Cafe Deadend- hidden gem in Sheung Wan

It takes us some effort to walk up hill and cross the streets before we get there but it's all worth it once you sit down and take a sip of coffee. 

Cafe Deadend was separated into two area. 


Front part is the bakery; and the back was the cafe, with both indoor and outdoor sitting. It's quite hot in summer but thanks god they offer a HUGE fan for outdoor patrons. 



Modern and minimalist decor, with my one of my favourite building pieces by Michael Wolf; while french window all along the cafe fills the space with abundant natural light. Great dining place but is it a place for reading and chat? Quite noisy and packed during peak hour ( started from 12) and we just failed to focus on our own work and eventually left. 

It was simply glorious goodness on Friday - Poached eggs with prosciutto $95. Home made toast was so good and fresh. Staff freshly knead and bake it at the bakery next to the cafe. All the egg dishes here were amazing.


Softboil egg danish ($95) was a great surprise to us. Visially entertaining, ingredients that fits together like love with marriage. Egg yolk keeps ozzing out of creamy avocado and pastry with the most heavely fluffy texture. Our taste buds were then wowed by lightness of thees sour fresh berries. What a great morning!



Latte ($45) 


Next to Cafe deadend, there are many interesting tiny stores, selling dog toys, leather making workshop, beer stores, football fields and school. Highly recommend to stay around this area and explore more!
