Pingxi District, New Taipei City｜與路 Yu Lu Café

I visited this cafe and it was one of the most relaxing atmospheres I have ever been in. I suggest you go during a rainy day, the space is open so you can see and hear the rain as you drink your coffee. The train also goes right by this shop and it is so magical to see. The owner is extremely kind and welcoming! The coffee was tasty and so were the desserts. I highly recommend the brownie, that was my favorite. There is also a dog that hangs out around the store, he is a bit grumpy, but if you leave him alone he is fine. Just something to keep in mind if you are afraid of dogs! Please stop by if you get a chance!!

路的尽头 仍然是路 只要你愿意走 Take public transport for an hour+ to this cafe. It never failed to amaze me with the coffee, environment and great hospitality of the young boss. (on a rainy day he ran over to the train station to pass me an umbrella, thank you so much!) If you are looking to rest your mind in a bustling city, this is the place for you.

Making my way to this faraway train station based cafe was one of the closest things to traveling this pasted year. And the sandwich reminded me of how Murakami Haruki described sandwiches in《Hard-Boiled Wonderland and the End of the World 》(世界末日與冷酷異境/村上春樹) #coffee #cafe #train #food #sandwich #taipei #taiwan #weekender #faraway
