A Hot Cup of Hoshino Coffee
Opening the door to this cafe was like opening the wardrobe in “The Chronicles of Narnia”. It led us to a different world altogether – one that is charming, magical and redolent with the aroma of roasted coffee beans.

The Feel Green Factor
As I sat there it seemed the plants had grown and is holding me in an embrace. It is an embrace that makes me feel green. Nowadays I tell others that I need to feel green and step out to sit amidst the plants.
