Professional barista communication, please pay attention to coffee workshop (Weixin Official Accounts cafe_style )

Dragon Boat Festival small long holiday is coming, penguin Jun has long been unable to hold back a wave of heart!

There were many friends who left messages in the background:

"Xiamen! Xiamen! When will you come to Xiamen?"

"Next time, we can include Xiamen in the milk tea evaluation! Come drink KOI, it's so good!"

"Pineapple Crisp Xiamen Can Make up a Test for Ajizi"

"Want a coffee map of Xiamen"...

Penguin heard you! Buy tickets now!

To Xiamen tourism, probably in any case can not bypass three places: small fresh holy land Gulangyu, the most beautiful Xiamen University campus, suitable for shopping and eating Zhongshan Road. These popular scenic spots waiting to punch cards are crowded, and all kinds of small shops are more eye-catching.

Thanks to Xiamen's strong literary atmosphere, there are more than 2000 cafes on this 128-square-kilometer island (about 2 Xuhui District and 3.5 Jing 'an District), ranking first in China in density beyond Beishangguang.

It was hard to distinguish the overwhelming number of recommendations on the Internet. And because of the influence of desktop coffee chains, many cafes may be much more form than content. Therefore, if you want to avoid minefields and quickly find a quality cafe, you definitely need an old driver to lead the way!

This time Penguin specially invited Xiamen's indigenous friends to choose 5 cafes that are really worth visiting near popular scenic spots for everyone, and attached a full version of the recommended list at the end of the article. Thank you: )

Whether you are tired and looking for a place to rest, or a busy schedule, just enough to stop by for a drink, you will not be disappointed.

Never been to Gulangyu,

Not to mention Xiamen.

This condensed museum of architecture of the nations,

Red brick trees, melodious zither music, really make people infatuated.

1 |Chujia Park

Address: No.15 Zhonghua Road, Gulangyu (near Stadium)

Business Hours: 10:30-21:30

Recommended drinks: cappuccino; for dessert lovers, try tiramisu

Chu family is a family with a history of 100 years. In the early 1920s, they operated a medicinal herb business in the Philippines. In 1932, Mr. Chu, an overseas Chinese, returned to Xiamen and built this old red brick house with an area of nearly 1,000 square meters on Gulangyu Island. In 2008, the fourth generation of the family, Xie Lida and his wife, spent two years transforming the ancestral old house into today's garden-style cafe.

This is one of the oldest cafes on the island, and it can be called the coffee landmark of Gulangyu Island.

The yard was full of vibrant greenery and carefully tended potted plants. It's very comfortable to sit and blow for a while. The interior follows the decoration style of the house itself,"old as old", quite charming.

The environment is excellent and the coffee is excellent. Flavor balanced, creamy foam. Dig a spoonful of homemade tiramisu, sip milk coffee, and quickly sink into the happiness of wine fragrance, milk fragrance and coffee fragrance.

Here, the champion of China in the 11th WBC--World Barista Championship in 2013 was cultivated! At that time, Xiamen's fine coffee had just started, and Chu Jiayuan could train professionals to participate in the competition and obtain excellent results, which was not easy.

To this day, it is still one of the few cafes in Gulangyu's commercialization wave that always sticks to its heart.

Simple and romantic Xiamen University campus,

It is one of the most popular destinations on the island.

Around the ancient temple Nanputuo,

Shapowei and Fengfeng Dock, which retain the style of fishing village,

All are worth a careful visit.

2 | Cup's

Address: 1/F, No. 11 Nanhua Road (near Siming South Road)

Business hours: 10:30-22:30, closed on Tuesday

Recommended drink: Iced coffee (Yega sherry)

Nanhua Road is not a tourist gathering area and is relatively secluded. Small foreign-style houses combining Southeast Asian customs and Minnan characteristics are scattered in twos and threes on this path.

Cup s is not far from the entrance of Nanhua Road. There is a unique small courtyard, and it is especially comfortable to sit outside and enjoy the cool on a good night.

The store was neatly and warmly decorated, with a separate hand-washing area. There is a wide selection of single-origin coffees, and guests can ask the barista or try coffee beans from different origins according to their preferences.

The manager is an international judge of WBC, so he has quite professional and strict control over coffee quality, presentation method and so on. Remember to try it when passing Nanhua Road.

3 | Barista Honor

Address: No.2 University Road

Business Hours: 8:00-23:00

Recommended drinks: iced coffee, hand-brewed items

The small and beautiful Barista Honor is located near the mouth of Sha Po Mei, white style, fresh and bright.

There are more than 10 single beans and 3 different Italian blends in the store. Maintaining variety and freshness is a challenge for consistency, and baristas need to be confident enough to present each bean.

In addition to coffee lovers, neighbors also like to sit down and chat and have a drink. It's like a bond, connecting people and coffee.

BH2GO, not far from the old store, is committed to developing caffeine-free healthy drinks. You may wish to pack a cup when you pass by ~

As the original center of Xiamen Island,

Arcade Buildings in Laocheng District and the Style of Old Xiamen

Worth a look.

4 | 32How

Address: No.32 Huaxin Road (near Zhongshan Park West Gate)

Business Hours: 10:00-22:00

Recommended drink: coffee made by siphon pot

Xiamen's old boutique cafe, the first floor is used to make coffee, the second floor is opened coffee academy.

The store mainly serves siphons and hand brews, no espresso.

Making coffee in a siphon pot resembles a fun science experiment,"When to install the pot" and "How to control the temperature of the water rising to the top pot"... All of this requires repeated experiments and accumulated experience to do well.

There is a wide selection of coffee beans to choose from, and students who want to explore the wonderful world of flavor will love it here!

The cups and saucers produced are mostly bone china works from all over the world, which are very exquisite. Take a sip of coffee and say,"Good things go with good things," or so it goes.

5 | 21grams coffee

Address: No. 92 Dazhong Road, Zhonghua Street (near Yuehua Shachamian)

Business Hours: 8:30-20:00

Recommended drink: latte

A mini corner cafe in Laocheng District. Gray tone, compact layout, 10 square meters of area but both street takeout and part of the function of hall food (bring a cup can also reduce 5 yuan). Latte is rich and mellow, hand-washed professionally, paying attention to details.

It seems that there is a magnetic field here, attracting fans from afar, and invisibly transmitting their love for coffee to the people around them.

"Heavy" quality "light" environment, approachable price level above the production, at present more and more such types of small restaurants are quietly emerging in the country, in the most simple and direct way to promote fine coffee.

If Zhongshan Road is a must-visit place, then 21grams coffee should be considered a must-see choice when passing Zhongshan Road. Hope you find good coffee around the corner!

- Enclosed is the full recommended list-

I don't know when,"literature" and "small fresh" flood,"online fame" in power, many shops at first glance good appearance, fine taste but no connotation.

The real vitality of the coffee shop, often difficult first and then easy, finally rely on the quality of obsession, self-discipline, and never stop the determination to break a broad world. After all, the winners are those who stand the test of time and the market.
