1. Legendary avotoast and Matcha Latte at Cafefin

One of the most popular and most praised places for brunch, coffee, dessert but also diner is definitely Cafefin. The fusion of Asian cuisine and bohemian interior scored, thumbs up!

Great coffee and varied offer of food guaranteed. If you taste their avotoast, I am sure you’ll agree with me that it is legendary. But for those who have sweet tooth, they added also a sweet option: toast with homemade yogurt, figs, maracuya, with splash of honey and topped with nuts. Either way, you’ll not be disappointed.
