Cups N Canvas with E-main
Posted on Monday, June 30, 2014
Gosh these photos are super old but I finally found time to put them up! Spent some quality talking time with my almost-neighbour E-main at Cups N Canvas in another one of our cafe hunts. The concept of the cafe sounded pretty cool - drinking coffee while painting, but we decided to skip the painting portion and focus on the food, which most people there did as well.
The main reason we wanted to come was because of the Sweet Potato Latte ($4.80), which is the pretty purple coffee you see above, but sadly it's prettier than it looks. Personally i found the sweet potato taste too strong and heavy, and E-main didn't finish it, so I would say give it a miss! Not to mention, breakfast was seriously lacking. Sure it looks delicious in photos, but the scrambled eggs were sadly dry, the sauteed mushrooms were under-seasoned and the bread was cold. Eee. Not cheap either - i had the Breakfast Delight with the smoked salmon ($18.90) and E-main had the Breakfast Canvas with the bratwurst ($17.90). Side note, I can't look at the word bratwurst and pronounce it any other way than the Germans do hehe.
The only saving grace of the meal was the Earl Grey Cheesecake ($7.00). To die for! The earl grey flavour was definitely strong enough to enhance the whole cheesecake. Would actually consider coming back for just this despite the less than average food and overpriced. It was that good.
So yep. All in all, food was disappointing but company definitely was not :) I'm trying my hardest to learn from role models like my friends. E-main for one always tries to see the best in people, and I don't know why that's not something I do naturally, but I feel that a lot of times we are conditioned to feel the way we feel are because of the people we grew up with. So it's a great thing to surround myself with positive friends such as E-main to slowly begin the process of (hopefully) becoming a better person ♥

you indeed, aren't a nice person. I remembered back in SMU Bondue camp, I was a fellow facilitator. And I would never forget how rude you were when talking to me. Passing on instructions can always be done in a courteous and graceful manner, instead of shouting and being rude. You ought to check your mannerism. It's a bad reflection of yourself. Although it happened like a few years back, but people's perception of you can be fixed in just 1 occasion. Hope you can reflect upon yourself.
@Anonymous Hi, I acknowledge that I can be a very snappy under stressful circumstances but I am aware of it and work hard to change every day, after we are only human! For yourself i guess it's always better to look at a person as a whole and not just judge them on one instance, it will probably make you happier than holding grudges against people :)
Also I think i know who you are because i remember shouting at only one person at camp, but don't worry, I won't come back and flame you.
Unfortunately, with your snappy attitude, I believe you have unknowingly shouted at many people w/o yourself knowing. Btw, thanks for your advice, but I don't need yours with regards to judging people. I don't bear any grudges against you, why would I? I am a happy person, what makes you think I am not? :)
@Anonymous Haha because you're still stalking the blog of someone you hate for a small incident that happened years ago, and you have to comment on it anonymously because you don't have the guts to tell people that you have issues with them to their face.
How about you think what you want of me and I can think what I think of you (because i know who you are), and we'll leave it at that? :)
