Catfish-- an encounter between Cat and Coffee

In fact, we have been looking for that kind of mood, no matter when we go to sit down when we are depressed, we will be very comfortable and imaginative. So that life can slow down, soft lights, personalized menu, a variety of cups, photos, pendants …... I like drinking coffee, sitting quietly, holding the sleeping cat on my knee, looking at the scenery out of the window, chatting with friends and exchanging stories with strange coffee drinkers. And this is also my imaginary cafe, a cafe about dreams and persistence-the Maodong Cafe in Hong Kong Square at the Sibei intersection.

Life is actually a journey, we may go to any city, live, work, drink coffee, see the scenery. But here, Xiamen is a comfortable city and Maowan is a quiet cafe. Cats and professional boutique coffee are the two major features of Maomao. Different from other cafes, the owner's request for the cafe is a place for coffee exchange, so a long bar and comfortable bar chairs are essential. It is convenient for many friends in the industry and coffee lovers to come to exchange and discuss their experiences. The second floor of Maodong is different from other cafes. It is mainly made of warm tatami mats, with soft pillows and comfortable cushions, so that people can sit down comfortably and quietly after a tired day's work. Let coffee massage your tired mood.

From the shopkeeper's point of view, cats, like coffee, are warm things, cats warm your body, coffee warms your mood. And I always hope that in cafes where warm lights can shine through the windows, push open the door and order a cup of hot coffee, and then a cat will jump on the sofa next to you and fall asleep against you. Many guests who come to Maotou have expressed the same feeling in Maomao-Maohu is like a woman waiting for you to come home. She puts the noise and complexity of the whole city outside the door, but let go of the dust that sneaks in.

I like a quiet restaurant like this very much, filled with the fragrance of coffee, the warm light from the crack in the door, the people in the room talking quietly in the sound of bean grinder and coffee beans, or teasing the two kittens in the store. By the way, in the Cafe Cafe, these two kittens are responsible for receiving the guests, and they are also the two managers of the Caterpillar. The manager is the small cochlea, and the deputy manager is Xiao Xiao. The store manager, Xiao Che, is a fat man who likes to play with guests and often jumps to female guests. I believe that many male compatriots will want to be reincarnated as a cochlea in their next life. Xiao Xiao is a lonely patient, anorexic, eating the same cat food, the small cochlea can be eaten into a big fat man, but the small one is quite the opposite, like a child raised by a stepmother, who is pitifully thin and does not like to play with guests very much. but always a person in the distance quietly watching the small cochlea being held by the guests, mixed feelings in the eyes.

In fact, we are all stray cats in the city, lonely and lonely. The owner of Maodong opened such a cafe to make everyone feel that there is always a warm place in this city that silently warms all the people who are wandering in the city. As long as we always believe that no matter how bleak the future is, it is an attitude we adhere to. Perhaps time in the hasty passage of dense, in the initial dream disappeared without a trace, but only we know, can live, is a happy cat.

The cat cat is actually very beautiful. It is located in the quiet position of the Hong Kong Plaza at the Sibei intersection, 296 Xiamen Road. A small wooden door keeps the noise of the world out of the cat cat, and enters the small wooden door of the cat. It will make you feel that time stops in an instant, just stay in the dark brown coffee liquid in the cup. There is a small wall clock in the cat shop, but time will not go, because the owner hopes that all the friends who walk into the cat dog cafe can put down the time, the hustle and bustle of the city, the pressure of work, and everything. And the cat's time always stops at 23:37, because that's the time when the librarian misses someone every day. He wants to stay forever when he thinks about that person, and wants to keep that time forever.

Cat's dessert is very attractive, the hostess uses expensive raw materials to bake carefully, each dessert is limited, sold out, maybe this time to eat the favorite dessert, there will be no next time. In the hostess's mind, dessert is like her own child, each dessert is different, so she doesn't want to make the same dessert every time, because it feels like a machine is copying things. Only by putting a strong mood into the dessert can the people who eat it feel the difference of each dessert.

In Xiamen, a city with such a high density of cafes, the pressure to open a pure cafe is actually very great. Many cafes are unable to survive, so they mainly promote meals or milk tea, selling meals and milk tea in the name of cafes. But Maomao is different. Maomao is a pure cafe, with its own roasted coffee beans and professional coffee-making process, allowing the aroma of each cup of coffee to permeate every guest's heart. If you are lucky, when you meet the librarian in the store, you can also professionally explain some knowledge of coffee culture, which is also the original intention of the librarian who insisted on making a long bar so that he can communicate with every guest and exchange the art in the coffee cup.

From a coffee lover a long time ago to when he began to brew and make coffee himself, the owner always felt that the so-called "good coffee" in every cafe in his current city was different, so he decided to start looking for his favorite coffee flavor and wanted to fulfill his dream of opening a coffee shop. The owner of Maodong still firmly believes that there is no such thing as good coffee or bad coffee. Only coffee that makes people feel comfortable and coffee made with heart can be called a good cup of coffee. But no matter what happens in the future, Maomao is determined to follow the same path-never buy food and milk tea in the name of a cafe. Therefore, the drinks in Maohu Cafe are basically coffee-based. Boutique coffee and fancy coffee are the characteristics of Maomao Coffee Coffee. Every month, the owner will look for some boutique coffee beans everywhere, the quantity is small, and it will end when it is sold out. In addition to the Irish coffee with whisky aroma and the noble royal coffee, fancy coffee is all creative coffee developed by the owner himself. Behind each fancy coffee, there is a touching story, such as the exclusive special "Rain Day", which is served only when it rains, as well as "burying Love", "girlfriends", "tears of the Mona Lisa", "memories" and so on. Guests who want to hear a story can come to Maoqi and ask the owner to tell a story.
