Summary: What would you change if you could go back in time?
In a small back alley in Tokyo, there is a café which has been serving carefully brewed coffee for more than one hundred years. But this coffee shop offers its customers a unique experience: the chance to travel back in time.
In Before the Coffee Gets Cold, we meet four visitors, each of whom is hoping to make use of the café’s time-travelling offer, in order to: confront the man who left them, receive a letter from their husband whose memory has been taken by early onset Alzheimer's, to see their sister one last time, and to meet the daughter they never got the chance to know.
But the journey into the past does not come without risks: customers must sit in a particular seat, they cannot leave the café, and finally, they must return to the present before the coffee gets cold . . .

Summary: Mi dan Ma dan Mo tidak pernah melihat kucing seperti Nona Gigi. Tentu saja, mereka sudah pernah melihat kucing biasa. Tapi Nona Gigi adalah Kucing Luar Biasa. Kucing Luar Biasa berarti kucing yang di luar kebiasaan. Nona Gigi adalah Cara Lain yang dinantikan oleh Bapak dan Ibu Mo untuk menjaga Mi, Ma, dan Mo ketika keduanya keluar rumah mencari uang. Sebab di Kota Suara, semua uang yang tersedia di dasar laut sudah diambil oleh para perompak, uang di bawah tanah diambil oleh para perampok, dan uang di ranting pohon diambil oleh pengusaha kayu yang jahat.
Nona Gigi mengajak Mi dan Ma dan Mo dan Fifi dan Fufu—anak kembar Tetangga Baru bertualang mengunjungi tempat-tempat indah. Mereka naik Kereta Air, bertemu Kolonel Jagung, bermain di Sirkus Sendu, dan menyaksikan kemegahan Kota Terapung Kucing Luar Biasa.
Kita pergi hari ini. Ke tempat-tempat indah dalam mimpi-mimpi anak-anak baik-baik.
I only ever want the simple and small things. A bowl of fruit. To exist comfortably. To be accepted. To be loved. To eat nice food. To laugh as much as I can.
