I'm not what one would call a coffee expert by any means, but I know a good brew when I sip it... lol
I actually went to NJC for the first time a couple days ago to meet up with our awesome CM for a midmorning CMYE hang... I'd heard the ravings about the "pour over" and I had no idea what it was, so I got one... Golly gee darn whiz bang cheese crackers, America! (Kathleen Madigan, awesome comedienne) That thing was beyond... The flavor was so smooth and toasty delicious... I've never had a purely black coffee before... Ever. This one was even better than some of the Starbucks concoctions I've paid double the money for... I used to wrinkle my nose at the fact that some people drank their coffee black... Now I get it... Especially if they're getting it done like this!
It's inside the 7th Street Public Market, in the midst of a wide open space situation... In fact, I wasn't really sure where it was because I was expecting an actual shop... lol It's a nice bar set up with a completely open space so you can see them perform the magic right before your very eyes... Next time, I have to try the siphon pot... My server Brad explained how it worked and that really looked interesting! I will definitely be back and I can't wait...
