Morning Wood at SS15

Happy Octoberfest folks.

Time flies really fast without us noticing it. I started this blog in January after reluctantly agree with friends advice but now i'm glad i did it. So here is another entry for another cafe found in the heart of the ever bustling SS15. My mom have her own favorite place for coffee. Not many cafes & baristas can meet my mom standard of coffee. One of her favorite place to have a cuppa is Morning Wood; quite a suggestive name for a cafe. In case you guys were wondering what Morning Wood means, it actually refers to men's early morning youth. Go google it. lol. Formerly known as Flat White, the former owner sold his cafe to another thus the rename & revamp took place.   

But no worries, nothing obscene about this cafe. Since SS15 are quite pack so most small cafe tend to open on the 1st floor, accommodating what usually used for office space. Hey, you gotta make do with what you have & it proved a hit. Visitors will be greeted with a fine art while ascending the stairs. 

Why a moose? i don't know.

Their staff will greet you energetically especially if you're a regular like my mom. People loves unique & good stuff. Apart from the name, the cuppa might be good judging from the number of customers cramping here. 

As for the menu, mostly are the usually cafe food like pasta, sandwiches, breakfast menu & cakes with a bit of house twist, Morning wood style. There are some names which will be familiar to those who familiar with certain kind of entertainment. But no worries again, nothing obscene here except for good food & coffee. lol

Cakes counter

We had their Ozawa (ring any bell?), Yellow, Hot chicks, Skinny Dip & Bang Cock. First up, Hot chicks. It actually chicken wings with BBQ sauce, a spicy one that is. Nothing extraordinary except for being extra crispy & spicy sauce. 

Hot chicks

My mom & sis loves their Pasta Yellow, which actually is Aglio Olio. It wasn't disappointing at all. The garlicky taste was sufficient with an extra hotness from the bird eye chili. It wasn't too oily as well. Perfect for cholesterol watchers. 

Yellow

Next, we shared their Ozawa (ok, that maybe sounded so wrong but we did share it). It was actually an eggs benedict with smoked salmon (i wonder why salmon always connected to Japs, not the vikings). It was nice but quite ordinary. Hollaindaise sauce was mild with nicely smoked salmon. Plenty of greens on this one. 

Ozawa

I personally loves their Skinny Dip (again, suggestive name). A modern baked eggs with slices of sausages in tomato stew served with slices of toasted bread. The stew was really nice. Sweet & sour with egg yolk still runny to make the stew more thick if you like it thick. Toasted bread was soft & a bit of crunchy. 

Skinny Dip

Finally, the dish of the day, Bang Cock. The name sounded like Bangkok why is a nice fit given that the dish have some thai essence to it. Pasta cooked with milky thai spices & lemongrass with bird eye chili then served with skewered chicken consists of chicken, pineapple & capsicum. The flavors combined well with taste almost similar to thai curry. To enhance the dish, try eating it with pineapple. The pasta covered sufficiently with the sauce. 

Bang Cock

Certainly, mom knows best when it comes to food. As usual, parking will be a hassle to find since this cafe is just opposite Asia Cafe so good luck in finding the nearest one. Kitchen close at 930pm. Coffee & cakes served till onwards.
