A pop-up book cafe featuring titles and readings by female authors, a dessert bar serving up cocktails and elegantly fashioned sweets, and a supper club – all in one!
At Sweet Somethings, you can witness the genius of Ukrainian pastry chef Dinara Kasko whose creations look absolutely too good to be eaten. She is a pioneering pastry chef using food as a platform for peace, and namechecked on the 50 Next List of game-changers who are shaping the future face of gastronomy.
Part artist, part chef, she is famous for her silicone moulds in the shapes of spheres, triangles, bananas, cherries, and hearts. With her 700k over Instagram followers and a huge network across social media channels, Dinara has influenced a young generation of bakers, from professional chefs inspired by her methods – some of which have been used by our very own Chef Janice Wong – to novice cooks who use her 3D silicone moulds at home.
You can also pop over at the nearby book corner which features a special selection of books about food, music, lifestyle pursuits and topical issues about women curated by Chio Books.
