Cafe Review: Duchess Brunch@ Broadcast HQ

Sunday brunch at Broadcast HQ, a really chill place which rocks alternative beats while you munch. Nigel DJ-ed there last week and it's pretty near all our houses, so we gave it a shot. It's a 3-storey shophouse on Rowell Road (full of character already) and I love brick walls, and they have brick walls (score!). Brunch was on first floor, with a niffy music section where you can buy vinyls and they broadcast concert footage. I think there's a dancefloor/bar on the 2nd and 3rd floors, have to go back to check it out and try their sake peach jelly tingamajig.

For the food, don't expect your usual brunch breakfast plates with scrambled eggs. We had the braised pork cheeks with a sunny-side-up, baked beans and sausages, topped with toast (SGD20). The wanton chips were good, I recommend it with the cheese and onion dip, and the pea guacamole (SGD 16 with 3 dips, SGD 4 to top up chips). Only miff was that the coffee was slightly over-roasted and could have been done better. But overall, a really chill place to hang out if you like indie music.
