Prufrock, a new café at 275 Veterans Way in Carmel's Midtown, is offering ube-based items, specialty lattes and pastries, a representative for the shop said in a short interview.
The host said guests should stop by Prufrock at 275 Veterans Way, near Allied Solutions; the owner described the shop's menu and local-sourcing approach and said the business chose Carmel because the city is growing and is where they live.
Owner (speaker) said the shop carries pastries and specialty drinks including a pistachio ricotta cake, a velvet lavender latte, a Spanish latte sweetened with condensed milk, and an ice cream croissant. “So far we the only 1 in Carmel selling the ube,” the owner said, referring to ube, a purple Philippine sweet potato used in several of the café’s offerings. The owner also said the café offers a “to go can” designed for customers on bikes or with children.
The owner said the location is “almost in the Midtown” and that they source some bakery items from Moonlight (a supplier cited by the owner) and aim to highlight other local businesses through their menu. The host introduced several items on a tray and encouraged listeners to visit the new establishment.
The interview did not specify opening hours, staffing levels, or whether the business has applied for or received any city permits. Details about pricing and formal opening dates were not provided in the recorded exchange.
For now, the interview serves as a brief profile of a new local food-and-beverage business emphasizing local partnerships and specialty Filipino-flavored items.
