KADA is a restored heritage building—once a mission hospital in 1923—now transformed into a lifestyle space with cafes and shops.

Sitting on its rooftop is Alani, a trendy Greek cafe with a colourful interior and a menu featuring pastries and brunch dishes inspired by Mediterranean flavours.

Here's what we tried:

🥑Avocado on Toast with Burnt Sherry Tomato Vinaigrette, Feta Cheese, Poached Eggs & Seeds

💸SGD24.00
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 4/5

My first time trying Greek/Mediterranean cuisine, and admittedly, this is a safe choice. But the toast is unlike any other bread I've ever had - it has a chewy texture, and the rest of the topping is just chef's kiss. Really delicious toast.

☕️Latte

💸SGD5.50
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 4/5

I'm probably a little biased because I love coffee, and I prefer medium-to-dark roasted coffee that is not overly bitter - and I think today's cup of coffee nailed it. So smooth and tasty. Would come back for more.

🍊Portokalopita with Bitter Chocolate & Phyllo Pastry

💸SGD10.00
⭐️⭐️⭐️ 3/5

This was an orange cake topped with a scoop of creamy dark chocolate ganache (I think) and some crispy phyllo pastry. Truly unlike any dessert I've ever had - it's refreshing and not too sweet, but it could be a bit exotic/adventurous for some, like me.

Overall, it was a memorable and unique cafe in Singapore - I'd love to return for other dishes.
