Crunchy, non-greasy and not too salty. Calamari is also not overcooked. And I liked that the batter that coating the calamari tasted like KFC's crispy chicken's batter.

If you are at Novena or Raffles Place, do come by and give @professorbrawn your support. They help Autistic children by giving them jobs at the cafe and to provide an avenue to sell the merchandise designed by them, giving them a chance to earn their own keep.
😋
Do keep in mind that these Autistic children have come a long way to be able to serve you at the cafe. So do give them your love and show them your patience. Meanwhile, you will get to enjoy nice food at affordable prices and help to build a more inclusive society.

You get to enjoy discounts when you dine in and at the same time do your part in supporting the cause that Professor Brawn is championing, autism. The cafe provides an inclusive quality workforce for people of different abilities and socio-economic backgrounds. All made by scratch and in-house, the food served here is definitely worth trying, take for example for the Crunchy Calamari, priced at an affordable rate of $7.90.

Thanks to Mr Roland Tay of @professorbrawn for hosting and @Burpple for the invite.

Professor Brawn Cafe is one of the eight local social enterprises participating in #DineForGood as part of #FestivalForGood which is organised by the Singapore Centre for Social Enterprise (raiSE) to increase awareness and patronage of F&B social enterprises in Singapore. They specialise in serving classic western fare at, as I was happy to find out, really affordable prices!
Their crunchy calamari ($7.90) was one of the highlights of the dishes we tasted. At only $7.90, you get a generous portion of crisp, crunchy calamari fried to golden perfection. It's not gelat at all, although it is served with a side of salsa which provides a bit of acidity to balance things out. Super addictive, this will disappear from your table in no time!
Professor Brawn Cafe aims to provide employment opportunities to people with autism, and in doing so, has strived to create an inclusive working environment that aims to accommodate people of different abilities, ages and socio-economic backgrounds. In fact, the Professor Brawn mascot was conceptualised and designed by a child with autism, and served as the catalyst for the owner, Mr Roland Tay, to start this social enterprise. A comprehensive job assessment program has been put in place to ensure that their beneficiaries are well-equipped and comfortable in their working environment.
You can be #partofthegood by dining at participating social enterprises such as Professor Brawn Cafe! Enjoy a free ice cream with any of the mains throughout the month of August.
Many thanks to Mr Roland Tay for taking the time to host us, as well as Burpple for the invite!
Everything about this platter is just perfection. The calamari is crispy and not oily at all, and it's not drowned in batter either. The accompanying dip is filled with chunks of tomatoes and peppers, and the salad is properly dressed, not just drizzled over with some lazy balsamic vinaigrette. Ok, that's all.
