chai. 135 goswell road, london, ec1




so... here's the place i mentioned yesterday.
it used to be a car spares shop then they made half of it into a coffee shop.



the owner takes great pride in his coffee. he changes blends 4 times a year.
at the moment it's a summer blend



i had a single espresso while we chatted... it was as described... really sweet.
quite fruity... very nice indeed.



i took a look behind the counter and he has take-away cups in different colours.
white for espresso, yellow for small drinks, red for medium and blue for large.



i had a take-away small latte with an extra shot.
i do like the black lids.



the latte was excellent...
if you're ever between the angel and the barbican, go check it out.
