First read about this cafe from a local blog and fell head over heal in love with this place. The nice ambiance and ease of locating prompt me to give it a visit~ Those who is going to Bangkok might want to check this place out too! It is just a few walks away from the station. Probably less than 5 minutes away.
Had a cup of frothy Hot Milk (45baht), a Long Black (75baht) and a slice of banana truffle cake (110baht). There was nothing fancy about the hot milk, just a comforting cup of froth milk which gives a better texture. The long black was too liquify / diluted and just tiny wee bits of crema can be seen. No aroma too, so not a good cup of coffee. The cake was not bad though ^^ Love the sweet banana which was not soft and a good combination with the chocolate. the scrapes of coconut on top blends quite well too!
I'm thinking this particular cafe is more for the tourist than the local as one of the activity that most visitors would do is to write / draw up their special note and post it around the cafe. My first trip with love and notes left for each other ^^ Wondering if it's still there..
Notes all over the walls left by others. wonder if they do clear up the old notes to make space for the new ones~
Visitors going crazy and even posting on the light cover. Haha..
The cafe counter is small and cozy but they serve a variety of drinks and cakes. Their froth milk is probably one of the cheapest I had!
The back portion of the shop was reserved for lifestyle and homey products. They are all arranged very nicely and gives out a good comfortable vibe to the cafe. Dried flowers and wooden brackets are love!
They sell a wide range or postcards which we can purchase and send it to friends and families back home. I'm one of those who would buy a piece of 2 postcards for collection. Definitely love to send one home to myself too but most of the time, am upset that I don't receive them most of the time. Yes, we do have postal problems here in Malaysia where post officers just dump letters/envelopes/cards somewhere so they don't have to deliver. Just hope it would stop by now.
The product highlights are most probably the aromatherapy oils, candles, soaps and any other related. I really love their scented products but again, it seems a little pricey to me. Perhaps I will get them one day when money is not much of a constraint for me.. For now, I just prefer to spend on something else :)
I would very much recommend anyone visiting Bangkok to drop by this place if you are looking for a nice quiet place to unwind from your hectic travelling. <3
