Taiwan Instagrammable Food: Cheevit Cheeva Taipei
I’m gonna start today’s post randomly. I mistook someone in
the pantry for my own colleague. In my defense, there are a lot of baldy slim
Asian guy out there and all of them seem to be in dire need of caffeine. But it’s
probably time for me to buy myself a good pair of glasses. Hmm, but if I do
that, I have to live frugally in terms of food expense. Aw, shucks!
Anyway, since reality is kinda brutal, let’s check out
another instagrammable café in Taiwan, Cheevit Cheeva. I found out online that
this café is actually originated from Thailand. The original café is located on
the banks of Kok river in Chiang Rai, northern Thailand. Chiang Rai, hmm, that
sounds like Chiang Mai and Chiang Mai kinda annoyed me although it’s actually
not the area’s fault. My ex-crush used to flirt with me and then decided to get
hitched together with a Chiang Mai girl who happened to be his Airbnb’s host.
What the heck is this sorcery. Oh well, it’s probably love. Or black magic. I
don’t wanna know.
Hmm, it seems today I easily digress from one topic to
another. Oh well, since Chiang Mai is definitely off my bucket list, it’s a great
news that there is Cheevit Cheeva café located in Taipei. The café focuses on
beautiful snow ice flake (or also known as bingsut in Korea), cakes and many
pretty drinks. It seems that it’s very well known for its Blueberry thai milk
tea bingsut as there are many Insta user posting the dessert. Cheevit Cheeva
also seems to offer a variety of unordinary bingsut. For instance, there is one
which seem to be served with a huge amount of whipped cream on top plus pretty
pearls which I often see used for boba. Online users in Tripadvisor raved about
Cheevit Cheeva’s snow ice flake which they claim to be incredibly soft and melt
in their mouth perfectly. It does not seem to be as sweet as it looks which is
a good thing. Oh gosh, now I feel like popping ice flake into my mouth but the
only thing I have in the fridge right now is ice cubes. Oh wait, I don’t think
office fridge have ice cubes in the first place. Sadz.
If you prefer to have a drink instead, Cheevit Cheeva have a
variety of fruit soda and also yoghurt based drink. @hisonja2578 uploaded a
picture of shibuya toast completed with a scoop of ice cream on top so I figure
that Cheevit Cheeva has shibuya toast as well. Online review mentions that the
toast is very soft and have croissant-like texture. That must go so well with
the ice cream. Yumz.
Cheevit Cheeva café is located within walking distance from
Sun Yat-Sen Memorial Hall MRT station so do give them a visit if you are
nearby. The café looks so pretty and cozy and it definitely makes the list to
one of Taiwan instagrammable food. It opens daily from 10AM to 11PM. Alternatively, other than Taipei, you will only be able to
visit the café in Bangkok and oh well, Chiang Rai.
