The Pound

One of my favourite shops to frequent!! The lady owner is also really friendly & welcoming ^^v

Great vibes. Nice coffee. By the time I was here, the cakes were almost all sold out. Must come again for their swiss rolls.

Somehow I have been wanting to visit this place for very long, but it's always difficult because their weekend timings are kinda odd as they open till afternoon on Sat and is closed on Sun. Finally got to visit on Saturday before it closed and was glad that there was still a good selection of cakes available to choose from. Location of the place is rather quiet on a weekend, the mall is also rather quiet not really frequented by many. I thought was a Japanese lady but turned out she is Korean. Her service was quite good and she is pretty soft spoken and manages the cafe alone. There's quite a selection of cakes but I got my attention on two of them, which was the matcha roll and the sweet potato cake. Of course have to start eating the sweet potato one first as the matcha taste is much stronger and might overwhelm the taste buds. Really enjoyed the sweet potato cake. It was light and not sweet, could taste the layers of the sweet potato paste which was smooth. But for me the highlight has to be the matcha roll, seriously one of the best I have tasted. It's slightly on the more pronounced side but I loved it a lot. Looks simple and also aesthetically pleasing. Also ordered an iced royal milk tea. Didn't expect the drink to look like that with a slice of orange. I have to say it was special as the orange slice did enhance the flavours of the milk tea. Very enjoyable tea time at very reasonable prices and place is nice to chill, definitely peaceful. Only feedback was should have more non-coffee drinks for selection. Recommended!

Came here 3x and have not managed to try their elusive tiramisu cake. Nonetheless on my third visit I had the chance to try their sweet potato cake ($5.50) which was delightful tasting. For the price, the quality is really there. The cafe is located inside a pretty old mall, but the Korean lady owner makes up for it with her friendliness. If you’re there, take some time to also appreciate the little details which makes the cafe a little more sophisticated and charming than meets the eye.

Had a black sesame cake on a weekday afternoon. The store owner is very kind and offered me water with the cake. The cake is covered in cream and crunchy crumbles which added more layers to the cake. The cake is decent but a little too sweet for personal preference. The aroma of the black sesame is a little overwhelmed by the sweetness. Nevertheless, an enjoyable experience.

Enjoyed a lovely, peaceful teatime treat at this hidden gem of a cafe - sweet potato cake slice and cappuccino. Cake was light and moist, layered with sweet potato filling and topped with delectable fresh cream. Coffee was good. Will be back to try the other cakes!

I’ve recently discovered this charming Korean cafe. The atmosphere is warm and homely, with an friendly Korean lady who mans the cafe herself. I ordered a cake set, which consists of a cake and a latte of my choice. ($10.50) They also offer a different cake set with an americano, which costs $9.00 . I got the sweet potato cake and an iced cafe latte. The sweet potato cake is an absolute standout – a perfect blend of sweetness and texture. And the coffee goes well with it too. The only downside to this cafe is that it’s pretty small, but a good hidden gem.

I am a regular customer of this coffee and cake shop and my family loves! I have been ordering cupcakes, cakes, roll cakes and cookies and I am always happy with the taste and the packaging! The owner is really kind and nice to the customers. Definitely love to recommend if anyone looking for a nice desert and cakes.
