Reviews
- malachite_eucalyptusThe light of the white pagoda cafe is hands down one of the best spots in the white pagoda temple area for views. The third floor observation deck gives you a full shot of the temple and it has this really unique zen-in-the-city vibe, super photogenic. Definitely try the corn latte, the corn flavor is so rich and different from anything I've had. The tiramisu comes in a little covered bowl with the white pagoda design on it, looks amazing and tastes just as good. Their simple meals are pretty solid too, the beef and egg rice is super tender and packed with flavor. They stay open pretty late which is great if you want coffee at night. Heads up though, weekends get really packed, kinda cramped, so I'd say go during off-peak hours if you can. Location is perfect, right on Fuchengmennei Street with the white pagoda temple literally across the road, super easy to get to.
