How do the signature Einspänner and Americano taste?

Okay, now the really important part: the drinks. I ordered Eojil In's signature Einspänner (coffee topped with cream) and an Americano.

The Einspänner's cream wasn't overly sweet and was perfectly balanced with the coffee. It wasn't one of those common drinks that just pile on whipped cream. The Americano leans toward a heavy body rather than acidity, so it's great alongside desserts. If you're planning something sweet, definitely add an Americano.

Recommended dessert combo: Matilda chocolate cake, churros financier and Americano

Now the desserts we ordered with them. The grand star: the Matilda chocolate cake.

The Matilda chocolate cake spreads deep chocolate heavily in your mouth, yet it isn't greasy. If you're looking for cake at a Wangsimni café, you absolutely have to try this.

Churros financier, cake and an Americano. This combo is today's top recommended set. My husband gobbled up the financier, so I have no photo of it ^^;;
