WORD Cafe
This café offers more than what you are looking for. Carnivores will love the Cow-ch Potato, a nicely seared striploin cut Angus beef steak with caramelised onions and garlic butter on a bed of potato puree. Their Cut The Crab appetizer is a hot favourite amongst patrons; breaded crab meat cakes stuffed with gooey mozzarella cheese.

If you’re more of a fish person, the Salmon Khan is a must try. And if you are little experimental with your drinks, you will love the drink in a light bulb. The original sin at WORD Café is their star dessert, The Original Sin, an apple crumble made in an apple.
