Flat Merangue Gate
I am increasingly convinced that the "flat white" is an Australian invention. I saw no reference to it in Paris earlier this year (but why would you want milk in your coffee in a country where every street corner has such fantastic café aka espresso. I also blogged earlier this year about my attempt to get a flat white in London.
So here I am in the Golden Gate Perk purveyors of fine Coffee, lemon merangue pie and free wireless access, attempting once again. After attempting to describe the milk/water/froth combination of a flat white, the simplest description we could agree on was "something between a capacino and a latté". After stirring in the foam a bit more I have to say it's not a bad attempt! Certainly better than the "Special Blend" filter coffee I've been drinking all day to try and stay awake. In the end, CA autosys documentation was too much for me and I needed some real coffee! 01:44 PM, 06 Dec 2005 by Mark Aufflick Permalink | Comments (0)
