每到週末，沙田都逼滿了人，要選擇在沙田等一個人，超過一小時，確實很辛苦！突然靈機一觸，想起此地，提供一個舒適地方休息！一杯Honey with Lemon, 暖入心～蜜糖味道天然，濃郁獨特香味混合清新檸檬香，非常窩心  值得一讚！員工相當親切，服務態度好！

我是一個既喜歡看書亦很喜歡飲咖啡的人。

在數個月前，偶爾在商務印書館中發現新開了一間咖啡室，於是立即去試試。

第一次試了一杯手沖咖啡，首先發現原來店主用的每一件器皿，濾紙都經過精心挑選。

濾紙是一對正在接吻的白鴿，隨著咖啡的滲透，一對白鴿一起漸變為咖啡色，簡直是賞心悅目。

在細心觀賞白鴿時，咖啡的香氣漸漸漓漫著我的鼻腔。

這視覺和嗅覺的享受，令身為城市人步伐急促的我，心境平靜了下來，細心欣賞著熱度剛剛好的咖啡。

當第一小口咖啡流進舌頭上，咖啡的味道就在我的體內散發，攻上鼻腔，滲入每一條牙縫，再入心入肺。

那種感覺是，想將咖啡在口腔內多逗留片刻，不想將咖啡吞下去。

隨著時間流逝，咖啡的溫度漸漸下降，那種咖啡味道的細緻變化，難以用筆墨來形容。

臨走時店主來詢問了一些這杯咖啡的意見。

我發現店主很親切誠懇，淺談了幾句之後，就決定要再試試這家小店的其他品種的咖啡。

之後的幾次，我每次試飲一種咖啡，原來每一款咖啡，都帶給我太多驚喜，太多不能盡錄。

我只知道，飲過這麼優質的咖啡以後，再不會買太平洋或者星仔之類的連鎖店，因為質數實在差太遠了。

飲多了這家咖啡，自然成為了熟客，以後每飲多一杯咖啡，還多了一份人情味。

早前逛誠品, 見店內有Tea House, 但高貴得令我卻步!今天來到沙田新城市廣場的商務，見店內竟然有coffee coner實是一大驚喜！ 這個角落看似跟書館連城一體，但又覺是自城一角！八卦一問原來這不是商務經營的，是租出來的地方！原來兩位店主也是愛咖啡之人，開咖啡小店也是多年夢想，剛好天時地利人和就順利旦生了這小店！店內除了咖啡也有一些三文治是即叫即做的，蛋糕甜品連雪糕也有供應！朋友要了Mocha + 白毛豬三文治主要是醫肚的！我想試Hand drip這次店主用上金牌萬特靈咖啡，出來的效果是很夠熱、入口有回甘、當溫度降了一點時酸未減退了變化很特別！，與那個不太甜的甘荀蛋糕很配合。

我很少這樣細味咖啡，是因為店主們很想聽多些意見及希望改善品質！因那個時後沒不忙，店主特別調製了一杯Latte給我們分享，其實我一向對Latte沒有太大興趣，但朋友喝了一口後說很濃的咖啡味與一般的不同！我呷了一口、果然！咖啡沒有被濃濃的奶味掩蓋，合我口味！你最愛的咖啡館在哪裡呢？可閱讀的、可沉思的、可歡笑的、可慶祝的、可以單純享受一杯美味咖啡的...來看看書店咖啡館吧。

I have never been in love in reading. When I was in my childhood, my parents used to bring me to libraries, hoping that I would pick up a nice tale and start to develop a healthy, nerdy lifestyle. But I was really not a person who is ever into literature. When my classmates were burying their heads into Harry Potter in primary school or Twilight in secondary school, I was always bouncing around with my paint brushes at the background.Wordy poetries or heartstirring fictions were never my favourite. For me, reading was also perceived as a leisure time killer for genius. I would not mind sitting in front of the telly 24/7 though.But I suppose as time goes on, all of a sudden I want a twist in my life.I want to be a nerd.I want to make a difference.I want some sparks, some changes in my life.I want to sharpen my language skills.I want to get better at things.I want to be mature and start doing something for myself. And so this comes to a day where I walk myself into Economic Press and grab myself a copy of One Day. I just wanted read something good, as it would diminish my motivation if it is deadly boring or too much sobbing.I must say it is such a clever idea to open a cafe in the middle of a book store. As I was standing still, examining whether it is really the right book for me, after flicking through few pages, I really craved for some caffeine and perhaps something to nibble too.  The only pity was that all 20 seats were occupied at this little corner of the store. You could be spending tremendous time waiting to be seated on weekends since everybody seated are probably bookworm like yourself, which surely no one would be willing to sacrifice their tensional moments for your likings.When I finally got seated, I treated myself a Caffe Latte $35 (again) as I didnt want to overdo the caffeine on a Sunday afternoon. Not getting enough sleep for work on a Monday morning is truly a tragedy, which is frankly known as public knowledge. Note that there is a minimum charge of $35. Other than coffees, slices of cheesecakes, muffins and HaagenDazs icecream that came in 6 flavours were also served at this cafeteria.To be honest, the Caffe Latte here is rather disappointing.To a frothobsessed caffeine lover like me, the froth in this cup is slightly flabby that the froth turns into bubbles in the time for a few snapshots. In fact it was not particular stiff to start with neither when it first arrived.  It has a slight bitterness in its aftertaste and for a latte, the milky soothing sensation that I missed from Caffe Habitu was lacking. The Walnut Cookie appeared quite pale which I have had a slight hesitation when I first saw it. To my surprise, it was crunchy and has a rich, nutty flavour. It was neither buttery nor greasy in texture. Instead it was light and nothing overwhelming. It was perfect as a little snacks with my latte and books.I have heard that someone next to me got Pistachio cookie. Hmmmm I wonder if they do takeouts...For a latte priced $35 was pretty expensive if you think about how petite it is as well as its quality. However I must say it is really a pleasant experience to be breathing in the sweet aroma of caffeine while reading a wonderful plot. Afterall, if I take into account of the convenience I enjoy with my coffee and the novel, the price was indeed of great value for a such a peaceful yet relaxing hour. I truly enjoyed that moment of tranquility with no silly whatsapp ringtone going off, interupting the silence. At the end of the day, I got myself my first ever book. MY FIRST EVER BOOK! (other than textbooks of course) I felt insane when I thought about buying it but the aftersale feeling was incredible. Not only I love the story, the writting style, but I realised that, if I can learn all the vocabularies and sentence structures in thess hundreds pages, I am going to gain much more that what I paid for, for which what I gain will stay with me forever unlike clothes and assessories. So yes. I want some changes. I want to do something for myself.I want a twist in my life.

原有之商務印書局原來已搬到新城市廣場3期玩具反豆城側‧‧‧比從前細小一節的商務平日一樣人山人海，Bookaffe 就是店內的角位四、五張小枱加上數張迷你梳花，便成了一個書局內靜靜的休息空間可能是新開張，店內只提供咖啡及三文治、而蛋糕、鬆餅就未為所見全店只用上兩位成熟女士作主場，較一般咖啡室略為小見等約十分鐘後揀上之Cappuccino$35.終告上枱牛奶打至不十分綿密，氣孔較多、當然相對下順滑度也為之減弱咖啡濃而不太苦澀，呷一口的熱度不算很高、咖啡香味和奶尚算匹配只是嘴唇沒有濃厚之質感曲奇片聽聞是自家製作，既鬆化而不太甜配上咖啡蠻不錯在書局內加插着咖啡店其實亦不常是壞事，至少在打書釘而肚餓之時也可就近歇歇腳。
