Comments:

Bright, minimalistic, unassuming interior that packed a punch with the coffee & food.
Coffee was definitely high in the ranks - rivaling ones we’ve had at Rufous Coffee Roasters. We’d recommend the Rwanda & Ethiopian single origin brews. Taiwan has some serious cafe culture.
The star of the full experience was the egg in the Cajun beef panini meal - seriously cooked with care. Just like Gordon Ramsey, we use the cookery of a simple scrambled egg as a benchmark of a chef's ability. We were pleasantly surprised with this one.
The warm Mochi Scone Stuffed with Passion and Honey was quite unique
This meal was so good that our friends @meyerbelles & @thellimist ordered the exact same thing and were not disappointed. Great meal size and delicious.
