What I ordered this time was the ricotta cheese sandwich and a mocha americano. I paired the light but filling sandwich with the sweet mocha americano and treated it like a simple meal.

Ricotta cheese sandwich and mocha americano: how were they?

First, the ricotta cheese sandwich was an easy, light bite to have with coffee, so I reached for it without hesitation. Having a sandwich option when you want to handle a simple meal at a café turned out to be more convenient than I expected. It especially seemed useful when you don't have time to go to a separate restaurant in the middle of a busy schedule.

The mocha americano I ordered alongside it had the bitterness of coffee with a sweet touch added, and it paired well with the sandwich. Personally, it suited me well for when I want a subtly sweet taste while drinking coffee, rather than a heavier dessert drink.

Above all, being able to sit back comfortably in the store and enjoy the drink and meal was great.
