Encounter the spark of literary and artistic feelings in the literary cafe

"when you are in trouble, when you are in trouble of one kind or another-go to the cafe!" Austrian poets, who are used to writing in cafes every day, said so more than a hundred years ago. The cafe seems to have a strong literary amorous feelings from the day it was born. On the other hand, there are many cafes with literary and artistic styles in Guangzhou, but they are generally "kept in purdah." the old villas around Xinhe Pu Road in Dongshan, the residential communities in Tianhe and Jiangnan, and the streets of the old city, there are a lot of literary cafes hidden everywhere, waiting for you to explore. "Xiao Zi Xin", which has a history of 11 years, is the representative work of the oldest literary cafe in Guangzhou.

Outside the thick shade of trees, in the low-rise buildings with red walls and green tiles, the shop with dark brown exterior walls and black window mullions has a natural beauty of integration with the surrounding environment. Although it is right on the side of the French and political road, it is not easy to be found. but there is a sense of "looming in the city".

The furnishings in the shop are all old things recovered by the owner from everywhere, such as candlesticks, old-fashioned pianos, cups from different countries, old-fashioned fans. Superimposed to create a wonderful sense of exoticism and retro. Different from the cafes in the city, which love layers of mantle and pretend to be in the mood, the doors, beams and windows of the cafe are all coffee-colored logs with hard and crisp lines. In the evening when the lights are on, I sit down in the rattan chair by the window, order a cup of special black coffee called "sincerity", and watch the passers-by on the avenue outside the window pull out long shadows under the dim street lamp, just like a several-meter cartoon embedded in the window lattice. The landlady here has studied in Japan for many years, so the taste of coffee is slightly "Japanese". In the coffee shop, there are also photos collected by the landlady who have traveled around. If you are interested, you can look through them.

If we have such literary and artistic feelings with him (her), we may encounter sparks in such an elegant environment.
