The matcha latte made by the Korean owner is so good! It has a strong matcha taste and not too sweet. We wanted to try a red bean doughnut but 3 was too many, the Korean owner was so kind to give us a complimentary red bean doughnut, and the sweetness and chewiness of the doughnut is just right! Would love to try their rice cake when we visit this lovely cafe again!

I LOVE this coffeeshop. Their Korean donuts are to die for, a very dangerous discovery for me because I am so tempted to get some every time I pass by. I love cappuccino, it comes in a big mug and feels so comforting, especially on a rainy day. They also have a big variety of rice cakes, which are extremely popular.

Found a hidden gem. We tried 3 drinks and 3 Korean traditional desserts - they all didn't disappoint. Special mention for their best seller - the grapefruit ade. Refreshing especially after a long walk by the nearby marina. The dude that served us was so thoughtful and helpful. Gave us a free dessert. Gave us scissors in case we needed to cut the glutinous dessert for our kids. Gave us spare cups in case we wanted to have our kids share the drinks. All without us asking. 5\5 will come again!
