Cafe Bonjour

One of my favorite cafes while I studied at HKU, probably because it was conveniently across the street. Bonjour is a cute little café that tries to live up to its name, though most people just walk by and grab something to go, most people do not even know there are plenty of places to … Continue reading

The Garden Cafe

For such a little café, it is definitely popular. Located on a semi-busy street along with a bunch of other little stores, even way after the lunch hour it was packed.

The little café has a cozy European feel of the French country side, with its chandelier, hanging plants outside, flowery seat cushions, and wrought iron garden tables. The windows made you feel like you … Continue reading

I was the only customer eating in; most of the customers walk by and buy the artisan breads and baked goods that sit up in the display counter. The menu had a mouth-water range of sandwiches and pastas. I got the special … Continue reading
