A personal blog detailing dining and eating experiences
Started off the third day of Madrid having coffee and lunch at this place.
So this was the first time I had a savory crepe, and it was delicious. Got a simple one (ham y cheddar). It was good, but would get the one my friend got next time (his had mushrooms, cheese, bacon and egg). Also got a latte. Would recommend this place.
We went to this place for the first round of coffee in our 2nd day in Madrid.
I was about to get an iced mocha, but the barista insisted I get an iced latte so I could taste the actual flavor of the coffee. He also weighed the grinded coffee. Would come back here again.
An Italian food market great for drinks and, well Italian food and pastries. (There are also locations in Vegas and Paris, but this one is about the New York).
This is located at the World Trade Center building 4. Definitely great for Aperol Spritz and making your own cannoli (made mine with cow’s milk, and ciocolatto, which is 70% chocolate).
Next time I really want to try the pizza and/or pastas.
We went here for brunch on the last day of the festival (recommended by Milly). Ordered a Serbian dish (which is also served by neighboring countries like Croatia, and got something called pljeskavice. It tastes sort of like a burger, but more plain. Don’t think I would get it again. I did get a latte, and it was actually pretty good (I think they added a little bit of sugar on it). The orange sauce pictured below was good with bread. Also tried the grilled chicken from a friend, and it tasted good (I would get that dish).
One side note is that they have limited alcohol (couldn’t make a mai tai, and no Prosecco).
We stopped by here after venturing around the Tisno bridge.
Got the chicken appetizer dish, and a mimosa (they didn’t know what it was, so they put wayyyy too much orange juice). The chicken appetizer was really good, and the white sauce on it was pretty interesting. Also got a latte to go, and it was decent. I would come back to this place again.
Went to this place for brunch the second day at defected. Ordered the lasagna with white wine. It’s were excellent. The view was also excellent.
Update (8/8/2021): got scrambled eggs with ham plus a latte. All pretty good (also the toast and butter were good… apparently butter in Europe is different).
Update (8/9/2021): got an omelette. Also good, but would get the two dishes above over the omelette.
Went here for brunch on the second day at Hvar.
Got scrambled eggs with bacon. Eggs were great, but bacon was too salty. Also, asked for a mimosa. The waiter said they didn’t have any, but in fact they did (got “champagne” instead, but it ended up being some sort so sparkling rose). Also got a latte at the end, and it wasn’t good.
Overall, it’s, not that I wouldn’t come back here but I think there are other places I would wanna check out.
Tried out this place for a caffeine pickup.
This place is pretty comparable to Kona Coffee and Tea (ie it is a bit watery). But what turned me off about this place is the service. The cash register person seemed like she really wanted to rush me out (ie I said I would be ordering several drinks, and she wanted to check me out when I just ordered one drink). For this reason I wouldn’t come back to this place (although the mocha I ordered was acceptable. Also, the green flash smoothie that someone else ordered was pretty good).
We bit up this coffee shop after brunch. Was thinking of getting an afogato (since the place also had ice cream, but there was a lava latte (basically an iced latte with ice cream and Oreo cookies).
After arriving at Old Town San Diego, we headed to this place for a caffeine boost.
This place had a really interesting coffee menu, with most of choices for lattes and mochas. I ended U.K. getting the iced hazelnut latte. Too be honest, I would get one of the mochas next time, but I still enjoyed the latte.
