On weekdays, my idea of luxury is to be able to sneak out in the middle of a busy day to have some "me time", to catch up on reading, to recharge, or simply to wind down over a nice cup of coffee.Armed with a good Kindle and an empty stomach, I checked out this 18 Grams On Kwong Wah Street, thinking that I wouldn't be too disappointed.

Armed with a good Kindle and an empty stomach, I checked out this 18 Grams On Kwong Wah Street, thinking that I wouldn't be too disappointed. As expected, the cappuccino was sweet and (mildly) bitter, flavourful on the nose and on the tongue, with a good substantial layer of milk foam on top.
The real star of the visit however was the smashed avocado sandwich. Ok, I love avocado and poached egg, so any dish with these two items is bound to please me, but this offering was above and beyond the call of duty: the obligatory side salad was fresh and nicely dressed, the hollandaise sauce was eggy and delicious, and I love the dried fruits that topped the sandwich. The one criticism I have is that the avocado could have been fresher as it wasn't as green as it should be. Nonetheless, it was a tasty and satisfying dish.
With physical and mental hunger satiated, I could move on.
Other Info. :
18 Grams serves good food and good coffee, what they don't serve is good music. Management, please put more thought into the music selection.
