If you're tired of grand, crowded cafes and want a quiet, homey, hidden-gem style spot, we recommend this place near Nang Linchi, at the Chan Place project. What stands out is that they use top-quality ingredients and go all out with them — the pastry chef trained at Le Cordon Bleu. The madeleines are fragrant with butter and milk, and the red velvet and Oreo cookies are delicious. The scones come in both cream butter and Earl Grey.

The Basque cheesecake is outstanding, top-tier, with no eggy smell at all — a clear jelly layer on top over a rich, cheesy cake underneath. Drinks include illy coffee, cocoa, and French soda (soda mixed with syrup). Open 9 AM-5 PM every day except Wednesday, with parking available.
