The cafe scene is always at its Equilibrium, with an opening of one, bound to come with a closure of another. Kara Cafe & Dessert Bar is next to the now dysfunction cafe, The Missing Pan.
Kara Cafe & Dessert Bar is by Sogurt. Formerly, it was a pure Froyo Cafe. After rebranding, the sought-after Sogurt Froyo is still on the menu, with food incorporated in the menu too.
Yet another design of tropical forest. The last was the Loloku Poke Bar. As you enter, you find a wall paper art-piece designed by local artist Mark Wee. The interior feel warm and welcoming.
On Kara Cafe & Dessert Bar menu, they feature toasts, rice bowl, some snack and a handful of desserts.
Classic Grilled Cheese ($10.50) has an unusual item on the sandwich, sweetish pickle. I find it weird on my first bite. Then I try removing it and have the sandwich purely with cheese; the cheese was pungent. Hence adding pickle make lots of sense, lightening the feel. May it is better idea to leave the pickle by the side for diners to add according to their preference.
Apple & Coconut Crumble ($12) was cloying sweet. The crumble masked the apple fragrance completely, leaving only the crunch to the dish. The froyo was a great add to the dessert as it added a refreshing dimension to the dish. Perhaps, reducing the amount of crumble and increase the froyo will be ideal.
Coffee at Kara Cafe & Dessert Bar use the Throwback beans from Papa Palheta. Therefore expect the Cappuccino ($5.50) with a full body and low acidity filled with Dark Chocolate and rich Hazelnut tone.
For non-caffeine drink, a good choice is the Roselle Iced Tea ($5). Technically, it isn’t a tea but a brewed fruit drink. A lightly candied drink with a fruity hint. With Nata de Coco added to provide some chewy texture.
NAHMJ Verdict
Kara Cafe & Dessert Bar has quite some filling delish comfort food and coupled with dessert is certainly a perfect place for brunch.
