Weekly round up

This week I have mostly been drinking loads of coffee. Various circumstances conspired to keep me out of the studio and away from my work. So when out and about it was either pub or coffee shop. Not liking to hit the sauce before the sun is over the yardarm, it's been the latter I've been frequenting. With mixed results:

First up my old friend Coffee#1. I have to say it really comes down to the barista. One serves up a perfect FW, all microfoam, velvety texture right to the bottom and neato foam art, the next a cappucinoesque milky coffee with a squiggle on top. This was a bit of both, neither perfect nor nasty. So so.



Next Tinto Lounge. Odd 'un this. In a tall mug. A nice milky coffee, but not a FW. No discernible fernage. It was breakfast service though and perhaps their regular barista hadn't come in yet...




Finally Boston Tea Party. As ever here, bit messy and dead bitter coffee, but held its velvety texture right down to the bottom. And we all know it's the velvety bottom we're after. FWIW had a takeaway FW from the BTP in Clifton Village last week, the coffee was OK but the lovely Antipodean who served me really made my day - a charming young lady.




Needing a lower caffeine day, had a cup of oolong yesterday, but that's a whole different cup of tea....
