Epilogue

Epilogue is a newly revamped cafe situated within Prologue, the bookstore, in Ion Orchard mall. It not only has a relaxed ambiance but also allows for a nice view of Orchard Road, and gives you the easy access to literature within the bookstore. Epilogue uses a creative touch by piercing their light poles, for their ceiling lamps, through stacks of books.

 

 We chose to sit by the window, overlooking the busy junction of Orchard Road. The furniture they have chosen for this cafe is in line with their style of a homely and cozy place where you can sit and read comfortably for hours.

With a minimum spending of $25, you can pick a book of your choice from the available selections.

Presentation of beef lasagna ($9) dish was lackluster. However, the taste was actually good besides the fact that the beef was a tad too dry. The tomato sauce was really tasty!

The smoked salmon sandwich ($12.50) was well balanced with smoked salmon and greens complimenting each other. The salad at the side lacked sufficient dressing but overall, it is one of the best smoked salmon sandwich I ever had!

 
Ice Lemon Tea ($6.50). For the price that it cost, it was honestly a disappointment as it was just purely lemon and unsweetened tea. We expected to be a little more value for money, other than just the portion.

The red velvet cake ($6.50) was nicely presented, and it had a taste that could match up to that. It was not too sweet, but was still able to bring out the slightly chocolatey taste. At the same time, the two layers of cheese in between allowed for a pleasant mix to add flavor to the cake.

Overall, the service and ambiance was excellent (ratings 4/5) and food was only good (ratings 3.5/5).
