Rise & Grind Coffee Co. : A Cosy Coffee Hangout

This cafe is located right before the entrance of Beauty World Plaza, it has been around since April 2015. 

The service was impressively attentive from the moment when i entered. I went straight to the counter as i took notice of that sign that said, 'Pay and Order Here'. I was quickly approached by a service staff, she suggested that i take a seat first and she will bring the menu to me. I decided to try their newest creation, Pulled Pork Benedict ($15). I went to the counter to place my order as i could not find their other options of coffee on the menu, it took me quite a while to decide. The counter staff noticed it and he asked, 'Looking for the coffee? Latte, Cappuccino?' I went with Cappuccino.



The Cappuccino came first, it was rather rich and smooth and i enjoyed it.



Their Pulled Pork Benedict is quite a surprise. it comprises of slow-cooked then shredded pork shoulder with 2 perfectly poached eggs, served on sourdough toast then garnished with apple cider hollandaise. 





Their Tom Yum Seafood ($17) and Burger The Gold Standard ($18) are also worth a try. Their dishes are nicely executed and also reasonably priced.
