Group Therapy Coffee needs no introduction now; it’s been a while since it had settled in the quaint neighbourhood of Duxton Road. Well known to be a place for brunch, it is a popular spot with much teenagers and young adults alike whom are all into the hype of brunch food and great coffee alike. The entrance is easy to miss if you are not looking hard for the cafe; from the ground level there is a signboard stating some items sold, and another signage that hangs on the wall saying “Group Therap
Poached Eggs is a common brunch item, and the ones here are served on top of a thick toast with smoked salmon and topped of with Hollandaise Sauce. The eggs were brilliantly poached with the egg yolk being runny yet having the egg white solidified and tasted extremely fresh and slightly more refined in taste as compared to your regular egg yolks outside. The salmon complimented the toast well by adding this smoky flavour to the dish, which made the the eggs and the toast so savoury. The Hollandaise sauce gave the dish a real tasty finishing; unlike the Hollandaise sauce in the Poached Salmon from IKEA which had a sweet flavour to it, this Hollandaise sauce was more saltier in comparison than being sweet. Nonetheless though it was a real savoury brunch item to have, and it was something that I truly enjoyed.
The Caramel Granny Smith Apple Pie was a cold item, a break from those that are usually served warm. While caramel often gives a strong and intense sweetness to anything that it is applied on, the caramel here was a somewhat light flavour that gave a bit more flavour to the caramalised apples. The crust held the pie pretty firmly, which was something I personally liked. The Granny Smith Apple chunks were huge, flavourful and juicy. I particularly liked the granola nuts sprinkled on the top of the pie; it gave the pie some flavour that was unlike the usual crumbs with a fruity (and healthy) taste.
It’s been quite a while since I last ordered an Affogato anywhere, so I went straight into the Affogato. While the combination of both was quite balanced, the Espresso here is pretty much bitter and did not carry much body in it.For more photos and the full review, please visit: http://jiaksimipng.wordpress.com/2013/07/18/group-therapy-coffee-duxton-road/
