Chocolate Chai Latte? YES PLEASE!

So I would love to be above advertisements... I really would.  Sometimes I think that I am and when it comes to certain things I really am.  But then there are others things that well, not so much... :-/

I have walked past a sign on the sidewalk at the market outside of the main gate several times.  It is advertising for various drinks including a chocolate chai latte which sounded amazing to me from the first time I read it.  The café is super cute looking from the outside and looks so cozy and quaint.  Well, I could pass the sign no longer without partaking in the yummy sounding drink featured on that sign.  I am a fan of chai tea and I also like chocolate so resisting the combination much longer wasn't going to happen.  Additionally, it was cold outside and I had been walking out in that cold for like 15 or so minutes so I really felt justified in purchasing it for myself, lol.

I'm sure this drink is everywhere, I just have not had it before so I went for it, without regret!  It was so perfectly yummy and since I stayed in the café it came in a glass mug.  I sat beside a little fake Christmas tree and just observed my American looking surroundings.  When I got into the café I was alone but then several people came in behind me so I had to wait a bit for my drink as there was only one barista in there at the time.  It was worth the wait :-)

She served me my perfect chocolate chai latte on a little serving tray with a little packaged cookie cracker (also yummy).  The ambiance of the café was chill (until people came in of course).  I like the industrial style of interior design and this had that look going on plus was a small place.  They had fleece blankets with plaid type designs to go along with the Winter season.  I had wireless internet too so I was able to check emails and chillax.  Then people came in so the vibe changed with hearing others speaking Korean to one another.

I liked it there and the drink was the price of any Starbucks grande sized drink so not cheap but not astronomical either.  I wouldn't go there often because "ain't nobody got time for that" but it would be worth going to once a week just to get off base and be able to hang out for a bit.





Love,
Camille
