Grand Opening

Last night was the official opening of the Coffee Bistro, and I think things went very well! The atmosphere was very laid back, and enjoyable... mellow lights, many candles, soft music. Hmmm.... all you need now is some good company and a wonderful cup of coffee! And we had all of that.

On the menu: Chocolate Chip cookies, Nanaimo bars and Blueberry Muffins!

Some of the drinks we consumed:
- Double Irish Cream Latte
- Raspberry Americano
- Chai Latte
- Macchiato
- Hot Chocolate
- Mocha with Whipped Cream
- Double Raspberry Latte
- Irish Cream & Hazelnut Latte
- Irish Cream Cappuccino

Some of the quotes for the evening were:
“Better than Freaking Larsens & Herligland!”
“Very good coffee, it was very good. Cookies was very good”
“Very cheap, and very good coffee”
“Perfect”
“Very Experimental”
“The best view!”
“Couches are very nice”
“It’s cozy by the fire”
“Owner is very sweet”
“I especially like the candles”
“It’s better than McDonalds”





















For me the highlights were seeing how well the bar setup worked. The wonderful variety of drinks ordered! That makes it much more fun to create!
I love the look of the drinks when I have done a good job – and I love handing those beautiful creations to the customers. The thick layer of crema on top of my espresso… the foamed milk sitting beautifully on top of the cappuccino - these were the moments that marked the evening for me.


I admit it… I can be just slightly obsessively passionate about things. So, it’s more studying and practice for this amateur barista! Perfection is.... well, it's perfection!
