This coffee shop in Taichung is quite impressive! During the day, it's a café, and at night it transforms into a chill cocktail bar. It's conveniently located next to the Green River, and the entire environment and atmosphere are spot on.
📌 Environment:
I chose to visit in the afternoon, and the shop had cute cats inside. The weather was great that day, and the cats were lounging on their beds soaking up the sun, which was super therapeutic and adorable.
My favorite part was the shelf filled with the "Blue Giant" comics.
These comics tell the story of a Japanese boy who loves jazz. Starting from self-learning to play the saxophone by the riverside, he eventually works hard to form a jazz band and even struggles in Europe. It's a very passionate and inspiring story.
I didn't expect the owner to have this set of comics, which shows a lot of sense 👍 I ended up reading several throughout the afternoon, and it perfectly matched the lazy and relaxed vibe of the café, making it very comfortable.

📌 Food:
Their menu is cool, with each page specially designed to create a cosmic feel, and it even includes the owner's brand concept: "Coffee is the drink of life."
In addition to various hand-brewed coffees, they also offer the shop's special coffee concoctions. The last page is the drink menu. The desserts are created in collaboration with Terroir Patisserie @terroir_patisserie.
I tried their special coffee concoction "Spring Bud" and a handmade dessert "Vanilla Caramel Cotton Pudding." I can only say the coffee is truly high-end, and the dessert is equally impressive, both in presentation and taste. If it weren't for my sensitivity to caffeine, I would have loved to try more of their coffee drinks!

📌 Service:
One of the baristas was a young guy who was quite chatty but didn't come across as overwhelming. He also recommended other hand-brewed coffee shops nearby, which felt great. Overall, the service quality was super top-notch, and I really liked it!

Overall, this café really gives off a very relaxing and pleasant vibe. The cats and comics are a big plus, and both the environment and service are above standard. The food is also outstanding. I highly recommend it to my friends in Taichung!
