My quest for the perfect coffee
Unfortunately, London is not an easy place to find good coffee. Yes, there are Starbucks on every corner - sorry but I think they are awful. Costa is ok and Cafe Nero does an acceptable latte. Infact if there is no other option I will head for Nero. But what my fellow Antipodeans will know is that there is something far superior. Coffee in Australia has been elevated to a religion of sorts. You will find fabulous coffee in most cafes, served to a standard and always (well almost) served to perfection. Creamy, smooth, strong and served in a small glass - just like illustrated here. Flat White in Berwick Street, Soho revolutionised coffee for me in London and every time I visit it takes me home. Run by guys from Oz and NZ - you will be served a fabulous coffee and it will blow your mind if you haven't tried it before. They also deliver a great Flat White (as the cafe name suggests). Crossed between a capuccino and latte - its silky smooth - no froth and packs a punch. Try one today. And if you have seen the promo's from Costa claiming they spent 1 million quid on developing a flat white - don't believe the hype. Go to Flat White - Berwick Street, Soho. NOW!
