Cafe review

Must be time for another cafe review.

Bern and I went out last evening "just because". We were going to check out Katapo, but it was shut. So we looked at a couple of 2nd hand book shops (no luck there) and went to our old favourite, Espressoholic.

It is our old favourite because it is the one 'coffee and cake' place that seems to be open any time we are in town of an evening, whether early or late. If anyone ever left comments on this blog (which they don't seem to) they could perhaps recommend other coffee places for 10pm and later.

The latte is generally good there, though seemed only average last night. I often go for chocolate cake, but they had something new last night - citrus coconut cake - so I had that. It was a good idea in theory, but a bit dry, and needed more citrus flavour. Also, the cream was overwhipped. So it'll be back to the chocolate cake next time.

They have funky painted tables and walls there, so if nothing else you get to feel hip and cool just being seen there!

Here's a link to someone else's review of the place.
