Lilian London Cafe, experience a London-style cafe

Another cafe that must be wowed loudly, hahaha, because it’s one of the cafe that I want to review. I can’t believe there is such a cute cafe in Thailand. Here they opened the shop on February 14, 2021.

Lilian London Café I have to say that cafe well known to SWU students. The customers who come to this place include students, general workers and also foreigners of various nationalities who come to use the service. Such a cute cafe today. Located in heart of Asoke Soi Sukhumvit 23.

Today we come to the cafe and have the opportunity to meet the owner of the shop, who is half Thai-German. A beautiful, kind and cute lady, like Ms.Sothara Lilian Oberhoff (Ellie-แอลลี่).

This cafe was born out of the intention of Ms.Ellie to open his own cafe. By wanting to use the concept of the shop name that is English and also indicates the identity of the name itself, which means “lily flower”, and instead of the meaning of the word purity, that’s the word “Lilian” that is the middle name. And another person who is jointly owned is Mr. Thanaesuan Edward Ash(Leon-Leon), who is half Thai, Australian and British.

We really liked the atmosphere of Lilian London Café, it felt like I was literally enchanted into London. Fall in love so badly.

Products in the shop here Usually they have Croissants and Blueberry Danish. The drink focuses on English tea which is 80% imported tea and some are not available in Thailand but it is a product that is popular abroad. For example, cold brew tea suitable for brewing as iced tea only. But here they also have other drink menus, such as Iced Chocolate, Caffè Macchiato, Italian Soda.

In addition, the coffee at the shop uses the brand Aroma, specially selected from the fertile farmland from Chiang Mai. It is a medium roast and dark roast. The price of coffee is 50-60 Baht, both hot and cold. For tea products if anyone is interested in buying tea to take home. Please ask the shop the more details.

Many people wonder what Cold Brew Tea is. Tea is brewed by steeping tea leaves in the refrigerator for at least 6-8 hours, using approximately 5-7 teaspoons of tea and the highlight of this tea brewing is

• * Less caffeine in tea ,there is also a reduction in bitterness and astringency in some teas. But if the subject of sweetness is more along with it.
• * When brewing hot, we will get a different flavor of tea from the smell that we smell before brewing. But if we brew like this (hot), the taste of the tea is the same as the smell in the jar.
• * In addition, if brewed with green tea, it contains EGC, which is only available in cold brew green tea. This substance increases the immune system of the body by focusing on white blood cells as well. It is the type that serves to catch and eat foreign things that come into the body such as germs.

Let’s see what we ordered today….

(Blueburry Cheesecake – Price 125 Baht) Soft cheesecake with sweet and sour blueberry flavor. Here they use firm blueberries both fresh and new And the taste of the cakes here are not very sweet, so get a cup of hot tea is not bad. But we wanted to try iced tea. This one depends on the style or preference of each person.

(Basque Burnt Cheesecake – 90 Baht) Burnt Cheesecake This contrasts with the soft flavor with dark caramelized sugar on top of the cake with a mouth full of cream cheese. It is delicious paired with fresh fruits such as raspberries and blueberries on top of the cake.
