Often Here

Nestled on Songjiang Road near the Xingtian Temple metro station, "Often Here" is a quaint cafe in Taipei that has captured the attention of dedicated patrons for its exceptional cakes. Although it’s not extensively listed in popular restaurant directories, it does appear on Tripadvisor with minimal details. The cafe has an understated exterior that, at times, could easily be mistaken for a private residence.

Customers have enthusiastically mentioned the high quality of the cakes, despite seating being limited and operating hours not clearly defined. The cafe's cakes, including a notably recommended butter pound cake, are often highlighted for their rich flavors paired perfectly with a variety of tea options. With daily changing handwritten menus, each visit offers a new experience for visitors willing to take a chance.

The establishment's absence from more robust dining guides suggests there may be delightfully undiscovered elements for those who stumble upon it. However, a lack of recent reviews or official information also means cautious exploration for potential diners. For those curious, it's a simple, nostalgic reprieve just minutes from Xingtian Temple.
