What did we order at Eojil In Wangsimni Station Branch?

What are the space and atmosphere like?

The café has a second floor too, so you can use the space comfortably, which I liked. I also liked the mood, so it seemed fine for visiting with a friend or stopping by on a date.

When visiting a café, the taste of the desserts matters, but I also care about the interior and the seating. If you want to chat with a friend or take your time, you want a place where you can settle in. Sometimes I don't want to gulp down a coffee and leave; I want to eat dessert and slow down, and a place like this is good for that.

If you're looking for a café with a nice atmosphere near Wangsimni Station, maybe keep it in mind. Especially when a sweet dessert calls after a meal, a cup of coffee at a café is a small happiness, isn't it? That day too, I enjoyed good desserts and drinks and took my time.

What is the Choco Milk Ball like?

For chocolate lovers, the Choco Milk Ball is a menu item that catches the eye from the name alone. If you like that sweet chocolate flavor, it's a dessert that goes well with coffee.

At cafés I often pick familiar desserts like cake or cookies, but when there's something a little different, I get curious and want to try it. Ordering several items together also lets you taste different desserts, which I like.

That day I also ordered the matcha Basque cake and the Matilda chocolate cake. Getting chocolate and matcha desserts in one go made picking a variety fun. When you visit a café with a friend, you might each order one, but ordering several and sharing lets you try many flavors.

Who is the matcha Basque cake for?

If you love the distinct flavor of matcha, the matcha Basque cake is hard to walk past. You see matcha on café dessert menus a lot these days.

Basque cheesecake has its own charm, different from ordinary cakes. Add matcha and you get a taste unlike chocolate or fruit cakes, which I liked.

That day I also ordered the Choco Milk Ball and Matilda chocolate cake, so I alternated between sweet chocolate and matcha. Having a variety was more fun than sticking to one flavor. If you usually like matcha lattes or matcha desserts, do check out the matcha Basque cake when you visit.

On a day you want coffee and cake near Wangsimni Station, put this dessert café on your list!

Sharing Matilda chocolate cake and other chocolate desserts

At this café I ordered the Choco Milk Ball and the Matilda chocolate cake together to enjoy chocolate desserts in different ways. Adding the matcha Basque cake made the spread even richer.

Chocolate cake is the one I think of especially on days I crave something sweet. It looks sweet just sitting there, and it goes well with coffee.

When you go to a café with a friend, it's often a shame to pick only one item, so I recommend ordering several desserts and sharing little bites, haha. It was nice to chat over sweet desserts and coffee, and it's a decent place to visit when you want a relaxed time in a café with atmosphere.

Are there an einspänner and ice cream too?

For coffee I had an einspänner alongside, and the ice cream was delicious too! I liked that this café offers ice cream, not just cake and coffee.

An einspänner is coffee topped with cream, and its charm is enjoying the coffee's flavor together with the soft cream. It's also a good pick when you want something a little different from an Americano. When you've ordered several sweet cakes like that day, a coffee alongside makes dessert time feel more complete.

Some days you crave cake, and other days you want cool, sweet ice cream, so having various desserts to choose from is a plus. If you want a coffee and sweet dessert near Wangsimni Station, I'd recommend this Eojil In café.
