Avery's °ä²¹´Úé Tour
If you're like me, the Environment Lounge is too loud, and the library is too quiet to get work done. But cafés have the perfect vibe for checking things off the to-do list. Even better if they have a good matcha latte!
If you've been meaning to do a café tour of your own, I spend at least one day a week in a KW café, and these are my thoughts. (Note: they all have free Wi-Fi, and I am a generous rater)

No matcha, but a great iced chai! They have a separate area for studying and regular café. |

Next on my list: Lucero Canteen, rumoured to have the best matcha latte in KW. Note that they have a "no laptop" policy.
