Visited on 22 Oct 2014 (Wed) - Public Holiday. November 8 is a hipster cafe hidden in Thomson V Two Condominium building - (A mixed commercial & private residential development located along the junction of Sin Ming Road & Upper Thomson Road).
November 8 Cafe is hidden inside this L1 arcade!
The cafe has been around since late 2013 but i only came to know about this place recently through the Channel 8 drama "Against The Tide - 逆潮". (7th Photo below)
The cafe is very spacious with a rustic feel! Here are the front seats...
And here are the cosy corner seats at the back...
A screenshot for you to recall this place if you have watched this drama "Against The Tide- 逆潮"
This is their cashier counter and open kitchen.
Common Man Coffee Roasters beans were used here!
Latte (Large - $5.50)
Wow the coffee here was really super strong, thick and super bitter! Will definitely wake you up!
Big Breakfast ($19.50)
Bacon, Gourmet Pork Sausage, Gourmet York Ham, Honey Ham, Tomato, Sautéed Mushroom & Roasted Potato served on Focaccia Bread with Scrambled Eggs.
I must say all the combination here were great! Scrambled eggs were cooked to almost perfection (melted in the mouth) except it tasted a tad bland. Pork sausage was very peppery - I like! Focaccia Bread was soft & the rest of the items were very nice too. Nothing much to complain. A very filling & delightful breakfast!

Thai Iced Tea Waffle ($10.50)
Waffle with Thai Iced Tea Gelato ice cream & homemade Gula Meleka Sauce. I'm not really a waffle fan but I must say - Wow, i was really impressed with their waffle when i had my first bite on it! It was slightly crisp at the outside but fluffy inside with very aromatic gula melaka sauce and icing sugar on it! As for the Thai Iced Tea ice-cream, we were a tad disappointed as it did not have any robust taste, the taste of the iced tea was too mild...
Overall Impression:
I'm not sure about weekdays but during the weekends & public holidays, this cafe is always crowded and noisy within 30mins after they opened at 12pm. There is No GST and No Service Charge! The service here was average as there is no service charge.
Do quickly place your order once you're seated as the waiting time for the food is around 30mins time! Their food & waffle quality were indeed 1 of the BEST among the cafes! So we gotta be a little more patient to wait for the nice food...
