## A Yeoksam Station café recommended by a friend: Mini Male Coffee Roaster Yeoksam Branch

A friend who works in Yeoksam told me there was a good café near Yeoksam Station and insisted we go, so here we are. It's been a while since I've been in Yeoksam! I came on purpose to see my friend. It was hot and I was craving a cup of cold, tasty coffee, so we headed to a café~!!!

If you're going to have a coffee anyway, it's nicer somewhere with good vibes and good coffee, right? So I made the trip on purpose. I tagged along with my friend, and it's a café with real character!! ★Mini Male Coffee Roaster Yeoksam Branch★

## Mini Male's New York levain-style cookies can sell out in the afternoon

You can buy beans here by variety, and the New York levain-style cookies are famous, so I really wanted to try them~ And there's not just one kind of cookie, there are lots of kinds♥

Maybe because we came in the afternoon, some cookies were already sold out!! It must really be a cookie hotspot~ Every customer who came in was buying cookies or eating them, and we hurried to pick ours in case they sold out too, haha. At a glance the cookies are huge and thick, packed with ingredients, and they look so good! I could already imagine them melting in my mouth with a coffee.
