Wakey Wakey is perhaps one of the better cafes to hang out on a weekend in Singapore. Away from the crowds and in a very spacious space with a breezy outdoors, it is great for those who prefer a quiet and relaxing weekend in a cafe with a book or laptop. This is my second time to Wakey Wakey, and this time they have added more food options in their menu.
The coffee is impeccable, coffee just a tad acidic in the first few sips. The cafe probably serves one of the better latte art in Singapore. As for meals, one can't fault them for trying something different from the usual cafe fare, though portion sizes are a little small, unless you opt for the grain bowls.
In my first trip to Wakey Wakey, I tried their westernized rendition of begedil (Malay potato patty) which was delicious but a small portion for the price I had to pay. And in my second trip, I had the chilli crab stew with bread, again another small portion, with bread a little on the hard end. It tastes just like shakshuka, but a localized version of it. My friend had the beef grain bowl, which was a better deal for the price of $15, but the beef did not look too exciting for me. We shared curry fries which was an interesting concept, though I would have preferred the fries to be thicker.
