Random dinner date with a newly found café-mate at a newly opened café located at my second favorite café-hopping area..
SOFT SHELL CRAB BURGER: 1 whole soft shell crab topped with mango and pomegranate salsa, sandwiched between 2 butter brioche bun; bun is slightly crispy outside, soft and fluffy inside; soft shell crab is well cooked; pomegranate & mango salsa is a plus point in the dish; refreshing taste among fried items; curly fries is well cooked and not oily..
MUSSELS WITH COCONUT LEMONGRASS & ALE: Mussels cooked in a Thai-style broth; the broth is surprisingly flavorful with a tinge of sweetness from the mussels; sourdough is crispy outside and soft inside; best to dip in the broth..
MUSHROOM MEDLEY: Cream sauce pasta with mushrooms, onions and topped with parmesan cheese; creamy but not overwhelming; worth to try though..
MIXED BERRIES COMPOTE WAFFLES: Cannot end my café meal without some sweet stuff; waffles is crispy outside but a little too moist inside; topped with vanilla ice cream and various berries; ice cream itself is not too sweet; overall dish is quite sweet as there's sugar, syrup and berries; berries a little sour (I like cos I'm a sour lover); quite a appetizing dish though; good for sharing..
Overall a satisfying meal at a cosy café; portion a little small for all main courses; quality > quantity meal; good place for chilling; service is good; no service charge..

My favourite dish here! The broth had a soft tinge of tomyum to it which went really well with the sourdough bread. I could have finished the entire dish myself! 😅
