🌱| Green Forget-Me-Not - Wild Man's Cottage | 🌱
When you open the yellow cypress wood door, you're greeted by objects rich in cultural and historical flavor: a bar counter made from beams and pillars, a wooden window frame from an old clinic, planks salvaged from a former elementary school, a large Chinese medicine cabinet from an old apothecary shop—all repurposing precious wood left over from demolished buildings to craft a unique atmosphere.
"Wild Man's Cottage" offers freshly brewed coffee ☕️, Taiwanese tea 🍵, and handmade desserts 🥮.
The shop collaborates with three coffee roasters to customize coffee based on customers' preferences. There’s a friendly cat 🐱 who greets visitors enthusiastically as they enter, and the shop managers, Yi-Jin and Xiao-Hong, are warm and humble, eager to share stories of life and the arts. If you’re lucky enough to visit, you can chat with them about life while enjoying your coffee. 😉
