Was surfing on Open Rice and looking for a small cafe on Sat morning. Tired of those fast food shops. Arrived just slightly after 10am. Greeted by two staff there. I was the only customer there as they just opened. Couldn't make up my mind between cakes and sandwiches. Should be sandwiches as breakfast but read all comments about cakes. Looks like better not missed it. Well, decided to try cake as croissant was not available. Not sure it my luck or not. The lady explained each kindof c
Arrived just slightly after 10am. Greeted by two staff there. I was the only customer there as they just opened. Couldn't make up my mind between cakes and sandwiches. Should be sandwiches as breakfast but read all comments about cakes. Looks like better not missed it.
Well, decided to try cake as croissant was not available. Not sure it my luck or not.
The lady explained each kindof cakes patiently just like a friend.
Well, I like green tea and blueberry one so much. But I picked a special one "osmanthus tofu cheese cake".
It tasted very good. Not strong kind of cheese cake. So the taste of tofu not be covered. Like the soft texture as well. Could have more scent of osmanthusHad to have something to drink...... flatwhite, latte, mocha...... green tea latte... hmm.. "Browny". Wondered if it's their signature coffee. Well, that friendly lady told me it's espresso mixed with cold milk. It could be served separately. So customer could adjust the portion between coffee and milk. Hot coffee added into cold milk would add different taste level. So I tried it and asked to serve coffee and milk together. It looks good.
Regreted once taking a sip. Should ask to serve coffee and milk separately. It was too much milk for me. Prefered strong coffee. And I didn't like the warm feeling of coffee. Should have a sip of hot coffee and then a sip of cold milk? Interesting.Decoraton was lovely. A hand knitted bear with coffee press in one corner.
And there were some travel books you could read while enjoying the meal.The guy there were so friendly too. He gave me one more cup of water after I finishing the food. He even asked if I wanted warm water. And told me I could stay there.
Cake + coffee = HKD44.00
When I left found the outdoor corner was so lovely. It wasn't ready yet when I arrived. If not, I definitely would sit outside.
All in all, a lovely small friendly cafe as other comments. But could give little advices if they don't mind1) they could think about serving breakfast as they served sandwich. Just sandwich or toast, add scramble eggs or sausage? plus coffee. That would be lovely as a breakfast.
2) there is no napkin...........would be lovely if they could provide it as well.
