100% Honest Review: Is Mr. Bucket Chocolaterie Singapore’s Most Unique Date Spot?

ABBEY: Watching Charlie and the Chocolate Factory at Sands Theatre left me with one irresistible craving: chocolate. So naturally, our next stop was Mr. Bucket Chocolaterie at Dempsey Road. After all, the name “Mr. Bucket” instantly brings Charlie Bucket to mind. Who knows? Maybe this is the real chocolate factory after Charlie eventually took over from Willy Wonka.


To make the experience even sweeter, we booked the Chocolate Tour and Tasting, which costs SGD 20 per person. It was a fun and informative journey into the world of artisan chocolate, from learning about cacao to tasting some of their signature creations.


One thing that made me especially proud was discovering that Mr. Bucket partners with cocoa farmers from the Philippines. Seeing Philippine-grown cacao featured in premium handcrafted chocolates made the visit even more meaningful.


Of course, I couldn’t take my eyes off their beautiful display of colourful chocolate bon bons. Each piece looked like a tiny work of art, and every bite delivered a silky-smooth texture with rich, well-balanced flavours. You can immediately tell that these chocolates are made with exceptional quality and craftsmanship.


What surprised me the most, however, were their uniquely Singaporean flavour combinations. The Prawn Stick Keropok and Vegan Bakkwa & Cashew milk chocolates sounded unusual at first, and I honestly wasn’t sure what to expect. But after the first bite, everything clicked. The savoury notes complemented the sweetness perfectly, making the chocolate flavours even more pronounced. It was an unexpected pairing that worked incredibly well.


We enjoyed them so much that we bought extra packs to bring home for our family in the Philippines. They made for unique souvenirs and a delicious way to share our Singapore experience.


If you’re searching for one of the best chocolate experiences in Singapore, be sure to add Mr. Bucket Chocolaterie to your itinerary. Whether you’re a serious chocolate lover, looking for a unique date idea, or simply curious about bean-to-bar chocolate, this hidden gem at Dempsey Road is well worth a visit. You might even feel like you’ve stepped into your very own chocolate factory.

100% Honest Review: Is Mr. Bucket Chocolaterie Singapore’s Most Unique Date Spot?



WILL:  If you are running out of fun couple activities in Singapore, we might have found your next weekend spot! When we usually visit chocolate factories or museums around the world, we expect to be surrounded by groups of energetic kids. Surprisingly, during our visit to Mr. Bucket Chocolaterie, we were scheduled alongside another couple. Instant date-night vibes! Yay!


If you are planning to add this to your Singapore itinerary, here is everything you need to know before booking your ticket.


So, what actually happens during the experience? If you are expecting a full Willy Wonka tour inside an active chocolate factory... nah-ah-ah! The closest you will get to the production line is standing behind the counter to peak into the kitchen through a glass panel.

The historical presentation relies heavily on a visual folder showing the origin of cacao and how it transforms into the artisanal chocolate sold in their stores. While the presentation format itself is a bit simple, our guide was super enthusiastic and brought the storytelling to life with great energy!

From a tasting perspective? They are amazingly generous! In fact, we ate so much delicious chocolate that we definitely felt like we got our full money’s worth against the tour fee. Haha!


Overall, if you want a relaxed, sweet, and slightly different afternoon activity with your partner, this is a fun spot to check out. It is cozy, full of treats, and gives you a fresh story to share.

🇨🇭Läderach, Lindt or Cailler? Which is the Best Chocolate Museum in Switzerland?

ABBEY: I am a BIG fan of chocolate. And there’s no way we’ll be missing the chocolate factories when we go to Switzerland. Upon landing in Zurich, we dropped our luggages at the hotel and off we go to our first order of “business”: go to House of Läderach at Bilten. The train staff even told us that it’s far and we should go to Lindt instead. Little did he know that we will go there as well. House of Läderach is not that much crowdy and we liked it. We explore the museum how the chocolate was made. We had a sensory experience where we got a chance to taste their chocolate while watching a video that explains how to spot fresh chocolates. Upon seeing their molds, process, and their story we were led to four fountains. Yes, they are all chocolate; milk, dark, white, and blonde. We also experienced to be a chocolatier even for a while. I made my own bar with pistachios and pine nuts and completed it with a ribbon. And while in queue at the cashier we were given samples of liqueur chocola...

Duo Deluxe Golden Village - Paya Lebar Laser-projected Movie Hall

ABBEY: Golden Village Paya Lebar boasts its laser projection system and its spacious twin leather seats. So we went ahead and watch Justice League on a weekend.  Only the food and drinks bought in the cinema will be allowed.  I thought the seats are able to recline but its not. The space between the other twins are not that apart. I can still feel the feet or maybe the knee of the person behind me.  When it comes to the projection I don’t find any difference with other cinema. Maybe I’m not just keen into that technology. Duo Deluxe Golden Village - SEAT  Duo Deluxe Golden Village - TICKET PRICE Duo Deluxe Golden Village -  WILL:  We are not that bored to the old seat or lazy boys kind of cinemas, we just want to explore new things to serve our readers.

Shaw Theatres premiere Review: Is This Premium Cinema Worth It?

ABBEY:  Recently, we finally got to experience the newly renovated Shaw Theatres Lido along Orchard Road just in time for The Devil Wears Prada 2 hitting the silver screen. From the moment we stepped in, it was clear that Shaw has elevated the cinema experience into something far more premium and comfortable for moviegoers in Singapore. One of the first things you will notice is the impressive selection of food and beverage options available. Guests are spoiled for choice with concepts like Centro, Espresso and Matcha Bar , and even a Cocktail Bar, making it feel more like an upscale lounge than a traditional cinema. If you are planning a date night or weekend movie experience, the value is surprisingly decent too. A SGD90 package already includes a pair of Lido Premiere tickets along with two SGD15 F&B credits. The service also stood out during our visit. An usher personally welcomed us and guided us to our leather recliner seats while explaining how the in-seat servi...
