There's a lot of great coffee at the east end of Stephen Avenue now, with Insomnia in the Burns Building, Deville in Fashion Central and the newer location of Rosso in the Telus Convention Centre (this storefront was for several years the last holdout of the Grabbajabba franchise, next to A&W) and I love them all, but yesterday I stopped in at Rosso and had a macchiato made with their superb locally-roasted (by Phil&Sebastian) beans and it was just- wow. Time stood still. One of the best macchiatos I've ever had. Macchiato perfetto.
Sandwiches and baked sweets are excellent too. Nice relaxing space to boot.
