We decided to go along the Hong Kong theme today (since we just went Mak’s Noodle and Honolulu Cafe), and landed at The Coffee Academïcs.
Launched in 2012, TCA has 5 outlets in HK and this new huge space in Singapore was only launched this year. They are very serious about coffee and the Singapore flagship store has been designed with various coffee preparation stations like a Roasting Bar, a Brew Bar and a Cupping Bar and they organizes coffee classes too.
- Citrus Espressoda ($8++): This is a time-limited concoction of double shot of TCA House Blend espresso bolstered with fresh orange slices and fizzy tonic water. A very refreshing drink!
- Ginger Peach Green Tea ($10++ per pot): Pretty cup, fragrant smell, lovely smooth taste. What else can you ask for in a cup of tea? A truly awesome sensory experience 🙂
We would love to come back and try the other stuff on the menu!

After
We were here for a late lunch, and the queue at Honolulu Cafe was too long. So, we headed to the empty Mak’s Noodles instead.
It was time for drinks
It was a super late brunch (actually, almost lunch time), and this new place Steam Box caught our eye as something that looked rather healthy! They had just opened on 3 May 2016, and apparently dinner reservations were already fully booked.
New kid on the block near the area and we were quite lucky to get seats immediately on a Friday night!
We were running out of ideas on a nice Sunday afternoon. So we decided to head north this time, and found ourselves queuing at Senjyu 千寿 because it looks new. 😛
We popped over next door to Gemmills for some drinks after
Hubby enjoyed his Flat White ($4), which was strong and acidic.
