What is it?

2 Scones 1 Cup is a new café situated in a quiet part of the Section 17 residential area just a stone’s throw from Happy Mansion. Despite the similarities of the name to a certain video (please don’t Google it), this is purely coincidental. The only thing in this cup is coffee. Aside from scones, they also serve local and Western food.

Who is it?

Five friends (Kun Quan, Horng Qing, Eugene, Nicholas and Natasha) who are fresh graduates from various fields decided to band together and open a place serving scones and hot meals. Recipe for the scones come from Kun Quan’s mother who is also one of the partners for this café. Their commitment is to keep things as homely and affordable as possible with emphasis on quality.

Go for

Their scones (original or raisin) served with clotted cream and strawberry jam. Perfect for afternoon tea or as an accompaniment to your main meal. The texture is crumbly without being dry and goes down well with hot tea. For your mains, the Nasi Goreng Kampung, Lamb Rack, Spicy Cream with Seafood Spaghetti and Salmon Fillet come recommended.
