TW Trip [2013] - Barbie Cafe

Next up is one of the most popular café discussed between

Let me give you a hint.

IT HAS A SUPER PINKISH INTERIOR SETTING!

Did you guess it right?

The Barbie Café was pretty easy to spot.

It was WAY TO PINK to miss it.

What you see once you climbed the Barbie stairs up!

I would say this was one of the worst customer service provided cafe.

When we came up, not even a soul came to open the door/greet us/attend to us.

We had to walk in and ask for a seat.

But anyway, more pictures on the café before I continue ranting!

The café was pretty much "barbie-fied" by the pinkness in it.

But, besides it being really pink and having tons of barbie selfies hung on the wall, 

I really don't feel that it brings out the barbie feel.

Down to the menu.

The menu had quite limited choice of food/desserts. 

But the cute thing about them is that, 

They actually include every dish's calories intake!

P.S. You have to order a min. of NT300/pax worth of food/drink

Which was est SGD12+/pax.

Ok, here's a selfie of me trying hard to camwhore inside the café

without getting my face all red due to the lighting!

AND HERE COMES THE FOOD

Cappuccino

Didn't get to taste this cause my mum ordered it and I don't take coffee.

Macrons

This was pretty sweet, but still barely acceptable. 

The macrons' filling were more of jam/spread instead of cream tho.

I'VE NO IDEA WHAT THIS IS.

It should be some milkshake or something.

BUT THIS TASTED SO HORRIBLE.

It was the WORST thing I had in my 8D7N Taiwan Trip.

I had a sip and I nearly puked, it was crazily sweetened and it tasted like 

x89127981278947 TONS sugar + milk/water.

Classic Barbie Toast

This was pretty alright, considerably one of the better one of all in this café.

But it was filled with so much icing cream, it spoilt the taste of it.

Besides that, it's just typical ice cream with some fruits and cheap made 

chocolates with designs on a "Barbie logo" toasted toast.

The serving for this was pretty big tho.

Some other cakes they have!

And this cute little "barbie handbag" couch near the entrance.

So this pretty much sum up my visit for the Barbie Café.

As you have read, you could tell I'm least satisfied with this café.

It's definitely a place I wouldn't spare a second visit for.

It was a good experience of the atmosphere, but for everything else, no.

Stay tuned to more of my Taipei Café Tour updates!!

AND GOOD NEWS, I'll be flying back in 3 weeks time!
SUPER HAPPY AND EXCITEDDDDDD.

Till then, Stay Hungry :)
