school themed tables.



Coffee cannot get more old school than this - a hefty price to pay for nostalgia. Coffee, toast and eggs went for a hefty song of $4.50.



Kaya toasts to round it off, yet another ordinary dish. Strange that they sold brown kaya in a jar, but when spread on toast it was green. 



Never complete without eggs, this was possibly the best attempt by the cafe - runny eggs.



3 Hole Cookie ($1.90)

I call this traffic light cookie with the colours peeping out so beautifully like this - ordinary cookie at best.



Coconut Macaroon ($1.90)

A friend recommended their macaroon, note the double o.



Turned out to be a hard, crusty and dense confectionery to attempt.



Butterfly cupcake that I spotted at Glacier Bakery previously. Dry buttercake meets buttercream, and that was just about it.



So long, farewell Dong Po! It was a nice walk down memory lane but just not good enough for another return.
