A Chocolate Factory at Dempsey Hill?

I first discovered Mr. Bucket Chocolaterie through their Sin Ming shop as I was walking around the area looking for somewhere to eat at lunch time around 3 years ago. Went inside the shop and there started my fixation for chocolate bonbons and pralines. I follow them on IG and learned that they have opened a shop in Dempsey Hill. Not just a shop but a chocolate factory. And last June, I was able to visit Mr. Bucket on a hot Saturday afternoon after work. I was seated at the alfresco area since there were no available seats inside the restaurant. To be honest, the design of the alfresco area is better than the interior dining area. The ordering & payment process were very easy. Just scan a QR code, pay for the meal, then eat. The staff were also nice and accommodating even though I was outside. I ordered a ham and cheese toastie, their signature chocolate dome cake, and the iced cacao husk lemon tea. Everything was delicious. I don’t eat veggies, but I was able to finish the salad included in the toastie set. That says a lot! I certainly did hums of approval while eating the chocolate cake. It was rich and just the right amount of sweetness that I want. What surprised me was the iced cacao husk lemon tea. It paired well with what I ate. It became a palate-cleanser for me since it’s a bit sour and not that sweet unlike the normal iced lemon teas you get around Singapore. I had a good time here eating while journaling plus I get to people-watch also. After finishing my meal, I went inside and looked at the factory. I also browsed the retail area but did not buy anything since I couldn’t find the bottled chocolate drinks that I once bought at their Sin Ming shop. The restaurant allows diners with pets at the alfresco area. They have treats for pets too. A note to myself would be to come back here with friends so I could try the other items as well. #wheretogo #mrbucketchocolaterie #dempseyhill #singapore #visitsingapore #chocolate #tripblazers
