Coffee Shops & It's Load Of Goodies

What I normally do inside a coffee shop: eat, sip and read a good book

Food establishments, especially coffee shops, are the ones that I usually gravitate no matter what mood I'm in. Whether I'm in a celebratory mood for earning a work related incentive, or to ease myself back to normalcy from the frenetic schedule of the past week at the office, or maybe to set the mood with the suspense-thriller fiction I'm currently engrossed reading, or to bawl my frustrations about life and love with my closest friends. But these days, I head to these food places to nurse a weary heart. A lot of things occupy my mind lately and these food places helped me to take it slow, gather my resolve and refuel myself to pick up steam for the next journey.

FACE-OFF: Flat Whites & Latte Arts

I first heard about the existence of a coffee beverage variant called flat white via Dessert Comes First. I was quite intrigued by it and the word "flat white" has a mysterious appeal to me. So, I set about on trying this out on the two cafes Lori's site has recommended where you could get this type of caffeine beverage.

FACE OFF: Cafes That I Adore

This would be a short list of coffee shops that made such an impression on me and that I would definitely visit again and again and again.

A Day With Henry & Gael

I got a private message from Henry on Facebook wanting us to meet before he set off to Singapore for a month long vacation. He said Gael will be joining us as well. I was only unsure about Henry's specified date (which according to him its non-negotiable because he'll be busy packing and running some errands right after for his impending travel) for us to meet since I'm also expecting another get-together of some sort with Lei and company. Good thing, Lei informed me thru text that the planned get-together will be postponed till next week. The outcome of that get-together with Lei and the rest of my IMPI family was detailed on my Cafe Cristina post.

Subspace Love

I first read about Subspace Coffee just in passing, I'm hard pressed to remember where exactly I read about it. Maybe some online article or briefly mentioned on the comments section of the food blogs I usually frequented. I do remember that I briefly checked their Facebook page and my attention was not immediately caught by it. Not until I checked out one of many who blogged about this coffee shop, and I was literally floored by the design concept and the interiors of the cafe that I knew right away that I must visit Subspace.
