Maison H | Douala's Lebanese-Style Brunch Oasis ☕🥑
In power-outage-prone Douala 💡 where international chains are scarce, Lebanese-owned Maison H emerges as a breath of fresh air ☕️, winning over the local middle class with authentic European café culture. This hybrid space blends: • Specialty coffee • Artisanal bakery • Light meals 🥑 • Handmade ice cream ...becoming the city’s weekend brunch "salvation"! ✨ Highlights 🏛️ Aesthetic Design: High ceilings + tropical plant walls 🌴 + marble tables = Instagram gold Coffee Craft: Rare African beans, iced latte art too beautiful to stir 🎨 🍽️ Must-Try: Avocado toast with harissa (Africa’s answer to Eggs Benedict) 🥑 Lebanese manakish flatbread (local professionals’ favorite) 🫓 Three-tier afternoon tea feat. Cameroonian cocoa macarons ☕️ 🧈 Secret Weapon: French-imported butter = Parisian-quality croissants 🇫🇷 ⚡️ Reality Check vs. Abidjan’s vibrancy, Douala feels limited 🛒 — yet Maison H perfectly fills the "refined lifestyle" gap. At ~15,000 XAF (≈$18), the reliable generator and WiFi 📶 alone justify the splurge. 📌 Need to Know 📍 Location: Bonanjo business district (near French school) Heads Up: Weekend waits after 11am , staff speak better French than English 🗣️ 🎁 Perk: Show student ID for free artisanal chocolate “Sipping flat white here, I almost forgot I was in Africa” - Google review ✍️ #DoualaSurvivalGuide #AfricanCoffeeMap #BrunchSavesTheDay
