We Found Your Cheese
In the Year of the Rat, we’re focused on helping you find cheese. All 5 kinds of it.
In the popular book “Who moved my cheese”, the author writes about how you can manage the many changes in your life and achieve what you want in life i.e. your cheese. At CapitaLand INSIDE, we’re sticking to what we know best. Actual cheese. Both of the literal and literary kind. To aid you in your search for cheese during the Year of the Rat, we’ve rounded up for the following for your consideration.
1. Cheese Cake
Sometimes, the classics just work. Cheese cake. A dense, rich and luscious cheese cake with a golden graham cracker crust is all you need. Think cheese cake and the world-renowned “The Cheesecake Factory” comes to mind.
You can stop thinking about it and act. You can now get cheese cakes from The Cheesecake Factory in Singapore. Head to Beverly Hills Cheesecake for your slice of this pop culture and culinary icon.
Local cheese cake hero ain’t here to play second fiddle either. Cat & The Fiddle offers classic cheese cake styles, but also serves up interesting flavours with a local twist. Be sure to try their milo dinosaur or durian-flavoured cheese cakes for something different.
Can’t decide? You can get your paws on them all too. Cat & The Fiddle allows you mix and match to create an assortment of your choice.
Eat first. Diet later. Besides if you're feeling guilty after these sweet treats, we've got the workout to get your fighting fit and fast!.
2. Cheese Soft Serves
If regular ice cream doesn’t quite hit the spot and you want it richer and creamier, say no more. The solution to your cravings would be cheese soft serve. Available at Tokyo Milk Cheese Factory, this Japanese dessert store has been delighting everyone with their popular cheese cookies, but do you know that they also serve soft serves at their stores?
A milky mix of gouda and cream cheese, the cheese soft serve is just savoury-sweet goodness. If you want to maximise your cheese experience, ask for the ‘Signature Cow Cow Sundae’ which includes a slice of cheese cake and a cheese cookie.
3. Cheese Teas
Cheese on tea may seem like the weirdest combination, but popular bubble tea shops like HeyTea and Nayuki have elevated this interesting mix to delight even the pickiest taste buds.
A current major food trend, the savoury and smooth cream cheese concoction is layered over the bubble tea of your choice to create a sweet and rich drink.
Skip the straw and drink straight from the cup to experience the different textures in a single cup. If you weren’t addicted to bubble tea before, cheese tea is bound to get you hooked.
4. Cheesy Pizzas
You may not even notice it because when done well, the cheese on the pizza melds beautifully with the tangy tomato sauce, creating the best platform for all the other yummy toppings.
In fact, sometimes it is so good that you can skip the toppings altogether.
So say goodbye to intense debates on whether pineapples or anchovies belong on pizzas. Say annyeonghaseyo to Pizza Maru instead. With over 650 stores across Korea, Pizza Maru is now in Singapore and they are bringing on the cheese and more.
The cheese pull on their Chicago-styled pizzas are totally instagrammable. Skip the regular crust and get the special double cheese twist crust for that extra oomph.

5. Just Cheese
Purists rejoice! If you truly care about your camembert and want to create your own fantasy cheese board, head to Raffles City Market Place at Raffles City Singapore. The supermarket has a major section dedicated to cheese.
Not more getting fed-up over not getting enough feta.
Featuring a huge variety of cheese, from prepackaged cheese or freshly cut cheese, you’ll find what you want here.
Don't lose track of time while trying to find your fromage. You're in a supermarket. Remember to pick up your citruses - the hit of acidity will balance the richness in the cheese. While you’re at it, grab some crackers and one more bottle of wine. One can never have too much of them. Cheers!
