Kashi Art Cafe...

Kashi Art Cafe~ A quaint cafe' that houses an art gallery showcasing the finest works by contemporary artists, a relaxed space where artists, enthusiasts and tourists like us can meet, hang out and enjoy their delicious homemade cakes and french press coffee.
At Kashi Art Cafe, they say 'no to plastics' and serve mineral water in sterilized glass bottles.
What a great idea and love that bottle!(hey but you can't take the bottle, only for drinking;-)
It was super hot in the afternoon and their 'Iced Tea' was a such a great thirst quencher. While you are there also try their refreshing Lemonade with ayurvedic herb.
Ok. Ok. Chai lovers do forgive me;-) On our second visit to the cafe, I was very intrigued by the Bodum French Press coffee, I just needed to try it out.
Sitting pretty is a large slice of Chocolate Cake with a generous helping of Chocolate Sauce.

So next time you are in Fort Cochin, you know where to head for a great glass of Iced tea or a slice of their homemade Date & Walnut cake:-)
Enjoy!

Loved that 1st photograph of those beautiful benches. And thanx for letting me know, the next time I go to Kochi, i must explore this area and this cafe especially. Its just that my trips to kerala are trips home & then travel and exploring somehow just doesn't happen. But maybe that will change :)

Kashi was quite a popular hang out for the people at my college. Its quaint, quiet and cheap! We ve spent hours there chatting, playing games, and even studying at times. No one would ever bother us either. And it was always cold coffee with lots of sugar syrup and milk and chocolate cake with chocolate sauce, always..Glad that you featured Kashi on your lovely blog. I believe there is also a Kashi art residence for artists.
