This particular joint reminds the lions of a former haunt in Jalan Kilang. Coffee, pure and simple, straight up. No other trappings. Not a thought paid for earthly economic sensibilities. |
Coffee and apparatus galore... ... |
Beans du Jour from Chiangmai in burlap bags. |
Brown coffee paper bags for grabs at the retail area. |
A hand-crafted copper drip kettle by Monarch Methods. Designed and hand-built by Chris Chekan in Toronto, Canada. |
Science lab. Pour over contraptions with beakers capturing the essence of single origin beans from Honduras and Guatemala. |
The White Brew ($4.50) - simply translates to aeropress coffee with "a touch of milk". A mild (akin to Japanese coffee) and smooth cup. Hmmm the lions are more used to heady, punchier concoctions. The rationale, they were told, was that coffee done this way (using gentle air pressure through a micro-filter ) usually turns out more balanced, cleaner and possess less acidity. Debatable. For geeks who want to do this at home, something to help you get started: http://blog.coffeereview.com/coffee-at-home/the-aeropress-coffee-maker-2/ |
Ice globe made of coffee as well to avoid dilution. |
End of experience... ... |
Other eager pilgrims at the table. |
It was a sublimely blissful session for the two cats. They've not enjoyed coffee this much at a cafe in a long while.
