Anything here, even a well done espresso, for me requires a little sugar but over there it just works. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Especially if she has great norgs. We had one around here (Cafenatics, on Collins St in the old AXA Building courtyard) that actually did a really good cup. Sure we probably paid an extra 50-70c a cup to what half of the other places within walking distance charged, but it was worth it.The smoking hot chick wasn't actually the barista but she was the order taker/waitress type.An international student it seems, but now her visa's run out she's gone. But alas, I digress. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
