Dome Cafe - Singapore Art Museum


The Coffee Concierge was passing by the Singapore Art Museum the other day and decided to drop into the Dome there. That's always been one of the coffee concierge's favourite cafes in Singapore because of its location in the grounds of the old Saint Joseph's Institution, now the Singapore Art Museum. It has that old colonial feeling about it still and Dome has done a decent job of using the space it has on the ground floor with both al fresco areas as well as an indoor area. The only thing is that if you eat inside, your clothes will end up smelling a little like you've been in a hawker's centre after leaving.

Despite the pleasant ambience, the expresso ordered was not great nor was the brownie. The expresso was mainly sour at first sip. It became a little less sour and more pleasantly bitter at second sip and some swirling. On the whole it did not have a particularly strong flavour or aroma and had a minimal aftertaste. The service was polite and prompt. The brownie tasted like it had been made from instant mix bought from the supermarket.

Price: S$ can't quite remember but should be in the S$4 region
Flavour: 1.5 beans
