Weekday afternoon atmosphere at Tteum Café Suwon Station

The inside of Tteum Café by Oneplay Suwon Station feels relaxed. Maybe because I came on a weekday, the roomy seats looked even more comfortable.

What does Rich Chamomile tea taste like?

The Rich Chamomile tea at Tteum Café Suwon Station has a deep, full chamomile aroma with a gentle sweetness, and it tasted like Spanish chrysanthemum honey tea. There were so many coffees I wanted to drink, but since I came in the afternoon, I ordered a tea with a really pretty color instead.

It's as rich in aroma as the name Rich Chamomile suggests, and the pleasant sweetness makes every gentle sip feel healing. If you want to unwind at Tteum Café, Rich Chamomile is a good pick.

Does the dark chocolate cake go well with chamomile tea?

The dark chocolate cake (₩9,200) at Tteum Café Suwon Station was a bit disappointing with Rich Chamomile tea, more than I expected. The chamomile's sweetness was strong and got in the way of the deep chocolate flavor.

I picked dark chocolate as the day's dessert because I thought it would go well with Rich Chamomile tea. Made with French Valrhona chocolate, I think the dark chocolate cake would show off its rich chocolate flavor better with an Americano.

If you're looking for a quiet, atmospheric café near Suwon Station, Tteum Café by Oneplay Suwon Station is worth a visit for its hand-drip coffee made with special beans and its tasty homemade cakes.
