Tainan's '仁人 ranren' — Two cups of tea and two-inch cakes, an afternoon in an alley 🍰🫖

#SeptemberTravelSupport At the end of an alley in Tainan's East District, past a small sign, you'll find a dessert cafe with wood tones and retro props. The signature item here is the "two-inch" cake. The perfect size for one person, it's perfect for sharing and changing up the flavors. The flavors change frequently, focusing on seasonal fruits, black tea, and oolong tea. The clean presentation of the plates makes for beautiful photos. 📸
The drink menu offers a wide selection of coffee, tea, and milk-based options, with many combinations that don't overpower the sweetness of the cakes. For a sweet treat, try a hearty treat like Basque cheese, while for a lighter day, try a tart with a hint of acidity. Seating is divided into a bar, tables, and a small outdoor area. The outside is perfect for sunny days, and the inside corner is perfect for conversation. 🌿
Due to its popularity, there's often a wait or sellout on weekends. Visit shortly after opening or call to make a same-day pickup reservation to expand your options. The quiet atmosphere and comfortable atmosphere make "two slices of cake and two cups of tea" a perfect afternoon filler. This is Tainan's trustworthy sweetness, perfect for creating a "dessert → cafe tour → dinner" rhythm when combined with a stroll through the alleys. ✨
