Found a new cafe in Mongolia

Here in Mongolia there are no Starbucks unlike in Manila where there's one every corner (OK that's already exaggerated but in Makati City it's close to that.)  There is a Caffe Ti-amo though and there's about four of them here in Ulaanbaatar.  I've tried the one in Sky Department Store during my first month here.

I've blogged about Caffe Ti-amo about two years ago where I fell in love with their Gelatos and Affogatos (you can find my blog entry here Favorites: Gelato)  So when I saw the Caffe Ti-Amo here I tried their affogato and I was immediately brought back home even for just a few minutes.  Incidentally, I also met some Filipinos working here in Mongolia during that time too so the sound of people talking in my native tongue completed the experience. You can check out Caffe Ti-Amo Mongolia's  FB page here: https://www.facebook.com/caffetiamo.

However, today it was a welcome surprise to find this new cafe at the ground floor of Home Plaza Shopping Center near where I live aptly named "Cafe".  And as always, the first thing I tried is my all time favorite the Caramel Macchiato.

I would say the coffee and cake was not bad at all.  The mocha roll does have sesame seeds which was not quite a good combination with mocha but I would have to try the other cakes and their sandwiches next time to make a better assessment.  The price and ambiance was also OK and gives a home style atmosphere.  I also noticed that their tea and coffee are also offered as either hot or as a cold beverage which gives more variety   Next time I will try my favorite tea concoction which is the Chai Latte.

Ahh... suddenly life seems to be "close to normal" again.
