Given the name of their first cafe, all of us might expect them to name their second cafe something similar. If you do not know, Lola (according to urban dictionary), is a girl that fascinates guys with her stunning looks and great personality. So, a name like Aphrodite or Athena's Cafe might be what we are expecting.
But nope.
Their second cafe name is called "On The Table".... :
"Hey honey, I am going to register our new cafe's name. Have you thought of what to call it already?"
"Oh, the name is on the table!"
"Ermmm 'on the table'??"
"Yes, on the table!"
"Okayyyy....got it. See ya Honey!"
I strongly suspect this is the case because if you look at the name of the receipt, the printed name is NOT on the table. Yes, do check out your receipt when you dine in On The Table and see what is the actual name that is printed.
SO, Lola's Cafe owners, if you are reading this, TELL ME WAI? What happened to the name?!

Iced Latte ($5.50)
I liked the way they served it to us, makes for a very nice instagram-worthy photo with the black and white combination. Probably a little too much milk, which diluted the taste of the coffee. However, it came in a very big cup, which #auntiebean loves. Despite it being diluted, it still taste better than Starbucks' so this is still worth to order.
Salmon and Mushroom Truffle Cream Linguine ($16)
Ultimate Croissant ($13)
OKAY, I HAD MY ORGASMS AGAIN WITH THIS ULTIMATE CROISSANT. This #5evilbeans orgasm-inducing buttered croissant is served with honey glazed bacon, ham, mayo, honey, scrambled eggs, cheddar cheese and salad on the side. Why does this deserve #5evilbeans?
Firstly, the croissant is done PERFECTLY. The buttered insides are wonderfully soft and fluffy, while the outside is toasted to perfect crispness.
The scrambled eggs are just eggs produced in heaven. They are SOOO SOFT AND RUNNY and flavourfully dusted with chilli powder. I can totally eat this scrambled eggs for breakfast everyday and not get sick of it. And then the honey glazed bacon is simply sex.
If you manage to eat them all at once, you get a wonderful chorus of the crisp, toasted croissant, melting together with the smooth, runny scrambled eggs, with backup dancers honey glazed bacon and ham spreading their sweet honey at the tip of your tongue. YOU GOTTA TRY THIS HEAVEN-FOOD.
Raspberry Lemon Curd ($5)
This caught my eye when I was ordering at the counter. The cake was moist and the lemon was really sour, but it isn't something that you will gobble up within 5 minutes. However, if you have a cup of coffee and are intending to stay for at least 2-3 hours, this raspberry lemon curd will keep you company bite by bite.
Waffle with Baileys and Brownie Ice-Cream ($8)
Very pretty plating for the waffles I must say! The waffles was quite disappointing though. The batter that was used for the waffle was not fragrant enough, and it was not baked in the waffle-maker long enough to have the crispy edges which I love. So if you pair it with the ice-cream and the sauces, there is no texture because the waffle is too soft, which makes you feel like you are sending a spoonful of liquid into your mouth.
The ice-cream is good though! It doesn't melt too fast and it is not too sweet. From the instagram hashtags, the earl grey and salted caramel ice-cream seem to be quite popular. The Evilbean will definitely be back for more of their food (there is duck confit!!) and their specialty coffee and ice-creams.
Shoutout to the staffs working at On The Table - YOU GUYS ARE REALLY FRIENDLY! LET'S BE FRIENDS SO YOU CAN OFFER ME DISCOUNTS WHEN I GO BACK AGAIN!
(4)Evilbean's last words/recommendation:
- Friendly service, dazzling lightbulbs and awesome mains with no GST and Service Charge #auntiebean. Totally a perfect place to laze your afternoons away. The ice-creams are good, but skip the other desserts for now.
