When I was looking for a new cafe to work from in Cipete, this one immediately caught my attention — and honestly, how could it not? That giant tree stretching up to the ceiling is really eye-catching. Beyond the tree, the interior is beautifully designed: modern, with lots of greenery that adds a refreshing touch.

You’ll be asked to order from your table, so just make sure to raise your hand clearly—the staff took a bit of time to make my first order, which was a cappuccino. Thankfully, the second time around, the service was much quicker. I ordered a cappuccino and a pho. The cappuccino was good, and came with an unusual sea horse latte art (which was surprisingly pretty). The pho, though, was a bit too sour for my taste—not sure if that was intentional or just a one-off.

Price-wise, this cafe leans toward the pricey side, with drinks starting at 40K+ and food around 80K+. But considering the space and ambiance, it’s not too surprising.
