TTDI's new Sense Cafe beckons with the fragrance of fresh coffee, the warm touch of open sandwiches, the comforting taste of flavourful pasta, the soothing sight of the morning sun streaming through the trees by the window, and the cheerful voices of the people behind the brew bar.
Founded by four friends embarking on their own cafe for the first time, Sense is a lovely neighbourhood space. Check out the painting that the team created together themselves, titled Flow.
Straining their own ricotta and baking their own butter cakes, Sense’s show-runners serve honest fare, from seeded sourdough slices layered with sauteed mushrooms, whipped ricotta, kale and cherry tomatoes to linguine tossed with kimchi and kyuri in gochujang, rounded out with beef bacon, black sesame seeds, yellow onions and Parmesan cheese. Beat the Monday blues with the blueberry butter cake.
Snatch a seat by the peperomia or a table by the pothos and sip on smooth filters (the Ecuador La Papaya conveys potential notes of peach and persimmon) and coolers like the Apple-Cha (with hojicha) and Greenmanthus (with cucumber and osmanthus).
