I feel very lucky to have discovered Egoland. As it was located conveniently close to my hostel, it quickly became my go-to place for breakfast and going over my daily planning in a peaceful, yet vibrant environment, as they thankfully provided wifi. Their soft serve is rightfully iconic among the patrons, but I personally particularly liked their tortilla and gateau au chocolat. I'm also always happy to discover a japanese place where the coffee tastes like actual coffee, hence why the long black and espresso were my usual orders.
