The Coffee Showcase

Have been meaning to eat here since i read reviews abt it but actually wanted to fo Astons Specialities yesterday..Got off the bus a bit too earli and chanced upon Coffee Showcase. Decided to eat here after noticing the long long line at Astons.

Food Ordered Crispy Chicken skin - $2.50 Calamari - $4.50 Grilled Dory with butter cream sauce - $7.00 Sirlion Steak - $8.00(i tink)

We added 3.50 to both the mains to make it a set meal comes with

carrot soup hazelnut crunch cake tiramisu drinks

the layout is simple..arnd 5 tables for 4 all in a row...one side is cushion booth seats n the other cute retro chairs.

very simple and nice..on the opposite, the section with the cutleries(wic came very cutely, the dessert fork, spoon, soup spoon, fork and knife all wrapped in a serviette), a movenpick ice cream freezer, the main counter)..service was quick and the staff were friendly.

i hate hate hate carrot..but the soup was actualli not bad..came in a super cute bowl..gave it to my bf..so poor thing had to eat 1 and 3/4 bowls of soup..

i liked the calamari..crispy and easily bitten into tho i still think absolute haven's one is tops. bf says its better than fish n co.

he didnt like the chicken skin.. but to me chicken skin fried sprinkled with chilli powder = yummy..im an unhealthy eater i know..

my fish was nice..can actually taste the fish..n no fishy smell that makes me wanna phuke..liked the butter cream sauce and they were generous with the wedges..wic i loved too..all were crispy on the outside..juz how i like it..

bf liked his steak..i liked it too..easy to chew and didnt taste too overwhelming.

lastly our desserts..ithe hazlenut crunch cake rocks...they were nicely presented..my cake had what looked like waffle bits on top of it..and i loved how it wasnt too mousseey or too cakey..perfect balance..reminds me of rocher actualli..bfs tiramisu was alryt too..

got another chicken skin to to and another cake too..and altho i made my order after 9(no more food orders were supposed to be taken after 9 as stated on the menu) our server actualli managed to get the order in..

i think i shall definitely come here more often..good food..not noisy..good service..and the stuff are really reasonably priced.
