Went for a quick lunch at this cafe branch in CWB. It’s conveniently located in Lee Garden Two. I was seated in one of the smaller tables facing the food/drinks counter. The tables were placed rather close to one another in a row. Unfortunately, neither the chair nor the seat leaning against the wall were particularly comfortable . I ordered a 4 sides Autumn/Winter Brunch Board under the Menu priced at $158+ 10% service charge. The selections were: Sourdough bread, Mushroom & Quinoa Salad, Pan F
I was seated in one of the smaller tables facing the food/drinks counter. The tables were placed rather close to one another in a row. Unfortunately, neither the chair nor the seat leaning against the wall were particularly comfortable .
I ordered a 4 sides Autumn/Winter Brunch Board under the Menu priced at $158+ 10% service charge. The selections were: Sourdough bread, Mushroom & Quinoa Salad, Pan Fried Chicken Thigh w/ Satay Sauce, Sous Vide Char Siu, Cherry Tomato & Mozzarella Cheese w/ Umeshu Sauce.
When my brunch board arrived, one could see my choices were presented in little bowls and
small Japanese look-alike round dishes. Oddly enough, I was only given knife and fork to consume my meal😂😬! The char siu and the chicken were in larger pieces and it was not possible to shuffle them in the mouth without cutting them in smaller pieces! I had to tilt the knife and fork somehow to cut the meat within the small confine of the bowl and round dish which was hard to do! The small bowl kind of wobbled whilst I was doing the cutting 😒 as it was not meant for the purpose. Trying hard to do so discreetly without spillage. The person who designed this brunch board obviously did not take into consideration how one would enjoy the food! Great idea but failed on execution…….
The slowed cooked char siu was flavourful but was not as tender was one would have hoped. In comparison, the chicken meat was much juicier but the satay sauce lacked flavour and punch. The other salad dishes were okay. The sourdough bread looked as though it had been seared and was chewy.
Finally, I ordered what I come for - a cappuccino ($45 plus 10% service charge).
When it arrived, there was consolation. On first sip, the nuttiness and chocolatey crema coated my mouth then rounded up by the full bodied milky foam and milk. This choco blend coffee was delicious and well balanced! An exceptional good cup of coffee. I would definitely come back again for their coffee but as for food, I am not so sure.
