 Interestingly, the interior design of The Coffee Academics Singapore seems to be made up of different theme. At the far right of the cafe was a zen looking square table with tatami-like on the seats. While on its left was a corner filled with bar-like tables. Somehow, the different design components were in harmony.

 First, we went for the Academics Breakfast. Instead of bacon, ham was dished out instead. The first item that has an ingredient differ from the menu. It was pointed out by one of our diners. I am usually not meticulous with such details.

 We thought the Scrambled Eggs With Crayfish was a special dish which was unseen on another menu so far. When presented, we were surprised to see caviar.

 Academics Pancake Tower was the second dish that had look very different from the menu picture and its description. My 2 other diners were disappointed by first and this experience has made it worse. I thought it was fairly well executed, fluffy and lightly sweetened. We chose the Espresso Ice Cream which went well with the dish.

 Lastly, the cuppa. We ordered a Latte and a Cappuccino. I thought it was as good as the ones served at Hong Kong. A medium acidity, full body with hint of dark berries undertone.
The service was under par. And it was slow too. It seems like they are taking forever to get the food ready and serve. We weren’t informed of the substitute of the ingredients in the dishes and so on. In addition, my 2 dinning partners felt the pricing was a little too steep for the quality. Thought tastewise, we thought it was all right. Personally, I am more concern of the service.

 Crab and Avocado Salad ($22+)
Crab meat, sliced avocado mixed with seasonal green salad, topped with herring roe and signature TCA dressing.
The salad is nicely plated, but take care when eating the crab meat as there is small pieces of shell in the meat, which some got stuck between my teeth. I could not taste the dressing in the dish. The crab meat tastes quite fishy to me. But lucky there is buttery avocado to balance the taste.

 Okinawa ($7.50+)
one of the 3 special espresso based coffees available.
Cafe latte with Okinawa dark brown sugar.
Milky creamy drink with a hint of brown sugar at the top. It is not that exciting as expected.
Service is not bad. Prices included 10% service charge. Not crowded during weekday. Total bill was $32.45.
