Apres Diem

Apres Diem is a coffee house tucked away in the little known parts of Midtown. Their tag line states 'International coffee house and bistro' and that is exactly what they are. Just like the more famous Cafe Intermezzo, they boast an assorted variety of coffee with accompanying desserts. I'm not a big coffee person and therefore cannot make a recommendation. An overwhelming variety always prompts me to stick to the traditional 'Cafe Au Lait', you can't really go wrong with that! The desserts are all very scrumptious and you have to walk over to the bar to make your selection. Words will never be able to do justice to them.

I like Apres Diem because it has the dark, cosy, romantic feel to it. Candles, curios on the wall, tiny vases, tables wedged close together, the lazy European undertone, the mid-towners and the constant chatter make this place a perfect after-dinner hangout.
