Coffee

[Bazal]

Strangely enough, it's very hard to find a good coffee in Canberra. I have no idea why, because there are some awesome places to get everything else food/drink related. Just not coffee, for some reason. I usually go short black or flat white, depending...but I drink loads more tea than coffee

I think I need a half dozen coffees right now, feel like I'm about to fall asleep!

I usually have one in the morning. I appreciate good coffee & as a result I flatly refuse to drink instant.

If I am at work I'll head down to the best coffee in Brissy Alen's Espresso (http://www.alensespresso.com.au/media/Alens_Coffee.mp3) 420 George St about a 5 minute walk South of Roma St Train Station. I have been a customer for more than 4 years & still yet to find a better cuppa. Then again you can get 5 different people and get them to try 5 different coffees, and they may have a different view. it's all subjective.

If I have the day off I'll make one at home, I actually make a better cuppa than the clowns at Macca Mcafe, GJ etc. In all honesty it's not that hard, get the right beans & ground for your machine then the crema and you're set. My wife hates it if I am on days (usually up at 3:30am) so she has to have instant, Mrs. Johns not happy at all :evil:

Drinking it black is an option.

I dont mind espresso's and macchiato, but dont really like black instant coffee.

Not a big coffee drinker. Only really drink it in winter.

When I'm at work ill just have whatever instant coffee is available.

If I go to the shops or junior footy it's usually a cappuccino with 3 sugars.

Otherwise in summer coffee is substituted for 650ml cans of monster import.

a good way to enjoy some nice espresso is as a Affogato (served over ice cream)

great dessert
