有一個星期一的下午,我和NK在結志街附近漫無目的的閑逛,逛來逛去在街市的一旁見到了一家毫不起眼的cafe,便走了進去。原來是一家面積頗細的咖啡店。但老土的一句,麻雀雖小,五臟俱全,而且凍櫃內的甜點蛋糕很吸引,再加上有我好奇的窩夫及香濃的咖啡香,我便決定一定要光顧!One weekday afternoon NK and I were wandering around Gage Street and then we spotted a cafe tucked away in the wet market on Gage Street. We decided to have a try. It's a small cafe but you can see all the professional coffee equipment squeezing in this small yet cozy cafe. You can also see all the desserts to go with your coffee...有一座懷舊的雪櫃,但不知是否可用的。A vintage fridge
One weekday afternoon NK and I were wandering around Gage Street and then we spotted a cafe tucked away in the wet market on Gage Street. We decided to have a try. It's a small cafe but you can see all the professional coffee equipment squeezing in this small yet cozy cafe. You can also see all the desserts to go with your coffee... 有一座懷舊的雪櫃,但不知是否可用的。
A vintage fridge, I wondered if it's still functioning. 這裡有下午茶套餐供應,這一頁是一些飽肚的食物。
They provide afternoon tea set and on this page you can find items which can fill you up. 下一頁是甜點蛋糕的套餐。
The other page is for dessert and cake sets. Cappuccino & Mocha - 先來的是咖啡,我選了cappuccino,NK點了mocha。很大的一杯。Cappuccino有非常簡單的拉花,很有咖啡香。入口很滑很好喝。Mocha面頭則灑滿了朱古力粉,朱古力味不會太重,與咖啡味配合得很好。每杯咖啡都會附上biscotti一件,biscotti不太甜,頗好吃。
Cappuccino & Mocha - Coffee arrived first. Cappuccino for me, mocha for NK. They were of quite a large size. A simple heart on top of my cappuccino. Its coffee aroma was strong. Simple and good. As to the mocha, there was chocolate powder on it. The chocolate taste was about right, not overpowering the coffee taste. Each coffee came with a piece of biscotti which was surprisingly good without being too sweet. Lemon Meringue Tart - 我們在眾多的甜點中點了lemon meringue tart,因為外形很美。
Lemon Meringue Tart - We picked lemon meringue tart as it looked really pretty. 整件tart都與我們的預期一樣,一點都不甜,很清新。不過,meringue好像有一點"太不甜",變得有一點淡味。檸檬filling幼滑,檸檬味挺濃也不會有加工的感覺。tart皮很薄,略嫌不太脆,但也好吃。
As we expected, the tart was light and not sweet at all. As much as it was refreshing, the meringue was a bit blend. The lemon filling was smooth and the lemon taste was strong and not artificial. The crust was very thin, not too flaky but good enough. Freshly Made Waffle with Gelato - 另一食品是Waffle。可以見到是很簡單的一碟,有別於現在在外面很流行的大堆頭waffle。下午茶餐的份量為半份waffle,不知道散叫的話是否會有一整份。Waffle上是gelato,吃上來就是朱古力味挺濃的雪糕。Waffle是新鮮焗製,邊沿及面頭坑紋的部分是脆的,中間的部分則煙韌而口感十足,很好吃!
Freshly Made Waffle with Gelato - Another item for us was the waffle. It was a simple dish, very much going against the recent trend of having a plate of waffles with large amount of fruits and ice cream elsewhere. For tea set, they only served half portion of the waffle and we suspected they would serve a whole waffle for a la carte menu. On the waffle lied the chocolate gelato. The waffle was freshly made and the sides were crunchy while the middle was chewy. It was really delicious! 這裡的咖啡及甜點水準都很高,而且價錢合理。下次來會點一整份的waffle!
We were happy to find high quality of food and coffee at a reasonable price here. Next time I would definitely go for a whole waffle!
