Yue Shi Shi Dan / 悦舍食单

Yue Shi is an innovative Chinese dessert restaurant. It is separated from the street by bamboo growing all around the perimeter. The wood structure and decor create a Zen ambience, but the desserts here are like nothing you've ever seen. Oolong Tea Ice cream with a hint of ginger sugar, omelette with cream, mango and caramel lotus root — the recipes are beyond imagination. For the seasonal menu, reservation is obligatory.

UNiUNi

UNiUNi is a café with a modern minimalist decor. Marble tables, metal chairs, cold lighting and a glass wall are all elements that contribute to the contrast between the café itself and the greenery that surrounds it. Their speciality is Nitrogen Cold Brew. The steeping procedure lasts 12 hours wherein nitrogen is bumped into the coffee before it is served, which keeps it cold and creates an abundant foam, which makes the drink look whimsically steamy.

FishTank / 鱼缸咖啡

For a truly unique café experience in Nanjing, head to Fishtank, a hidden gem tucked away inside a sports arena. Previously a storage room, this unconventional café is renowned for its coffee-making classes and diverse activities. Be sure to try their Savage Ice Cream (暴虐冰淇淋), a delightful fusion of their in-house roasted espresso and ice cream.

Moke Coffee / 墨客咖啡

Moke is red, a vivid Chinese red, the kind of red that would jump right at you upon entering the café. The barista gives customers the option to choose one coffee bean out of dozens to make that one cup of coffee that suits each individual client. The signature coffee is Mo White (墨客咖啡), decaf, which takes all the bitterness out (not at the expense of flavour).
