It is always nice to visit new cafes in Singapore, especially at odd timings! We were looking for a place for early dinner along Thomson and chanced upon this new cafe, Cafe Etc.!

I was a bit apprehensive at first because the whole place was empty while the popular cafes like Habitat Coffee and Old School Delights along the same stretch were full house. But I am glad we went in because I quite like quiet and empty spaces!



If you like to listen to cars zooming past and human chatter along the roads, you can opt for alfresco dining.





Berries Smoothie

Being a berries lover, this drink didn't really work for me because the taste of berries wasn't strong enough. But it wasn't too sweet either. I wonder if they used syrup or real fruits for this beverage. Syrup would have been much sweeter but real fruits would have been sourish. Puzzling...



Eggs Benedict

This no-frills eggs benny was surprisingly good. The English muffins were warm and soft, with slices of smoked salmon and avocado underneath the slightly overcooked poached eggs.



Fish and chips

There are usually 2 kinds of fish and chips around, those with the battered skin (like Ebi Tempura) and those with battered-smooth skin. I like the latter and this is exactly what is it. The fish itself was smooth and tasted yummy without being too greasy. Fries was normal but they sprinkled some spice powder on it which made it a tad too salty.



Chicken Wings

For $5.80, you get 4 pieces of chicken wings or drumlets which are on the smaller scale. I say they are deep-fried just nicely but the only impression I have was the powdered sprinkled that made it too salty. They should really go easy on the powder.



There are some hits and misses with this cafe. Just order the right stuff and you can have a decent meal here. I like the quiet ambience when you have the whole cafe to yourself :)
