A good combination of tangy tomato passata, with creamy burrata rolled in pesto sauce. Never have thought this would turn out to be quite decently good. Even better because it's 1 for 1 on burrple!
Satisfying bagels w great texture and substantial fillings! I love the maple mayo in the BEC, balances out the saltiness of the bacon(or ham). Love the melty cheddar and monterey jack as well.
Nasi lemak with fried pork belly, homemade achar, egg, anchovies, peanuts and homemade sambal.
Thinly sliced pork belly fried till extra crispy on the outside while retaining some moisture on the inside. It turned out better than expected as I thought it would be hard and dry just by looking at the thickness and crispiness of the pork belly. The homemade achar and sambal chili complimented well with the pork belly.

Nasi lemak with yellow ginger chicken, homemade achar, egg, anchovies, peanuts and homemade sambal.
The yellow ginger (turmeric) chicken is aromatic, moist, juicy and flavourful which goes well with the homemade crunchy achar and sambal chili. However, the rice was plain and lacks ‘lemak’ flavours. Overall it is still worth the try but it would better if they are to make improvements to the coconut rice.

Portion was quite big, could share with another person. Food was great and I love the fish & Chip sauce.
The proteins in the salmon and beef rice bowl were pretty well done:) the edamame was rather impressive too. would have loved more sauce. CHAI LATTE WAS GREAT!! The ambience was the best part of the meal imo.
The Bravery is one of those names that should not be a stranger to most who have been cafe-hopping since the uprising of the third-wave coffee movement — the Muslim-friendly establishment at Horne Road had since moved out of its former premises, and found new digs at Amoy Street recently, and is currently in its soft launch phase serving up a menu that differs between breakfast, lunch and dinner hours.
Being an item off the lunch menu that is being served only between 11am to 3pm, the Seafood Alfredo features elements such as tiger prawns, white clams, crab meat, cream sauce, garlic, shallots, crustacean oil and Ikura. While some pasta purists may lament on the use of cream sauce for their rendition of an Alfredo which usually only involves butter and parmesan, the Seafood Alfredo is an item that would please the average cafe-goer who are less into traditionalist approaches to cafe fare, and are more accustomed to the creamy pasta that is pretty much a crowd pleaser otherwise. The pasta here is seems to be done slightly past al-dente; slightly softer with lesser of a bite, but not particularly bothersome. Otherwise, the noodles are tossed in a mix of rich cream sauce and crustacean oil; the latter added to give a slight umami note that cuts across the creaminess for some balance — a nice touch to have in my opinion. Coming with a good variety of seafood, the clams were fairly decent, while the crab does give the pasta a slight crustacean sweetness that enhances the flavours of the crustacean oil used; the prawns could however be slightly fresher, though should still be pretty decent for those who are less picky overall. Not a fan of the microgreens (i.e. Alfafa sprouts) that they have included as a garnish; perhaps a slight sprinkle of herbs such as rosemary or thyme would have done a better job given the stringy texture and the slightly “green” flavour that we were not too much of a fan of, and did not seem to gel well with the seafood elements of this dish.
Hadn’t been back to The Bravery for quite a while; my visit to The Bravery previously was when the concept was still being run by the same folks behind The Plain and RONIN (both of which had since closed, and are succeeded by PUNCH and Gather). Times have changed pretty much for The Bravery; while we are unable to comment if they had pretty much stayed the same or have been consistent at Amoy Street when compared to their time at Horne Road after those times, The Bravery does seem like a spot that would work well for the folks who prefer safe and conventional cafe fare without being particularly over-the-top — a spot that would work decently for those who are just looking for something comforting that will not go wrong.
With team led by Sous Chef Melvin Lam and award-winning Head Barista Maryvn Tan, diners can expect an elevated menu comprising new dishes and their signatures dishes, freshly-baked treats and quality brews.
