Coffee Zone, a new place that embraces among the trees
✨"This new café showcases a new look right at the main entrance. Its design plays with classic 19th and 20th-century concepts, perfectly in harmony with the surroundings, where trees and brick walls embrace us in a unique atmosphere, giving it a truly valuable appeal.
A unique detail of this place is the fact that it has a gas stove as an option for making coffee in case the electricity is out, something that has become common in my country lately." @roswelborges
Fukuro Japanese Inspired Cafe at SM Mall Cagayan de Oro
✨"We went to SM Mall 4th floor and planned to visit the cafe I used to visit before that serves 45 pesos coffee or less than 1 HBD, but to my surprise that the cafe was no longer there and had already pulled out. So I looked for another cafe and saw Fukuro cafe.I was attracted to their Japanese-inspired cafe stall, so I tried to order a Spanish cafe latte.It was pricey for 1.5 HBD price, yet I still like to give it a try." @antonette
Enjoying an afternoon with San Domingo Premium coffee and Guava Oreo cookies
✨"We began the ritual of opening the package of coffee and the first thing we did was see the appearance of the ground beans and taste the aroma once opened and I was a little worried that the aroma was not as strong as I expected, as I mentioned before I like to drink coffee strong and the aroma did not seem strong enough to me, the appearance of the bean did not look dark enough, so because of my suspicions I prepared this coffee with 4 and a half cups of coffee to make sure it was strong enough." @bulkathos
Back to El Artesano Coffee Shop
✨"While we waited for our order, I took the photos that I am sharing with you, as the place has a rustic, bohemian, minimalist, and slightly retro decor. The service there is also top-notch. One of the things I liked from the moment I saw it on my first visit was where all the coffee-making equipment is located: the vending machine, cups, and ingredients they use. Along with the coffee beans, this is where the magic happens and, of course, where the barista works." @brujita18
The best vanilla latte at Chollett's Café ☕✨
✨"My friend could tell from my expression that I loved it, because when you're a coffee lover, it's impossible to hide how much you like it 🤭. We chatted and drank our delicious coffees, caught up on each other's lives, and when our cups were empty and we had shared all our stories, we decided it was time to leave, but not before thanking them for the excellent service and the delicious coffee that accompanied our catch-up session. And you, my dear coffee lover, what do you think of Vanilla Latte coffee?" @paolamandelbaum
A cultural issue
✨"What's the matter? I'm Cuban, and in my country, coffee is an essential part of our culture. Almost every home is home without a cup of coffee in the morning or after meals.
The same doesn't apply to tea, which is also drunk, but not as much." @elviguitarra
Planning Life Over Coffee at Key Coffee Kissaten
✨"From the outside, you can already see if the cafe is full. Luckily, a few seats were still open. Most cafes in BGC are always crowded, so finding one that isn’t packed feels like a win. The staff welcomed us, guided us to our seats, and handed over the menus. Unlike Starbucks, where you line up, here you can take your time choosing your order while sitting." @cthings
Coffee Musings | She is Back!
✨"We spent a great time sitting and talking about just the kind of normal stuff one would go over during dates. I like having a date today after I teach my classes. It seems I have gone almost full-time teacher. It is not like that, but whenever I get to write these posts, I am near the time of my classes. Teaching on Saturday is an interesting thing. It helps busy people. I also get a rest from workshop duties." @bertrayo
An Afternoon Of Golfeados And Coffee ☕️.🍩
✨"I also ordered a hot coffee to go with my golfeado. Look at this photo, I zoomed in because you don't see this every day: the golden brown golfeado, the sweet papelón, and that topping of almost melted cheese. Oh, didn't I tell you that golfeado has to be served warm? Well, yes! It's a sweet that's served warm, not too hot but warm enough for the cheese to stick to the bread. Every bite took me straight back to my neighbourhood. Mmm, what sweet memories!" @mballesteros
My morning vent while enjoying a coffee
✨"What surprises me, and here I am thinking about this while I have another cup of coffee, is how punctually they bring their children to class. But when they start sending homework or asking for parental support, well... that's when they disappear. It's ironic, isn't it?" @yelimarin
