If you are a sucker for a sophisticated shack ambiance, head to Cafe by the beach NOW!!
Went there the other evening right after work with a page-turning chick lit that i was reading then thinking i could do what i always imagined doing by myself i.e. BOOK+beach shack+ mocktails.
So my hopes of getting a chance to read there were shattered since i reached just after sunset.However, i wasn't complaining - i could sit all evening by myself lost in thoughts in an ambiance so relaxing.
CBB is lit with beautiful dim lights. they have 2 options for seating. 1. regular 2/4/6 seater dining tables and 2. beach chairs and low rise tables facing the sea (although very little of the sea is actually visible).
i called for a peach sunrise (not sure if that was the name but there was nothing peachy about it. tasted more like mango) and a grilled vegetables wrap.
The drink was really tasty (would tasted a tad-bit better if it was vodka-infused, but the attendant was patient enough to explain why alcohol isn't served there for now)
i loved the wrap which was cut into 4 bite-sized portions and served.
the good food/drink was just a plus point at CBB; i doubt whether anyone would complain about the food with an ambiance like that!! (yes, we are THAT devoid of it)
I hear they also do foot massages in those beach chairs that i mentioned earlier. but the day i went, i was told that the service was available only for media (not sure if it was only for THAT day)
Definitely going there sometime soon with fiance and also with the girlfriends! :)
