Stove coffee means "kitchen" in Hokkien, and the store often jokingly calls its café "Chinese-style fireworks". Opened in 2017, this café can drink different flavors of single origin coffee, some like wine tasting, some like tea, and its coffee production level is not inferior to Shanghai and Taiwan, where coffee culture is developed.
The owner of the stove café is a husband and wife, the hostess is from Taiwan, and the male owner is from Wuhan, both from an artistic background. The production of coffee is mainly controlled by the male owner. The owner and barista of Kamako has studied coffee roasting and making at coffee institutions in Japan and Korea. The coffee beans in the stove coffee shop are all self-roasted by the boss, and it is one of the few cafes in Chengdu that has a high level of self-roasted coffee beans. The owner of the restaurant likes to discuss coffee with customers, share coffee knowledge, and answer all questions. He has his own unique opinion on coffee, and the explanation is easy to understand.
The hand-poured and iced drip coffee in the stove café are the signatures. If you're new to single-origin coffee, it's hard to disappoint the barista when you tell your taste preferences. In the summer, the restaurant is limited to one or two types of iced drip coffee every day, and the extraction time is about ten hours, and each iced drop is only available in three or four cups per day, which is likely to sell out if it comes late. For the container for coffee, the stove coffee also shows a unique way of interpretation. Considering that the ice droplets ferment over a long period of time to produce a unique flavor, the use of a whiskey glass makes people feel like they are drinking, the use of Japanese porcelain for hand brewing makes people feel like they are tasting tea, and the use of a drink glass for milk coffee is a drink. Buy coffee at the stove coffee, and take out to enjoy a discount of 5 yuan.
The interior of the café is very different from the Scandinavian style that is currently in vogue. The space in the store is very small, only about ten square meters, and most people who go to take pictures will be disappointed. The style of the shop is Chinese, adding Southeast Asian and Japanese elements, and the paintings on the wall and the ornaments and decorations in the store are changed from time to time, all of which are the "treasures" found by the boss. Stove coffee is located in Chengdu IBOX creative incubation base, IBOX was completed in September 2014, is a creative activity carrier and landmark building in Jinjiang District. You can see it out of the Niuwangmiao subway station, with a container-like shape and strong identification.
