Cosy Cafés

I imagine this is what it feels like to lie back in a box of chocolates. The only reality check comes when you try to eat the sofas.

Talking of sofas, the best are the giant caramel-coloured leather ones.

It has been designed with precision and is remarkably swish; there are (for example) plasma screens, not often seen in coffee houses. So it is not (I presume) the brainchild of an independent café owner, but it doesn't lack character. It's still a great place to sip a coffee in peace, harmony, and a temperate climate (there is air conditioning).

With such a fantastic city just outside the large glass windows, what more could you want?
