East District, Tainan City｜懨懨 sān sān

Beautiful cafe a bit hidden in a small alley. The staff was very friendly and helpful, and once I was shown to a table, one staff came to show me their menu in English (the paper one is only in Chinese). The basque cheesecake was tasty but the peanuts latte was the highlight! The cafe has 3 floors, but a limited number of tables. As its very popular, be prepared to potentially wait.

Great coffee, lovely interior with a lot of character. However, the place is very popular with the hipster crowd, and it gets a bit rowdy most of the time. If you are looking for a quiet place to read or relax, this isn't it. Because of how popular it is, they also enforce the time limit. They are really upfront about it so I find it fair and acceptable. I didn't take any stars off because I can't penalize a place for being popular. But overall the experience wasn't that great.

Basque is so delicious🥹😭
