Broun Cafe is located along North Canal Road, which is walking distance from NE5 Clark Quay Station. The cafe can be easily spotted from its brown and white signage from afar. However, when I reached the cafe at nearly 12.30 noon, I was told by the waiter that they were only serving main dishes excluding wraps and stews. Yes, I was pretty disappointed as my friend recommended the wraps to me. So, my friend and I were only left with four choices of main dishes to choose from.The ambience of Broun

The ambience of Broun Cafe is good, and indeed it gives a homely feeling as mentioned in its tag line 'Wholesome. Healthy. Homely'. The interior looks really simple with a live band corner.
For me, I ordered the 'Herb Grilled Chicken' ($12) which is grilled chicken served with rosemary and their Broun sauce. Pretty satisfied with my main dish, especially the mashed potato and the leafy vegetables tastes good with the sweet sauce all over it. The grilled chicken is smooth and tender, I would recommend this dish to any chicken lovers!
My friend ordered the 'Pan-seared Dory' ($12) which is crispy dory fish with garlic seasoning. The dory fish is indeed crispy on the outside and tastes just nice on the inside. It does go well with the mashed potato as well as the sweet sauce from the leafy vegetables.
As we ordered the set meals which comes with a choice of iced lemon tea or canned drink as well as the dessert of the day. Hence, our dessert was the 'Broun-ie with Ice-cream'. The brownie was quite good, moist and warm enough to savour together with the scoop of vanilla ice-cream.Overall, it was an enjoyable first visit to Broun Cafe. A good place to catch up with friends, maybe because it was rather quiet on weekdays afternoons. I would definitely come back to try the other main dishes, with the company of live band music!
