Rose milk tea and white peach tiramisu at Deokmi Atelier, Busan

I visited Deokmi Atelier Gwang-an Branch, a cozy spot tucked into a Gwangalli alley from Deokmi, the sentimental café brand from Gijang, Busan.

It's tucked one step away from the bustling noise of the beach, in a quiet residential alley.

Away from the bustle of the beach, it's quiet and charming, true to its name — atelier means studio.

Alley café with a European home vibe

It's optimized for quietly enjoying leisure time in an atmosphere like a European home.

The exterior stands out with its vintage yet stylish design, and opening the door reveals tidy wood-toned interiors and warm lighting welcoming you.

Vintage furniture blends with calm lighting to give the warmth of being invited into a small European studio or a cute living room.

One step away from the beach's bustle, it's like an oasis where you can enjoy handmade desserts while a cute cat wanders leisurely in the warm sunlight!

It's a space with small healing moments — a cozy interior under warm sunlight and an adorable cat.

There are warm knee blankets available too, and it's full of atelier vibes, true to the shop's name!

The signature rose milk tea: Rose thé noir

🌹 Rose thé noir (signature rose milk tea): real rose petals piled generously atop soft, cloudy milk foam. A gorgeous visual that captures your heart the moment you see it.

The rich, nutty black tea base of Assam CTC carries a subtly spreading rose aroma that's just artful.

As the soft rose cream on top touched my lips, I felt a distinctly luxurious sweetness from the very first sip.

It gives off a subtle floral scent while offering a pleasant sweetness at the same time.

What does the white peach tiramisu taste like?

🍑 White peach tiramisu, ₩12,000. Half a whole fresh peach sits inside a clear container. Just looking at it, you feel the abundance and freshness first. A chocolate pick and herb leaf accent add a cute touch too, haha 😆

Juicy, refreshing fresh peach on top combines with rich, dense pink peach, Greek yogurt, and handmade tiramisu cream underneath. There's a generous layer of peach compote at the bottom.

Unlike a typical espresso tiramisu, there's no heaviness at all — the natural sweetness and softness of the fruit just melt in your mouth!

Honey bread (handmade French toast)

🍞 Honey bread (handmade French toast): thick bread generously topped with cloud-like handmade whipped cream.

Served neatly with cinnamon powder and sweet maple syrup pooled underneath.

The golden-brown surface of the bread contrasts nicely with the soft texture inside.

The warm bread, soaked in egg batter and butter aroma, pairs really well with the cool, cold cream.

And the fragrant cinnamon flavor on top completes a deep flavor of sweet-and-salty and nuttiness.

The cat sunbathing loaf-style in the yard

Another charm of Deokmi Atelier! In the shop's yard or café space, you can meet a cat leisurely loafing or basking in the sun. It's gentle and cute, and just watching it seems to melt away all your travel fatigue. 🐱

It doesn't come close to people and is very calm!! Total healing thanks to the kitty 💗😍

A place where you can enjoy the sentiment of a quiet alley and thoughtfully made desserts instead of an ocean view! It's Gwangalli's hidden hideout.

If you want to spend a cozy time in Gwangalli with delicious brunch and a cat, I recommend Deokmi Atelier!
