Yes, I was, to my astonishment, asked this question recently at the poolside cafe at an up market resort where I was staying in Northern NSW. Over the many years I have been a caffe latte drinker, I have had countless weird and not so wonderful latte experiences. I find myself on a constant quest in search of the perfect latte. I decided years ago to begin recording and illustrating some of the many horrendous caffe lattes I have been served in various cafes. I actually put these together in a self-published gift book entitled Caffe Latte: The Highs and Lows of a Connoissuer's Experiences. You can purchase this book on ebay.

As my quest continues I will share with you my various latte experiences along the way.
Dear reader, I invite you to share with me any of your own unusual latte experiences. Please leave a comment. I will be posting descriptions and illustrations of my unusual caffe latte experiences regularly so watch this blog!

What is according to you a perfect latte?

Thanks for your question, youriv, regarding the perfect latte. I hope my next blog answered this adequately. Would love to hear your definition of a perfect latte...
ReplyDeleteThanks Deb for putting the message out there about good coffee and what it means. My choice is a decaf/soy/latte. Some may say that is 'weak' but it shouldn't matter what our choice of ingredients are, it is our right to have a good coffee made for us regardless. I've had some shockers over the years....but I find that as long as they use a thermometer to prevent burning the soy, then it's fine. Good luck! Vee x
ReplyDeleteThanks for your comments,dianne. I respect your coffee preferences and I hear you say "Please don't scorch the milk!" Nothing worse than that stale, reheated, overheated taste. Would love to hear one of your worst coffee experiences.
ReplyDeleteHere's to good coffee...
