Cardigan cafe with a viet twist (Tufnell Park)

Where: Opposite the more established Rustique - literary cafe (my last review) is this newly opened vietnamese twist on a coffee shop
Famous for: An unusual interest in knitwear adorning the walls. This light and breezy cafe brings the regular selection of brews - headlined with the Iced Vietnamese coffee.
For Food: The menu is simple, these guys know what they stand for: a handful of well prepared French Vietnamese options. The Franco-Viet baguette may not look that impressive, but it was a surprising hit, full flavoured, fresh and exciting.
Overall experience: I'm constantly on the lookout for things to pull one coffee shop apart from the next place. This place certainly does that. Unique it certainly is, with it's quirky obsession for knitting patterns and Vietnamese offerings. There was a definite buzz in the air, with residents treating it as a welcome addition to Tufnell Park's cafe scene.
