I met a man's coffee at the corner of the stairs.

Since the release of "Coffee alone", there has been a coffee craze again. It is not difficult to see the affectionate confessions of the pseudo-literary youth on Facebook-sipping Starbucks coffee, posting a profile photo embellished by Meitu, and a series of intermittent words to clarify the true meaning of coffee.

Nowadays, fine coffee seems to have become a trend, and the taste of coffee is endless: green tea nuts, hazelnut Blah blah blah blah. But who really knows how to appreciate the taste of a good cup of coffee and experience a person's coffee?

Pires Street, Upper Ring, is full of characteristic buildings. Through a long staircase at the west end, you can see a simple coffee shop quietly sitting on one side around the corner-this is the "Lof 10" cafe.

Running a library originally refers to the earliest supermarket in Hong Kong, which is different from only selling retail taxis. It sells a large number of foreign wine and cigarettes, and is also engaged in wholesale business. It is true that the original site of "Lof 10" used to be a pavilion, but it was later changed to Caf é by Marcus, the owner who returned to the United States.

Although the "Lof 10" is small, it has a high floor, L-shaped spacing and simple decoration, which makes the coffee shop feel full of space. Sitting near the door of the open design, you can feel the strong autumn breeze and warm and gorgeous sunshine; the plain gray-white cement wall, equipped with silver rust gate, exudates the style industrial flavor. Although it is remote, it is a good place to feel a moment of serenity, and Marcus is hoping that Lof 10 will provide a place for busy Hong Kong people to really taste coffee.

Only coffee beans from Handsome Coffee Roasters (HCR), a boutique roasted coffee shop in Los Angeles, California, are used every week from L.A. Fresh arrival, about 30 or 40 pounds at a time, make sure it's fresh. The characteristics of coffee beans belong to the type of light stir-fry. In addition to retaining the original coffee flavor, the degree of bitterness is also low, with a slightly sour taste of fruit and a thin taste.

Originally, Lof 10 only served coffee, but Marcus said that in the past two months, they have also begun to offer simple food and cakes for customers to taste.

Brioche with bacon and cheese and green salad

Hot pocket with green salad

Mean Na especially likes the cake here.

Coffee tart

The coffee is very fragrant, with a bitter taste in the mouth, but without losing the sweetness and acidity of the coffee; the tart skin is loose and moist, with a slightly smoky taste, which is a favorite of coffee fans Meanna.

Passion fruit cheesecake

Cheesecake made from blue cheese has a very special taste, with the characteristic smelly cheese flavor of blue cheese, full-bodied and mellow, more rich than the usual sweet or sour Cheesecake. Cheesecake melts slowly in his mouth, solid and Creamy.

Lemon meringue tart

The sour taste of lemon tarts is progressive, from the part covered with sugar grains to the Juicy lemon juice with different acidity and rich taste. Sweet but not greasy sugar grains also neutralize the taste of lemon, making the whole dessert very fresh.

Chocolate brownie

Full-bodied chocolate with a slightly bitter taste; Brownie is soft, chocolate sauce is slippery and delicate, cotton is soft, but it is thick.

Pineapple roll

The pineapple is sweet and sweet, and it matches the soft butter roll very well, and the material is full. The diced pineapple adds to the overall taste, and the slippery cream enhances the butter taste and highlights the unique sweet and sour taste of the pineapple.

Postscript:

In fact, "Lof 10" has another special meaning, that is, L is love, and of 10 = often, so it means love often. The figure-8 symbol in the middle of "do" also represents infinite meaning-"Within love, there are boundless opportunity" is really interesting, isn't it?
