Platform 1094 – One and Only Harry Potter Theme Cafe in Singapore

It has been 5 years since the final Harry Potter movie has been aired in the cinemas and I am still suffering from what I call the “Harry Potter Syndrome”. I still flip through the books when the mood strikes me, rereading the most delicious bits. 
When I learned that a Harry Potter theme cafe has opened in Singapore, I knew I had to come and take a look, so here I am.

The interior is decorated with wood-panelled walls, ceiling candelabra, wooden tables and chairs adorned with deer designs. The decorations are a little sparse, but this is a relatively new restaurant so I am hoping that more can be done to the interior to give the place a more Hogwarts feel.

The whole set-up of the drink is done before my eyes, where a spoonful of torched Bacardi is lowered into a cup filled with Blue Curaçao liquor and lime juice. “Flames” erupt when the cinnamon powder is sprinkled on the drink. Let the cup cool down for a good 10-15 minutes before you take a sip with a straw. Theatrical effects aside, it is a pleasant alcoholic drink where the lime juice gives a little sourness and Blue Curaçao gives a hint of bitterness.

Carrot & Beetroot Soup is served in a small black cauldron-shaped bowl accompanied by a piece of homemade bread and a small plate of sour cream. Beetroot and carrots give the soup its colour while red wine vinegar, cashew nuts and assorted vegetables make this soup not only Instagram-worthy but healthy to boot too.

The classic aglio olio is infused with a local twist in Crab Meat Aglio Olio. Spaghetti is cooked in buerne monte sauce that gives the dish a touch of creaminess, served with spicy crab meat and flying fish roe wrapped in smoked salmon.
