Rest your tired feet after hours of shopping at this chic cafe, which serves a menu inspired by Thai, Italian, and European flavours. The Ninth Cafe is a good place to relax while enjoying a lunch break of Fried Crispy Wontons with Shrimp, cooked Pad Thai style and garnished with sprigs of coriander. There’s also a piquant Thai Green Curry with Roti, a creamy gravy with chunks of tender chicken and a side of crispy flatbread to mop up all the delicious sauce. For more Western flavours, try the generously loaded Seafood Spaghetti, with prawns and clams tossed into a plate of steamy, silky pasta. Another must-try dish is the Sticky Rice with Sirloin Beef.

While the sticky glutinous rice is more commonly found in Thai desserts, the combination here is an interesting one of sweet and savoury, laced with hints of black pepper. Don’t leave The Ninth Cafe without trying their cakes. The Thai Tea Crepe Cake is a star item here, which you’ll see many tables around you savouring it delightedly. An Instagram-worthy dessert, it’s crafted with layer upon layer of soft, pillowy crepes brushed with a delicate French cream, and drizzled with a Thai milk tea sweet sauce -- get out cameras to capture picture-perfect dessert moments.
