If you look at the complexity of the address, you can see that the store must be hidden very deep. When you get to 1124 Xinzha Road, you have to go into it. Go to the end of the third row of residential areas on the right, and share an open-air yard with a small teahouse next to it. The first reaction when I walked in was to think of the song "the yard with trees in Houhai, the jade with work in the Xia Dynasty, the cloud at this moment, you in your twenties."

The decoration in the shop is extremely simple, but it is very comfortable, as if just coming to a friend's house as a guest door. When the weather is not too cold, you can sit in the yard and have a cup of coffee and chat, serve wine directly in the morning, and say love words to the bright moon and starry sky.

The boss, surnamed Li, once opened a coffee shop in Pudong for two years, then moved to Puxi and named the small cafe "UDefine", hoping that you would define your coffee. The channels for coffee beans are carefully selected, some from old friends who bake coffee beans full-time. During the chat, the landlady girl once brought the fragrant coffee to the table, bowed her head and drank it, and knew it was a good place to bring friends again next time.
