Leo introduced me to americanos during the summer. They’ve been an important part of my work day mornings ever since! To be honest, I still can’t taste the difference between an americano and drip coffee, and the only reason why I’ve stuck to it is because of the beautiful crema at the top.

Brunch at County General, for which we were inexcusably late for (thank goodness for forgiving friends), dog stalking at Trinity Bellwoods Park, and a smooth pour over finish at Dark Horse Espresso Bar to end the day. Hopefully the film shots turn out nice!
It’s such a silly thing to care about, but I really love it when coffee shops use those beautiful brown cups I kept seeing in New York. So far, Dark Horse Espresso Bar is the only one that I’ve noticed who uses them. The colour combo of the brown with the coffee and the foam just makes it look so much more scrumptious…
In other news…
We updated the Eaten section! This time it’s all alphabetical and stuff, woo! (Thank you, Leo!)
I got myself a new twitter account, follow me at @patriciaeats, where I’ll be posting stuff like the no-knead bread I made on Friday and other things.
Leo is finally on tumblr and made the best cat comic ever.
And…We are going to New York City again! I’m already planning my eating list, though this time I’ll try harder to go check out some galleries.
