This Basket Café On Jeju Island Is A Chic Container In A Mandarin Orange Paradise

Jeju Island conjures images of cliffs overlooking the ocean and memories of popular Korean dramas like Secret Garden and Boys Over Flowers.

Enjoying the beach isn’t the only thing you can do in this destination, because we’ve recently discovered that it’s a mandarin orange paradise too.

Fruit juice, tea, & coffee

The café offers coffee, tea and fruit juice that is priced around S$5.80 (5,000 won) to S$8.15 (7,000 won).

Their mandarin orange juice is topped with a slice of orange. We bet it’s freshly-picked from the fields, so we’re curious to discover the taste of this healthy drink for S$8.15 (7,000 won).

Meanwhile, coffee aficionados can start the day right with a strawberry latte from S$7 (6,000 won).
