Stopped in with the fam to try out the new joint. This turned out to be an excellent decision!
The iced toddy was delicious. you have the option of drinking it out of a cold mason jar for the same price as a small, and that made it retain it's coldness. I got the last green chile pork empanada. It was awesome! Flaky crust and the meat inside was flavorful and moist even though it was under a heat lamp. I tried my mother-in-law's blueberry muffin (read: ate half of) and that was really good too. She loved her latte.
They allow you to dress up your coffee with organic sugar cane syrup at the creamer station. At first I was bummed they didn't offer flavors (I love vanilla iced toddies) but the coffee is so good you don't need to distract yourself from that authenticity with artificial flavoring. A dash of sugar cane syrup gave me the sweetness I craved just fine.
Also- I LOVED the decor. My mil said it felt like Portland. I have to agree. There is a wall behind the barista counter that looks like it popped out of Pinterest. So cute.
We met the owner and you can tell he is proud of his establishment and aims to uphold a high standard of goods and service.
See ya next week, Peixoto!
