Tom N Toms Coffee – Korean Coffee Power!

Rating:

By Veron Ang

Fans of Korean drama shows and handsome Korean actors would be pleased to know that another Korean export has hit our shores, in the form of coffee. Boasting over 100 outlets in Korea, the Tom N Toms Coffee chain has arrived to grab a slice of the espresso coffee market in Singapore.

While Korea isn’t exactly known for her coffee, our caffeine-loving population would certainly welcome an additional option to get a quick pick-me-up!

The ordering process is very much like your typical Starbucks and Coffee Bean, although prices are slightly cheaper.

Over here, they give you a disc-shaped pager that vibrates once your coffee is ready to be collected.

The cappuccino is pretty decent, with a nice, creamy froth that rides like silk on top of it. I like it unsweetened. Does anyone else drink cappuccino without sugar?

There is also some attempt at coffee art which, even if not perfect, is always appreciated.

Colourful cheery murals adorn the walls.

Getting a cuppa here is basically a fuss-free process. Next time round I’ll probably get some of that toasted pretzel to go along!

  High five! I prefer the traditional Ya Kun type of coffee, too! There’s something very appealing about the taste and aroma that you can’t get in the regular Starbucks coffee. Hmm. Depending on my mood though, sometimes I still love a frothy cup of cappuccino!

the thick toast is a must-try! Probably the biggest and thickest toast in town, complete with whipped cream. Don’t recommend to those who only want small bites.

  Whoa! Whipped cream on toast sounds yummy, yummy! I gotta keep a lookout for that one on my next visit. I heard people raving about the pretzels, too.

Tried the pepperoni pretzel (if I didn’t get it wrong) and pizza. Freshly baked and the serving is decent. The tea is over-rated though.

  Thanks for the recommendations. I heard the pretzels are good, but I didn’t realise they have pizza!
  I’m glad I’m a coffee person :) Last I checked (sometime late July) they had a 1-for-1 promotion at VivoCity for the coffee drinks like mocha, cappuccino and Americano.

    It’s a flattish pizza with lots of cheese. I’m neither a coffee drink nor tea connoiseur but felt that the tea tasted very thin although there were 2 Lipton (if I remember correctly) tea bags hanging from the side.
