Sweet And Salty

Lovely spot serving delicious food, as well as delicious healthy options. The dishes are nicely prepared, fresh and well executed, and in good portion. Wonderful smoothie and enjoyable coffee. Pricing is slightly above average but the quality is great. Despite the busy busy atmosphere, staff were accommodating and polite. The cozy, laidback establishment offers both airconditioned indoor and outdoor areas - great for socials and peaceful atmosphere for working. I especially like the outdoor area that overlooks the greenery and large fields beyond.

The food and drinks are excellent, we enjoyed it so much we came back every morning during our vacation! The staff is attentive and kind, and the atmosphere is great. Highly reccomended! Especially enjoyed the lime basil tart and the hash browns.

Overall, a well-run café with solid quality — but not one we’d go out of the way for, given the many options around Koh Samui. - We dropped by during a slightly busy hour, but the staff were kind enough to slot us in with a time cap, which was appreciated - The raf coffee was excellent — rich, creamy, and one of the more reliable Russian-style coffees we’ve had across cafés - We also tried a watermelon juice (nice, refreshing) and the orange espresso, which had a bold, pulpy orange base that complemented the coffee well — raw, sharp, and quite enjoyable - For food, we ordered the Draniki (Russian potato pancakes), which came as two thick stacks with veggies and salmon — the pancakes were hearty, but the salmon tasted a bit too strong or gamey for our liking - That said, it might just be the traditional prep — different from the smoked salmon we’re used to in places like Dubai, Singapore, or Switzerland - The big breakfast plate was a variation on the same theme — with eggs, bread, and the same pancakes; the scrambled eggs were fine, bread was unremarkable ✅ Overall, we appreciated the effort and authenticity, but it didn’t fully land for our taste — probably more suited to those familiar with or craving Eastern European flavours
