latte art
Posted on April 26, 2004
Buying an espresso drink in Japan can sometimes be a hair-pulling experience,
"A few weeks ago I went into a Starbucks in Shiga and ordered a double espresso. The clerk (can't call her a barista) looked at me as if to ask, "Do we sell that?" Then her supervisor stepped in and handled my off-the-wall request."So when we were in Victoria last Christmas I was amazed at the effort our barista put into creating this beautiful flower in the foam of our lattes. I almost felt bad drinking it.
