First as soon as you go through the door you can tell this is a place that cares about your experience. Brightly lit and beautifully decorated, everyone that was there seemed very relaxed as if they had checked their stress at the door, event though some seemed to be working. After being thoroughly tempted by the large selection of treats, my wife locked in on her pistachio selections which she loved. The cheesecake was sweet and creamy and the late was just the right amount of sweet with a silky texture. I asked for the Turkish experience, i may have sounded a bit ignorant, but they kindly humored me. As you can tell by the pictures I fell in love with the presentation, the tray, the cup the details all of it. Then came the tasting. The warm bitterness of the hits first with the warm, perfect for a black coffee lover like me, then as you breathe out you feel the aromatic flavor of the cardamom. It may take a couple of sips to appreciate it but it is fantastic. The fruit tart had a very pleasing texture, crunchy crust and moist creamy tart top. great compliment to the coffee. It is a unique experience that we will definitely revisit.

Also, it's a nice place to meet someone or get a little work done in a quiet and clean environment. That said, I'd probably skip the bakery items. I've tried a few over time and they've either been stale or overcooked, which is disappointing given how good the drinks are. Come for the coffee, but maybe grab your pastry somewhere else.

And what caught my eye when doomscrolling through instagram and skimming through my apps for recommended food places were their sandwiches and pastries. They are as beautiful in person as they are in the pictures. One thing I can't infer from a picture very well is the size. And let me tell you, that sandwich was pretty massive. It's larger than some of the burgers I've been trying out lately in the area, so you get every bang out of your buck. I got the Beef Bugolgi Shokupan Sandwich, which was bursting with a generous serving of beef and a really large, soft, fluffy scrambled egg, all packed between 2 super thick and pillowy buttery toasted bread. I also got the Pork Belly Bao, which I honestly like better than the sandwich. The bao buns are super fluffy, and the pork belly slices are perfectly thick sliced and flavorful. It's a great menu item to get if you want to share with another person since it comes with 2 servings per order. For dessert, I struggled a bit to pick and choose, haha. Of course I couldn't just pick one, but I am a little proud of myself for only selecting 2 instead of a whole entire box. From the pastry case, I picked the custard donut, which was soft, chewy, and stuffed to bursting with a pudding-like filling. And from the cake case, I got the Raspberry mousse. I couldn't resist that glass-like ruby red skin. But unfortunately, it was too tart for my taste. There's a lot on the menu that I can't try in just one visit, so I'm definitely bound to come back again.

I was in the area visiting family and wanted to grab some coffee before the road trip home to South Florida. A local business is better than a Starbucks. Bonus is it's my favorite bakery in Orlando so I'm here for it. This Light on the Sugar is located next to the Regal Cinemas in Waterford Lakes. Squished between Charley's Philly Cheesesteaks and Zen Dumplings. What I dislike about this location is the wooden gazebo they built directly in front of these stores. It totally hides the name of the stores and it's not appealing. This made it hard to find too. They should honestly get rid of the gazebos, these poor stores may be losing potential business because people can't locate it. This bakery is the smallest one compared to the original two locations I've been to. It's ok because they still sell most of the same items, just less of a selection due to limited space. They offer the popular cream puffs, pastries, tarts, merch and drinks. On this particular day, I only got the Pistachio Latte and an Americano. My husband likes a good simple coffee with no bells and whistles. The other stuff is too much for him. Ha. I really debated getting pastries for the road but I was just at the Winter Park location yesterday and got an assortment so I was good on pastries. My Pistachio Latte was good, but it was a tad on the sweet sweeter side. I had my husband mix some of his Americano with my latte so it balanced out a little bit more for both of us. All in all, nice new and intimate location with a few tables indoors and outdoors. I still prefer the other beautiful and more aesthetic locations. Good thing this bakery wasn't here when I lived here, I would be broke! Lol.

Now the food was very good. The sandwich and the grilled cheese was pleasantly satisfying. The gooey cheese formed a string as you slightly bit into the grilled cheese and trying to stretch it as far as you could without breaking the string of cheese. The latte my husband enjoyed to the fullest. It was exactly what he needed to warm his belly. And the soup did the same to me. Such a warm sensation warming the rest of my body. Can't wait to return.

Every bite was rich and satisfying, and honestly I couldn't even wait to take a proper picture before digging in. Second, the staff were incredibly kind and welcoming. They clearly love what they do. They took their time recommending flavors, let us try different samples, and made the whole experience feel fun instead of rushed. That level of friendliness really makes a place memorable. And lastly, I LOVED that they had games available to play. Such a cute and thoughtful touch! It made the visit feel more like a cozy hangout than just a quick dessert stop. Sitting there, playing games, and enjoying good ice cream was such a vibe. Overall, such a sweet little spot with great energy, great service, and delicious ice cream. Definitely a place I'd come back to again and again.

It tasted natural and homemade, with the amazing taro flavor. There were also 3 nice scoops of the ice cream, so I insisted my colleagues to take a bite as well. It was sinfully good!

I really like the spot in particular they have a drive-through so if I'm in my car or making errands, I can just do the drive-through. The person doing the drive-through and making the coffee is very quick. I've only been waiting about 3 to 5 minutes so far. Just took a sip of my friends coffee that I got him and it tastes amazing. I will definitely be stopping at Foxtail more often. !!
