You can almost hear a sea-breeze at this cozy cafe and restaurant. The charming nautical-themed decor and handsome wooden touches throw you straight into a seafaring fantasy right in the middle of King Albert Park. It’s the perfect mid-shopping getaway for those tired feet and hunger pangs: expect comforting nosh and hearty cafe grub, alongside an invigorating cup of strong coffee. Except this isn’t your usual cafe fare. There’s a healthy amount of kitchen wizardry at work here. Think of hefty appetizers like their signature Treasures in a Bun, a pillowy steamed bun stuffed with slow-braised pork belly done up with caramelized ginger chili sauce and crunchy fried shallots. This is matched with fiery Thai-influenced salads like the Pomelo Pick Me Up, a salad of tender poached prawns tossed in a zingy sweet chili lime dressing, dressed with peanuts, and scattered with tart pomelo gems for a true party in the mouth.

Mains here go straight to comfort food territory with numbers like the Lobster Submarine, a buttery roll filled with poached lobster that’s dressed with lemony mayo, crunchy tobiko, and crunchy vegetables. For something even heftier, and more indulgent, get the Foie Gras Wagyu Burger, which hits all the luxury eating sweet spots: meltingly fatty foie gras crowns a juicy Wagyu patty that’s sandwiched between fluffy brioche buns and held together by a lovely onion marmalade and mushrooms. If there’s room for dessert, the Chocolate Cherry Dome, a beautiful confection of chocolate, berries compote, strawberries, and meringue, will seal the deal on your visit. Pop by for their High Tea too for tiers of similarly elegant desserts and a quiet afternoon in one of the city’s most charming neighbourhoods. (Oct 2017)
