Coffee Bombón ☕
✨"I went up, with that energy that one brings from everyday life. I went up with that constant thought that no one can resist this anymore. I asked for two coffees. He handed me the menu, and when I saw the prices, I couldn't believe it. I hesitated. I looked again. I still couldn't believe it. An espresso costs 25 pesos, and a café bombón (with condensed milk, a Maria biscuit and a chocolate bonbon) costs 150 pesos. We are talking about the national currency." @irankpotter
This Cafe Has a Backyard – Loka Coffee
✨"A quiet cafe is indeed a perfect place to relax. Especially if it has a slightly peaceful atmosphere with a shady corner. I was searching for a cafe recommendation with reliable wifi in my city, and this place came up. But if it wasn’t because I passed by this café on the way home from my go-to coffee shop, I wouldn’t even remember this place." @slowjournals
Best Addiction is Coffee! Hot Cafe Latte and Musubi satisfied my Mind and Cravings, made my day. Delighted My Day :)
✨"Cafe latte and Crab paste rice is a perfect combo for me, it satisfies my cravings. I prefer cake, but if my budget is not enough, crab paste rice is enough for me to make my day.The coffee is pricey, costing 2 hbd, but the price of the taste is worth it, and the crab paste rice is only 0.75 HBD, and for sure your stomach is full and will appreciate the taste." @antonette
A Cup of Coffee To Start Hive Fest
✨"I have to admit, I've done small things that ultimately led to the best moments and the most exciting travels this year. Before Hive Fest, I thought I wouldn't want to return to Kuala Lumpur because, at the time, I didn't find the vibe that good. I remember walking with my map, and someone approached me and asked me for a drink. It made me afraid and prejudiced—would everyone in Kuala Lumpur be like that? So I didn't want to go back, but Hive Fest made me break my promise. LOL. It was a small choice that ultimately made me say, 'Okay, it's okay to forget about that promise, let's just have fun.'" @viviehardika
HAUNTED COFFEE SHOP
✨"Regarding fear? I openly admit that I am naturally fearful, but not of life's challenges, rather of things that inspire terror in me, and of death. In a way, although I am drawn to the Halloween tradition because of the costumes and candy, it also inspires a bit of fear in me. Once, when I was a teenager, someone played a joke on all of us at a Halloween party. They turned off the lights and played a macabre voice on an audio recording, probably a cassette tape, but since it was unexpected, I seriously felt a high level of chills." @annafenix
Combination of coffee and work
✨"The attentive service of the staff working at the café and the welcoming atmosphere created the perfect climate for ideas to flow naturally during the exchange. Each argument and each reflection was accompanied by steaming sips of coffee, which added rhythm and warmth to the conversation. What began as a one-off meeting turned into a long day of work, during which we drew up a working agenda, delegating tasks and responsibilities." @crisch23
A Mocha by chance
✨"As usual, I had my sketchbook and pencils with me, and I wanted to do a quick sketch, so I went for it. A place like this allows you to draw on all your inspiration. I really liked what I created on paper between sips of coffee.
Even the café's bathroom is a dream. They have everything a girl needs in the bathroom.
I just have to say that amid the relaxing music, the aroma of coffee and chocolate from my steaming cup, my Zentangle doodles, and the conversation, I realised that what drew me to this place was good, and that I really had to come and see it." @chacald.dcymt
A little reflection at Café Aki
✨"A mutual friend told me about the place. Since she knows I love original and fun coffees, she pointed it out to me, and I was delighted, as I didn’t realize it was so close to where I spend my Sundays; at the time we couldn’t visit, but I was hooked on it until I finally got to go and have one of their coffees last Sunday, that is, yesterday. Upon arriving and after taking my obligatory photos and placing my order, my favourite moment arrived: reflection. I thot about my week and everything I had done until I arrived at this café." @brujita18
Coffee with hats and masks to make you smile!
✨"I suppose that in many places around the world you can find busy cafes where you can enjoy yourself in keeping with the spirit of the holiday, but here in my country the situation is different. Cuba is suffering the devastation caused by Hurricane Melissa in the eastern part of the island, and this only demonstrates, once again, how situations are deliberately created for us to live in constant fear." @roswelborges
THE SUPREME DELIGHT OF VENEZUELAN COCOA.
✨"They are then left to dry in the sun until the shell comes off easily when pressing each seed lightly, and then they are roasted in an oven, preferably at medium/low heat, for a long time. How do you know exactly when they are ready? By the aroma and toasted colour. Then we proceed to grind them while they are still hot. Grinding releases their fats, which begins to texture the paste. In my case, I go over it at least six times to reduce the lumps and micrograms of cocoa as much as possible to texture it correctly." @emily22
