It is said that Lady M New York pioneered in making Mille Crêpes which are 20 layers of handmade paper-thin crepes stacked up with pastry cream and caramelized at the top.
First Impressions
From the outside, the confection boutique already standout because of its bright lights. Their "Lady M" signage design is very minimalistic.
The interiors are contemporary with furnishings that are dominantly white. The ambiance is serene which is perfect for afternoon coffee and sweet indulgence.
The Staff
The server that assisted us seemed timid. She hardly spoke and simply did some gestures to communicate with us. At first, we thought she has a speaking disability but then we heard her talk to her fellows in a Chinese dialect. So does that mean she can't comprehend the English language well?
She gave us the menu without saying a word and left us unattended. Then when we called her to get our order, the only words we heard from her was either a "yes" or a "can."
The Service
The food service was reasonably fast. Although we made extra effort to communicate with our server to the point that we were also doing hand gestures.
The payment of the food bill was also efficient and we didn't wait that long for everything to be settled.
The Food
I ordered a slice of the Checkers because it has a striking chocolate and vanilla appearance that weaves together a precise checkerboard in a sponge cake. Keeping the pieces together was a light whipped cream tucked between the squares. And finally outfitted with silky dark chocolate ganache.
This cake was soft, moist, and creamy with a chocolatey bitter-sweet flavor. It was delightfully delicious that it did not disappoint my sweet spot.
Priced at S$ 9.50 per slice or S$ 104 for the whole cake if one slice is not enough for you.
Checkers
The Yuzu Cheese Cake was a limited-edition cheesecake made of cream cheese infused with Yuzu, which is a type of citrus fruit, peel, and puree. Then set atop an airy vanilla sponge cake. My wife loves cheesecakes and she doesn't want to miss trying this delightful dessert.
It has that delicate hint of sourness blended with the sweetness of vanilla flavor. It was soft and enticingly light that one can easily finish it off.

For our drinks, we ordered Lady M Iced Cafe and Iced Chocolate priced at S$ 6.50 each. Both beverages were topped with whipped cream and sprinkled with cocoa powder. There was nothing special about it other than it nicely complements the cake slices we enjoyed.

Our Take
Lady M lived up to its name as we experienced delectable confections that really hit our sweet spots. The service could be improved a lot better if they hire someone who can articulate well in the English language. Or at least, have someone on duty that can help communicate with non-Chinese speaking customers.
We will definitely come back to try their famous Mille Crêpes.
Operations
They are open daily from 11:30 AM until 10:00 PM. They accept all major credit cards, NETS, and cash payments.
