Coffee ~

Today was a surprise day off ~


I went into work this morning only to find out that I actually wasn't scheduled to go in today.


My manager was so confused to see me. "Didn't you read your schedule?"


I did! Just not...that closely???


I actually make this mistake pretty often....


With no plans for the rest of the day I went to a Japanese coffee shop by day/sake bar by night called Hi-Collar.

This is Mamuto AA


It's a medium roast coffee that's supposed to have a taste of plum and black grape in it.


Just the right amount of bitterness for me! I wanted to know what it would  taste like with milk and sugar. The milk made it more sour and I don't think I added enough sugar for the taste to change. I think I enjoyed the taste much more without adding anything to it.


I didn't take proper pictures of the inside but the atmosphere was so nice! Imagine a bar but instead of alcohol behind the counter there are different kinds of coffees, teas, china, and french presses. Every time a new pot of coffee was made the entire place was filled with vanilla or berry or chocolate notes,  and there are also things like fluffy Japanese style pancakes, parfaits and omelet rice on the menu so I ended up staying longer just for the scents!


Jazz music played in the background and the decor of this place is pretty enchanting making it one of the most comfortable cafes I've ever been to.


Prior to coffee I'd stuffed myself with curry so by the time I left the cafe I was pretty sleepy...


(Coffee should wake you up. Not for a cofeeholic like me!!!)


So lastly, I'll share a sleepy song I've been into recently.




Ciao!
