Another hideout for night owls has opened up at Jalan Besar.

Just a two-minute walk from Jalan Besar MRT station (near late-night dimsum restaurant Swee Choon), Tian Wang (甜旺) serves traditional Chinese desserts till 3am everyday.

While the dessert cafe boasts an eye-catching statement wall of Mahjong tiles with a huge green "huat" (發) in the middle, the desserts here are not mahjong-themed.

Decor

Here's a sneak peek at the cafe interior featuring the Mahjong wall, a foliage wall with a neon pink flamingo sign, and store facade.
