Looked zen from the outside, but boy, I was not prepared for the cacophony of noises when I stepped in. I've always had the impression Hvala was quite veganfriendly so was surprised by the #mylk tax: S$0.20 for soy milk and S$1.00 for oat milk (Oatside). The economy must be weighing down on everyone. This cuppa was middling at best; I could hardly detect any smokiness of houjicha, which is a roasted green tea. Un-zen ambience aside this place is great for counting pebbles if you get a window seat by the low tables. #reviewwithaview #ofstones
