Sick of the usual gelato/ice cream flavours like chocolate and vanilla? Here’s one for you, but you gotta keep your eyes peeled as it’s pretty easy to miss — Cotta, a specialty dessert cafe hidden in an attic space right opposite the bustling KBBQ restaurants we usually frequent Tanjong Pagar for.

Located on the unassuming second floor of a shophouse, this little cafe is the perfect quaint getaway for a quiet tea break in the middle of a bustling city — and they serve up a myriad of yummy desserts and drinks with unique flavours.

Check out their specialty drinks that don’t only taste amazing, but are also absolutely gorgeous for your IG feeds and TikTok — the Military Latte (S$8), a tri-coloured camo-inspired drink made with espresso, matcha and chocolate, the Coconut Charcoal Einspenner (S$8), The Cotta (S$9), an espresso with pistachio creme and milk, and the Orange Osmanthus Cloud (S$8).

For those looking to add a little zest to their coffee, try the Orange Dark Mocha (S$6) for a rich and aromatic cuppa. If you’re more into the classics, there’s also the usual Black (S$4.50) and White (S$5) coffees

Don’t worry if you’re not a coffee person, there’s also tea and other non-coffee options like Matcha Latte (S$6), Chai Latte (S$6), Mint Hot Chocolate (S$5) and more.

Of course, you’d need a little treat to go with your beverage of choice here. The cafe is known for their gelato (from S$5) – and you’ll probably find a bunch of flavours that you’ve never tried before here!) — Dark Chocolate French Rose, Gorgonzola with Candied Pecans, Muscat Grape Sake, Dark Chocolate Baijiu with Applewood Smoked Longans and many more.
