I need a cup of joe strong enough enough to stimulate the brain and get my fat arse in motion. It's medicinal, not artisanal. Fine coffee is lost on my somnolent state. As such, I've been searching for someone who will do me a long pull espresso. A Lungo, or Caf\u00E9 Allong\u00E9 for those of you who haven't already wiki'd that bitch. An extraction method that produces a very bitter, highly caffeinated brew that tastes awesome done up breve. Unfortunately for me, the advent of computerized barristas have had me coming up goose egg around Madison. (at least as far as my convenient options went. Yes Bradbury's, I am talking about you). Salvation arrived in the form of Rosie's Coffee bar and a lady named Coz who, earlier this week, finally managed to make a coffee drink I've been trying to get someone to make for me for the last decade. I wouldn't say that coffee was strong but it actually attempted to shiv Coz as she passed it over the counter. This is a place that is determined to do it right. I love that idea and I love Rosie's from the first time I walked through the door. Now please don't tell anyone else about it, let's just keep between us. I don't want to fight for tables and strongly suspect that is inevitable. Go now while the rest of Madison is still still in the dark."^^ . "2015-01-04T00:00:00"^^ .
