Wanted to find a nice place to read and get a DECENT cup of coffee (i.e. not starbucks/PCC), so came in here as the decor was simple and inviting. The music is soft and soothing, mostly playing golden oldies or blues.The coffee is definitely worth it, and relatively cheaper than those run-of-the-mill ones from chain stores. A nice big cup of house coffee is only $20, and that can last you for a good hour or 2 (except it gets cold, of course). I ordered the set lunch too, which was duck breast w
The coffee is definitely worth it, and relatively cheaper than those run-of-the-mill ones from chain stores. A nice big cup of house coffee is only $20, and that can last you for a good hour or 2 (except it gets cold, of course). I ordered the set lunch too, which was duck breast with "kiu mak" thin noodles. Except the noodles looked smelled and tasted like instant noodles... and the soup was MSG-laden. The 3 or 4 pieces of duck breast was OK, quite peppery which is not for those who can't take it. But for $50 (coz i upgraded the coffee to a big cup) can't expect too much.
There are some magazines and newspapers, but if you're here for their mags, i suggest you bring your own reading materials, or go next door to brunch club.
The service is friendly and cheerful too.
