Hunt For A Good Cuppa

Coffee connoisseurs especially those who love Aussie and Kiwi coffees often lament the lack of a good cuppa in Singapore. Starbucks should be left to Americans who don't know any better and only want to seek out a familiar place and taste when they are travelling. We pity them, but should not join them in their folly.

I have done much research on the search of a good coffee in Singapore and am hereby declaring Forty Hands, a quirky cafe run by 2 Australian brothers in the gentrified area of Tiong Bahru which is now becoming hipper by the passing day (rents are shooting up there now), nestled amongst these Art Deco old Singapore Improvement Trust (predecessor of the current Housing Development Board) flats - to be the best Australian-style coffee in Singapore. I have an acute palate and have particularly high standards when it comes to things like food and coffee - and that's why you should believe me when I declare this tops in Singapore in the Australian-style coffee category.

Please also note that the prices are Australian as well, it costs $6 for a soy flat white ($1 extra for the soy milk) and $3.50 for a cookie to go with your cuppa.
