While CCSC offers a wide customisability, we chose to go with one of their classics - the Fresh Milk with Brown Sugar Bubble Tea - for our first time. The tea retained its distinct, refreshing flavour without being overpowered by the brown sugar and went nicely with the creamy fresh milk. The pearls had a great texture and stood out to us in particular. A refreshing drink under the afternoon sun for a lazy stroll along Orchard!

Lunch date at Coffee Academics today! Soft Shell Crab Salted Egg Wafu Pasta ($23) was creamy without being too heavy on the palate. The Umami Pasta ($21) was topped by generous amounts of bonito flakes but was a tad too spicy for our liking. Overall a great meal in a convenient central location, especially with Beyond’s 1-for-1 deal 👌🏼
