Being new to the Brisbane caffe latte scene, and having endured the Marshmallow Latte on my last visit, I made some quick enquiries amongst some locals seeking their recommendations for a good cafe that would serve me a reliable caffe latte. There was a general consensus amongst the gathering of locals who I was visiting, that a popular cafe in nearby Rosalie would satisfy my latte needs.
My travelling companion and I located the cafe and were satisfied with the overall ambiance and decor...all very open with deck from where to enjoy the warm tropical air and take in the passing sights. I ordered my latte with confidence as the cafe felt right and had come with many local recommendations.
As the waitress lowered my latte towards the table space in front of me, I thought there may have been a mistake and that I was being served someone else's dessert as the latte receptacle resembled a large, white ceramic, spinning bowl wide at the top and then sharply tapered to a narrow base. As I peered within, however, I was reassured by the creamy milk threaded with a good, rich espresso coffee, that this was indeed the latte I had ordered. The grooves etched around this white receptacle made it easier to get a firm hold but also gave it a spinning effect as though my latte was constantly in motion. Two hands recommended to hold this latte steady.
