I am in a constant search of good coffee in Chandler...
Pay-Sho-Tow..
Ok. The reviews were excellent - I had to check them out. The prices were as comparable to the green mermaid logos. As I walked in (10 in the morning), it was full of customers. Wow...
Well, I had to put them to a test...
I ordered a macchiato.. The barista's exact words were - "Do you know what a macchiato is?....REALLY...?? He tried to explain to me. ..I told him I already knew, that's why I'm ordering it... I was in a good mood, so I took it as the barista was trying to be helpful. Arrogantly helpful.....
The coffee came - looked good. I took it outside as it was packed inside and started to taste it. It was just ok. Just ok.
My thoughts:
Ambience - (+3)
Barista's knowledge - (+4)
Pricing - (-3)
Taste - (+3)
Pastries - (-4)
TOTAL = 3
I'll be back for a latte and ask for a cappuccino process flow...Or an espresso machine schematic drawing.
