단순히 열을 가한 물이 아닌 섬세하게 온도조절로 빚어낸 뜨거운 물이라 커피맛이 고급집니다. 한 모금 빠는 순간 혀에서 느껴진 감동이 이미지로 형상화되어 눈 앞에 아른 거리는데 아는 지인한테 말했더니 카페인 때문일 수 있다고 하네요.

커피빈이 있던 자리에 새롭게 들어오게된 카페입니다. 시원하게 오픈된 구조에 깔끔한 인테리어에요. 빵과 디저트류도 같이 판매해서 더 좋네요. 음료도 괜찮아요! 전체 가격이 이미 할인이 들어간 가격이라고 합니다.

Almost KAIST students or staffs in weekdays, and some outsiders in weekend. Nice for study or meeting. Kiosk order.

공간 완전 넓고 분위기 최고. 떠들어도 공간이 커서 소리 안 울리는 것이 너무 좋다. 햇살드는 창밖으로는 고양이와 유치원생들이 귀엽게 걸어다닙니다.
