Cosafe is a maid-themed cafe, located at Chjimes, it's just a few minutes walk from City Hall MRT Station, so it shouldn't be quite a hassle to find your way here. The cosplay concept is noticeably from Japan, where it features waitresses, dressed in French maid costumes serving the customers. Other than this, it has got nothing else to do with cosplay.
(But that doesn't stop guys from flocking down here to ogle at the maids. Actually, I kind of believe most male patrons visited Cosafe, not for the food.)
Customers can either choose to dine al fresco(/outdoors), or indoors, a dimly-lit area, with neatly-placed tablewares and an impressive collection of wine. They do screen live events(EPL matches, F1 etc) too.
I visited Cosafe twice (non-peak and peak seasons), with different batch of friends, and at both occasions ordered different dishes (all pastas, in fact.) As a pasta lover, I've to say that their pastas are of a high standard - to start off, the pasta are al-dente, this seems to be an easy task, but not many restaurants/cafes are able to cook their pasta to perfect doneness. The cream in Carbonara isn't overwhelming, the beef and seafood are nicely done up too. Plus!
Must try: Pasta Pescatore, Grain Fed Beef Linguine.
Kurobuta Burger (SGD$18.80) - Serving is perfect for an average eater.
+ Taste infused well into the meat.
+ Salad goes well with the burger.
- Meat is tough.
Service-wise, the maids are friendly and they greeted me on both periods, when I entered and left. Even when I leave for the restroom, they will smile and nod lightly. On the table, they always make sure that the cutlery are placed at the correct positions, even when they are serving, they are meticulous to details, as to which sides the dishes and glasses are placed.
(I do hope that this comments are not biased, as most of the time, we're served by my girlfriend. Opps.)
Ohh! Plus, they will kindly obliged to request of having your photo taken with them. Definitely another point for Cosafe.
Great for (guys) night-out/gatherings.
P.S.
Just don't get too friendly with my girl.
See no touch.
Yes, it's a warning.
Thank you.
