I have been trying to find a good Espresso machine and found that if not spending more than $700, the machine is not good. Stumbled upon the Pixie Rouge works like magic for a cup of Espresso, though it is not using coffee bean but capsule. But the quality has not been given up.
As I know there are 2 stores, one at the Bay in downtown and the other in Yorkdale. Only comes here to replenish the stock of the capsules. Once in a while, the capsule flavours are phased out and new ones coming in. When you purchase, you have to be a club member. The staff are cool. Some are experience and some are new. If you ask to try out different flavor that you have not tasted before, sure you can sit at the bar and a cup of fresh brewed Espresso will be served in a porcelain cup to you like a restaurant. You can add your own milk and sugar. By the time you finish your Espresso, your order is ready and available for you to be picked up. You can pay the stock while you are enjoying your Espresso.
Here usually lunch hour, there is a lineup of customers. I try to beat the crowd at other time.
