Heard about this place from a friend who raved about the coffee here and being a bit of a coffee lover myself, I had to check it out. Went with a group of colleagues during their lunch time and found the place to be busy with lunch time action.Finding the place wasn't as hard as it was one of the larger cafes located in the Biopolis area and I think its patrons are mostly people from around that area.We order the lunch sets available while we enjoyed the breezy alfresco seating, which we thought

We order the lunch sets available while we enjoyed the breezy alfresco seating, which we thought would be too hot in our sunny island. Our food order came and it was a LB Special burger (recommended by my friend and by some other website I think), their seafood baked rice and a chicken mayo sandwich. The portions were quite generous but my table lapped up every drop of their creamy corn soup, which apparently was home made. I loved the caramelized onions and melted cheese on my burger so no complains there.
So for the coffee, we ordered the cappuccino, latte and their Long Black coffee and being foodies, we decided to indulge in a homemade carrot cake to go with it. The coffee art in our latte and cappuccino was perfect, a rarity here in Singapore I think. The beans were roasted JUST RIGHT, so don't expect a burnt aftertaste that you sometimes get at other main stream coffee joints like Starbucks or Coffee Bean. What I REALLY loved about it was the richness of the brew, which I suspect came from their shiny machine that the word mirage on it. (I asked the owner about the machine and he said the machine is one of the best in the industry and is fast while still making sure that each brew is rich in taste and quality. If you want to get one, you can check it out at www.keesvanderwesten.com/mirage-veloce.html)
The coffee went down so well that we ordered a few more so we would have more buzz when we drag ourselves back to work. Would I come back for more coffee fixes? Definitely!
