You should think about my shock once I chanced upon a brand new espresso home opened simply by the nook of Buona Vista— Brash Boys Coffee. Buona Vista has been a hub to find many espresso chains like Starbucks and Costa Coffee, so an natural neighbourhood cafe brewing within the space requires lots of guts.
With many cafes on the rise, it looks like friendships bonded over espresso have brewed into enterprise companions. Two pals have created the most recent child on the block, fashioning a comfy house that formally opened its doorways on 11 Nov 2022. It is situated particularly at Biomedical Grove, which sits on the quieter facet of the busy Buona Vista.
Only coated by glass doorways, the cafe follows an open counter idea, and greets you with a comforting odor of espresso beans and pleasant baristas. The cafe has a easy, minimalistic theme with a number of tables lining the edges of the entire house. Its calming inside makes an ideal setting for brief conversations with pals or an area to atone for some work when you catch your subsequent appointment.
The espresso store serves up the standard espresso orders, from Mocha (S$5.50), Flat White (S$5) and Espresso (S$4). They cost a further S$0.50 in your drinks to be iced, and S$0.80 for oat milk. Their espresso mix is a 2-beans mix between 50% Guatemala and 50% Columbia.
Their espresso beans are specifically sourced from Tiong Hoe, one of many respected pioneers in Singapore’s espresso trade. So you’re ensured to get a great cup of espresso dosage right here.
Should you’re feeling slightly extra bougie, be at liberty to check out their signature drinks: the Brash Black (S$5.90) and Brash White (S$6.90), each containing chilly brew focus ice cubes.
Apart from customary espresso choices, they’ve introduced in handmade baked items by Puff and Peaks Bakery, a neighbourhood bakery. Cafe staples embody Lemon glazed pistachio tea desserts (S$5.80), Pecan Chip Cookies (S$4) and Dark Chocolate Babka rolls (S$4.20).
I all the time get peckish each time I order a beverage and their entire pastry menu is unquestionably making me excited. Note that their bakes are available rotation so not all of them could be supplied on the identical time! Surprise your self every time you come all the way down to see what’s on show.
Collaborations between neighbourhood bakeries, espresso retailers, on-line shops have created this supportive setting of #SupportLocal. Entrepreneurs who’ve began their very own companies have been proactive in making this motion work.
With the addition of Brash Boys Coffee, I suppose it means there’ll be one other place to take pleasure in one other cup of espresso!
