Café Loraine, my new happy place!

A few weeks ago I was introduced to this café and I knew I had to go as soon as I scrolled down their Instagram account. Everything is just too pretty!

My friends & I decided to go last weekend and try some of their seasonal drinks as well as their food. They have lots of Sakura stuff right now, and you know how much I love sakura.

It is called Loraine. They said their inspiration comes from the Hanami culture. They actually have a "hanami experience" event thing every Thursday. I wish I could go!

I'm gonna start with the decoration cuz I just loved it! Everything is white and pink, super cute and super girly. It has lots of spots where you can take nice pics and even the tiniest things have details that make this place special. 

It is not a big café and we did have to make a reservation because of the pandemic. The sanitation measures were great from the moment we arrived to the place, they even gave us a small paper bag to put our masks in while we ate and stuff. 

At the beginning we sat in the "common area" I guess, which was really nice and cute but once the VIP zone was free, we were moved there, which was great because we were super separated fromthe rest of the world (only 2 other tables) and well... we're too loud so, it was better for everyone. Hehe 😅

We were hungry so we started with fresh drinks and lunch.

We all had lemonades: Purple lemonade, pink lemonade and Manhattan lemonade.

Shepperd's pie, I didn't tried this one but the smell was great!

Caprese sandwich with salad. The bread was pink!! I took a bite and it was delish.

I had the Loraine Quiche. It also came with salad and I really, really liked it.

And even tho we were tempted to order dessert, we decided to try hot drinks instead. 

I had the Cappuccino Sakura of course. It's one of their seasonal drinks, it's the perfect mix between stong coffee and sweet cherry. It also had marshmallows on top.

Diana had another seasonal drink: Chai Latte Sakura. The whole presentation of this drink is just beautiful and the taste was pretty good too. Not super sweet.

And Eonni had the Taro Latte, this one wasn't exactly sweet but very... taro-ish!

The 3 of us were happy we got the chance to go. We literally spent hours catching up! The staff were very friendly and service was great. Prices wise I wouldn't say it's cheap but isn't expensive either. To me, the whole experience was worth it. 

And well, one of the girls from the staff helped us to take some pics so, I'm gonna share them here. Apparently their decoration changes every 2 months or so, depending on the season.

They open Tue - Sun from 9am to 8pm. They also have take out service, especially now. Totes recommend this place. I truly think it'll become one of my favs now!
