The Little Ox

Mon, 06 Sep 2010 22:58:17 PDT

Vote for this HotShot Cafe It’s all about the vibe, and the vibe is good. This little gem has been pumping out good vibrations for months, and MCR has only just managed to ‘drop by’. Clean, funky and authentic is all I can say. It’s a cool Melb afternoon, and school is out,.. clearly the barista here is the school master and he knows his stuff. I received my short macc post haste and I...

It’s been a while

Sun, 05 Sep 2010 16:28:43 PDT

Hi all, well it has been quite a while since our last post. Things have been busy, really busy . So here is the latest. You will no longer see Dale’s happy face around the cafe, about 5 months ago he traveled to the mighty U.S to do a roasting course, spent a week learning about the intricacies of “Californian Peaches”, among other things. As a result Dale and his Dad, Michael, now do all of...

Espresso Lab Microroasters, Woodstock, Cape Town, South Africa

Sat, 04 Sep 2010 07:35:29 PDT

Location: Cape Town, South Africa An espresso bar/roastery one would expect to see in Scandinavia. Nice clean lines, white and black interior, sweet GB/5 & Mazzer grind-on-demand setups, Aeropress and V60 Buono kettles all back up their awesome team and amazing coffees micro roasted on-site with a stunning Diedrich roaster. Some of the best coffees I've tasted the last year or two (locally...

Sacred Cafe, Holloway, London, United Kingdom

Sat, 04 Sep 2010 04:22:24 PDT

Location: London, United Kingdom Great coffee in an unlikely location: a new development of apartment blocks and studios just off the Holloway Rd. Coffee has an antipodean feel with flat whites and the like, competently drawn from the Marzocca by pleasant staff (also mainly from down under too). Free wifi, mags and newspapers to read. Didn\'t try the food but looked good.

Tomdickandharry's, Falls Creek, Victoria, Australia

Fri, 03 Sep 2010 19:48:28 PDT

Location: Victoria, Australia Located at the new Quay West development at Falls Creek this cafe is pretty much what you would expect for a new shiny resort. Needing to tailor their coffee to the mass / general public it\'s a pretty bland cafe blend Piazza bean. The staff DO make the most of this inoffensive bean and make a pretty consistent brew. I recommend a double shot in your latte or flat...

Fri, 03 Sep 2010 06:16:55 PDT

Location: , Australia Great coffee, the best in Katoomba! They use Coffee Alchemy from Hazel De Los Reyos, in Marrikville and they use a Kees Van Der Westen two group Mirage. The waffles are very good, not like u expect though! Try them with cinnamon and maple syrup and ice cream!

Rouge, Armadale, Melbourne, Australia

Fri, 03 Sep 2010 01:01:39 PDT

Location: Melbourne, Australia Great little French provincial style cafe. Had a great big breakfast of Eggs Benedict on Brioche and a fantastic latte. Was creamy and chocolaty just like I like it. Highly recommended if you are a local looking for a great coffee and something rich to eat, or even if you are just passing through.

Freestyle Espresso, South Melbourne, Melbourne, Australia

Fri, 03 Sep 2010 02:57:06 PDT

Location: Melbourne, Australia I discovered this delightful little place the other week whilst frequenting the South Melbourne Market and have since been back 4 times!! It's a newcomer to the Melbourne cafe scene and whilst small, it "packs a punch" in terms of friendly, welcoming staff, delicious food (all house-made, of course) and best of all my personal fav, Allpress coffee! Freestyle is...

Little Willy's, Northbridge, Perth, Australia

Location: Perth, Australia Great new cafe in Northbridge, opened by the same crew from 'the dancing goat' in Cottesloe. Fiori beans, talented and experienced baristas, friendly service and good seating options make for a sure winner IMO.
