A cafe specialising in Western and Malaysian cuisine recently opened in Aljunied.
Known as Teahouse 1973, they wish to present the best of Malaysian culture and cuisine with their traditional recipes handed down through the ages.
Their high tea set for two costs just S$35, which as you may have noticed, is considerably cheaper than many places in Singapore.
S$35 high tea set for two
Available between 2pm and 5pm on Tuesday and Friday, the high tea set features "freshly homemade cakes" and a pot of fruit tea.
The selection of cakes also changes every day.
A customer who visited on Feb. 17 noted that the high tea set prices were nett.
Here are some photos of the high tea experience shared to Facebook group Let's Go Singapore by one Jieyin Cheah.
