I was unsure of how it should sound. Nowhere, or Now Here? Seeing as how it is located at West Coast Plaza, which is obviously somewhere, I'm betting on the latter.

The first thing one notices is the elevated platform where the counter is; customers follow a one-way queue to order. The counter staff will request for your table number, which the girl manning the front line was kind enough to inform us about.
The Al Fungi Spaghetti ($12.80) is lightly coated in cream sauce and drizzled with olive and truffle oil. A relatively large quantity of fresh and juicy button, shiitake and white mushrooms nestle among crunchy onions. Its deceptively small size You'll certainly get your money's worth.
Among its common brethren like mushroom baked rice and chicken baked rice, the Chili Crab Baked Rice ($14.80) stands out.
Despite being blanketed by a stretchy layer of cheese, the smooth rice grains retain their firmness. Thick shreds of crab meat are scattered within, the flavor further enhanced by garlic bits and by the light spiciness of the tomato sauce. A mouth-watering experience!
Coffee Nowhere is one of the few cafes I've been to that serves cold drinks on coasters...which still didn't prevent the 'water-ring' from forming as condensation occurred.
The Lychee Lemonade ($7.80) tasted mainly of lychee. There was barely any lemon flavor; a faux pas for lemonade. I requested for syrup (it was promptly delivered by the staff), yet it sharpened only the lychee aftertaste. Where was the lemon?
Don't get this unless you like bland carbonated drinks.
The Honey Lemon ($4.80) wasn't as sweet as I wanted it to be, but its wonderful infusion of lemon kept the drink from getting a lower grade. Do note that the cold version is more diluted.
I didn't manage to try their tempting-looking desserts. The next time I pop by, I'm zooming in on their black velvet cake.
