yes, books clubs are very common amongst the Anglo/American communities in Europe, the idea was exported from America and England. The book clubs that I am part of are made up of mostly American ladies.

It would be a great initiative to start one in Singapore. I bet they do exist, perhaps amongst the Ang Moh expatriates… lol!!!!

Have fun starting your own Sparklette book club!

lol your last sentence totally conjured up an image of Harry Potter and Hedwig! (Yeah, yeah, I know he’s not a pigeon. I just want him as a pet!)

I love your idea on knitting clubs and book clubs holding discussions here. It’s a conducive environment for such informal activities, and certainly fitting too. We don’t have enough book clubs in Singapore do we? Are they common in Europe?

-knitting clubs could meet there to discuss the next pattern

-Book clubs could have their monthly meets there…. authors, books, titles could all be discussed over cups of coffee and cake.

-The VW club meeting there is such a novel idea….how cute!

Can’t wait to see this hole for myself….perhaps I could send my homing pigeon there ahead of me. :)

Thanks for the hot tip Ave.

P.S. I’m from the Singapore VW Beetle group. After this review, the group leader Sunny says that he wanna hold coffee sessions for the group at The Pigeonhole. Don’t be too shocked if you see a convoy of bugs lining up outside your café! :)

If you send us an e-mail or SMS or tweet 2 days in advance, that will certainly guarantee you some pudding!

We get our pudding from an independent supplier (a chef friend who’s now running his own business), which explains why he can only make them in limited quantity and why they tend to run out quite quickly :)

Hi Ave,

It was nice seeing you yesterday. A friend just told me about your awesome chocolate bread and butter pudding. He says it sells out instantly and that people actually SMS or tweet ahead to reserve an order! Is that true? Any tips on how and what time of the day we can “secure” it?

Thanks so much for the review. Hope you enjoyed yourself :) See you again soon!
