Made a trip down to Baristart Coffee for an early dinner, and I really love the vibes of this cafe! Itโ€™s centrally located, yet the lighting and ambience is really on point ๐Ÿ‘Œ๐Ÿผ Baristart prides themselves on using Hokkaido BIEI Jersey Milk, which is only produced by about 1% of cows in Japan!

We tried the ๐Ž๐›๐ข๐ก๐ข๐ซ๐จ ๐๐ฎ๐ญ๐š๐๐จ๐ง (๐’๐†๐ƒ$๐Ÿ๐Ÿ–.๐Ÿ–๐ŸŽ+) as well as the ๐‡๐จ๐ค๐ค๐š๐ข๐๐จ ๐‚๐š๐ซ๐›๐จ๐ง๐š๐ซ๐š (๐’๐†๐ƒ$๐Ÿ๐Ÿ•.๐Ÿ–๐ŸŽ+). Safe to say, the Butadon was my favourite - would rate it a 7/10! Just LOOK at those beautifully placed slices of pork ๐Ÿคค The generous amounts of meat, coupled with the savoury & sweet Teriyaki seasoning really was to my liking. However, I did find some slices of pork to be slightly too tough - so just something to take note.

On the other hand, the Hokkaido Carbonara was kinda an overhype.. โ˜น๏ธ thought it wouldโ€™ve been really cool to try a carbonara pasta cooked with Hokkaido milk + its one of their featured dishes, but heh honestly think this dish left much to be desired... think it does have quite some potential though so hm Iโ€™ll say overall like 5/10.

And to end off our meal, we had the super cute ๐’๐ก๐ข๐ซ๐จ ๐Š๐ฎ๐ฆ๐š (๐’๐†๐ƒ$๐Ÿ—.๐Ÿ–๐ŸŽ+ ๐Ÿ๐จ๐ซ ๐Ž๐ซ๐ข๐ ๐ข๐ง๐š๐ฅ - ๐ฐ๐ข๐ญ๐ก ๐‡๐จ๐ค๐ค๐š๐ข๐๐จ ๐๐ˆ๐„๐ˆ ๐‰๐ž๐ซ๐ฌ๐ž๐ฒ ๐Œ๐ข๐ฅ๐ค)! ๐Ÿป๐Ÿจ Except uhm the one we got was kinda disfigured and looks like its v sad even though we kinda ordered it for the gram ๐Ÿคฆ๐Ÿปโ€โ™€๏ธ... HAHAHA but it does taste pretty good!! Basically like a typical bingsu, but hm nothing too unique about it other than how cute it looks. Though I must give credit for the super yumz Hokkaido Milk drizzle so 6.5-7/10 (?)

Overall, I may return for the butadon, but not really sure if itโ€™s worth the trip down. But maybe Iโ€™ll try it again one day if Iโ€™m in the area - or if Iโ€™m looking for a place with nice ambience and coffee โ˜บ๏ธ
