last time i was in seattle i went to this “3rd wave” coffee shop, as they call them. zoka, a roaster and coffee shop pictured above. they had a daily clover decaf choice, which me and c got since it was late. they had a nice assortment of desserts. c got the shortbread cake and i got the chocolate mousse cookie, which was crunchy like a biscotti almost, but good with coffee. the barista came out while we were sitting and told everyone he was going to brew up some new kenyan coffee for everyone to taste. a few people went to try it and he stood around chatting about the wildflower aroma and just jawing on and on about the coffee. i always enjoy seeing people into what they do, and it didn’t surprise me in a city like seattle, but of course it’s much more surprising in g’ville.
