The other day my friend Lisa and I went on a coffee date at Chai Coffee Company in Surrey. It's a cafe tucked away near the Scott Road SkyTrain Station with Indian flavours incorporated in their food menu. We tried a bit of everything and here are my thoughts.
The Neate family (owner of JJ Bean Coffee) first started their business in Vancouver in the 1940s delivering coffee and donuts around town. The donut aspect was lost over the years but now they're bringing it back. Enters Neate Donuts at the Oceanic Plaza. The grand opening promotion is not until May 5-10 but I was in the area so I had to go check it out.
Opened on March 20, OEB Breakfast Co. is now officially in Langley at Willowbrook Shopping Centre. We had a sneak preview of the new location on the weekend and had a Sunday brunch there.
A new Japanese style cafe just arrived in Vancouver. Daigyo Cafe officially opens its doors on Robson Street on February 18, but the soft opening was on February 9. Here's a quick look at the inside and some of its menu items.
Mr. and I went to a coffee tasting experience with Umbria Coffee Roasters. We tasted a variety of their coffee, learned about the philosophy of roasting Italian style coffee, and even had a chance to play barista with their commercial espresso machine. We went home with some of the Caffe Umbria products and of course, we put what we learned to the test.
