Juwei Old Nanyang Coffee Shop at Safra 29 Carpenter Street Singapore

Discover this hidden gem from instagram, hubby is a safra member but we never visit this safra branch at Carpenter Street. It was indeed a hidden gem, lovely cozy place and good food. There was a coffeeshop on the ground floor, a restaurant , karaoke and a live band on the higher floors. I wonder if we senior folks would be kicked out of the live band venue , seems a favoutie haunt of the youngsters hahaha.
Safra at 29th Carpenter Street easily access from Clarke Quay MRT Station Exit E, just crossed over the road from the station and turned left to Carpenter Street and Safra building is easily visible.

Nice decorations in the Nanyang Coffeeshop, love the dragon feature on the wall.

This is the breakfast menu, did not take photo of the lunch menu.
The portion is very big for one person.
