KK Eats : Why Cafe is Important? COF Cafe @ Aeropod

Kota Kinabalu, Sabah. 

I will always seek for a drink at cafe when something on my mind / killing time / catching up with friends and maybe clients.

Why Cafe is important?

It's part of current lifestyle, it's a place to de-stress at one sense.

Spotted COF Cafe at Aeropod while my current job with IQI Real Estate located at Aeropod as well. Once in a while, you might see me there. ;)

Trust me, they have delicious Cheese Cake, totally a comfort food to have when we are unhappy or meeting friends.

How about accompanying with tea?

There's no need to explain many with delicious cakes and coffee.
