5 /5 Zedd Luk: I have been eyeing on this cafe for a while now since any Asian-fusion is my kinda go to when I look out for food, and plus I live in Epping, which is just a train stop away.
The cafe set up was quite minimalist and cozy, it was packed when I went there and lots of patrons were clearly having a great time with their friends and loved ones. The staff was quickly registered my entrance with a warm smile and guided me into one of the seats that weren’t so obscure to the more occupied guests. So yes, the atmosphere and vibe were great also.
I ordered the Kimchi Carbonara, one of the most popular dishes - it’s the best combination of the signature Korean and Italian cuisine. Or, should we say, just slapping the most common yet defining food item from those two countries, kimchi and you know, the white cream pasta haha.
But hey, it was surprisingly tasty and full of flavors, imagine your most favorite carbonara now comes with two of the most appetite opening flavors - the settle spiciness and sourness, all from the kimchi (and also those succulent pan fried prawns!!) surely you will get this down into your belly in no time. Well, I know I did at least.
However, the actual highlight of the day was the Black Sesame Latte that I ordered. It was just the right amount of sweetness and the bitterness from the sesame, one the best drink that I had in a while. And, even tho both item were in a more heavier side, but oddly it was such a perfect complementary to the Kimchi Carbonara that I ordered.
Haven’t tried any of their coffee but don’t think they would’ve been on the disappointment side either (which gave me a good reason to come back soon!)
If you love a good coffee, or just some quality food that will excite your taste buds, or perhaps just a long catch up with your friends, this will be one of the best place you can go in Eastwood. Highly recommended!
