Coffee

Newly launched, this was on the house. I like this better than Matchaya's which is too thick and creamy.

I seriously.. Don't get the hype. Sure, the coffee definitely strong and rich, but i also couldn't ignore how SWEET and syrupy it tasted.. Crowd-pleaser on hot days maybe?

Recently opened joint that's well-hidden in the industrial zone of kaki bukit, having moved here from depot rd.

Venturing into the midwest of Singapore and i've heard loads about this particular joint. Food aside, this was the perfect spot to unwind with a book - surrounded by glass-and-steel high rises, the comfortable buzz of office workers (as opposed to the jarring noise of the CBD). The coffee here is robust and rich, with a pleasant bitterness. Too bad you're so far away.

Why? Why does it have to be agave nectar when the coarse black pepper overpowers the taste of anything else? Cos it's vegan/low GI? But this café isn't exactly marketed as health conscious and high fructose anyway! Is coffee made better by the addition of spice? No! It's large, unpleasant flakes that choke more than leave a palatable burn. But i hold myself fully responsible for making hippie coffee choices 😑

Milk is steamed with a shot of coconut oil.. And i have to say this is one of the best versions i've had. The scent of coconut really lifts every sip, and despite the slightly greasier film on the lips and palette, i really enjoy the smoothness and richness.
