Committed to industrial rawness with that peeling-paint wall act, dimly-lit bulbs in frayed ropes, and enhanced by dull-coloured hi-fi sets on display, the grunge-look at Rouse is finished by meaty rustic fare such as open-faced roast beef sandwich ($15.90), crabby patty ($18) and quinoa quake (poached egg atop a quinoa patty with smoked salmon and lemon dill yogurt, $15.90). The smokey yet bright bodied coffee from Dutch Colony ($5.50) and pots of tea from The 1872 Clipper Tea Co (from $7) brings pieces of Pasarbella into Little India.
