This is the slot where I normally make a witty remark about an establishment in which I have just dined or sipped, or gorged, or chugged but when I have nothing funny to say about a place, it doesn't mean it's humourless (and lord knows I'm not), it just means it's great!
La Merceria, an adorable, light-filled, little spot, in the heart of the King and Bathurst district, leaves me jokeless. How can I kid about a place that makes a mocha latte by melting a bar of dark chocolate into a cup? This coffee shop is serious business! They also have very tempting pastries (I had to do everything to stop myself from picking off the buttery caramel from a pecan bun at the counter) and the cutest little tables.
Tip: I for one have exed any boy off my list who has made the choice to take me for coffee on the first date, but I might reconsider if he brought me to La Merceria.
