When you reach the Chinese pharmacy storefront, find the hidden staircase at the back. You'll be guided by the dingy walls, each proclaiming: Mum's Not Home.
The whole place is curated in a jazzy fashion, inclining towards a hippie boho finish. The copious use of huge plants, floor cushions and neon lights is enough to delight anyone seeking a photographic corner. On one side, there are kitsch trinkets and clothes for sale, and the middle, a sprawl of lowrise tables and seats, each stylishly placed beside pots or walls.
While their menu is limited, the drinks and cakes are nothing to sneeze at. The Butterfly tea is a sweet concoction that changes its colour with lime juice, turning it into an iridescent well of delight. The Sweet Potato Cheesecake is heavier in mouth-feel than normal cheesecakes, but the flavour is a great medley of sweet and savory. The crunchy seeds also helped to hold everything together.
