GOOD MORNING

LATTE PORTRAITS - PRINTING YOUR FACE ON YOUR COFFEE

How would you feel, drinking a latte with your own face on it?

To attract more customers from bigger, more established coffee chains, Taiwanese coffee chain Let’s Café decided to print its customers’ faces on their lattes.  Using a special coffee printer, customers could upload their photos to the machine, and the printer will instantly reproduce their image using cocoa powder.

Ridiculously original and fun, or slightly creepy?  Are latte portraits the future of coffee?

3D COFFEE CUTENESS

Wow, that's all I can say, just - wow!

Osaka Japan-based coffee artist Kazuki Yamamoto that is already known for his amazing 2D coffee art, is now taking it to "new heights" with 3D coffee art!

His 3D renditions seriously look too cute to be drunk!  0.0

How cool is that?  Love it!  :) 
Check out Kazuki Yamamoto's twitter page for some more mind boggling coffee art in both 2D and 3D.



Hope you're having an amazing Thursday guys and gals,

Picture Moments - Saturday Carbs & Norwegian Food market

Yesterday we spent most of the day in Oslo, exploring Skøyen.  I haven't been walking around in the streets of Skøyen for quite some time, and it's fun to see how much things has changed.

We went to our old regular coffee shop and looked outside on the busy Saturday streets.  I love love love Kaffebrenneriet! :)  I mean look at that huge cup!  Perfection!

Miss happy camper in her home knitted Marius sweater!  Loving a huge latte while stealing parts of a lovely carby cookie from her husband!

After our lovely coffee break, we headed over to the food market that has opened in Skøyen - Maschmanns Matmarked.  I've just got one thing to say: ...Wow!
I was expecting the same type of silly food hall (Mathallen i Bergen) that they opened in Bergen - which I find to be a joke - but this, this was some serious stuff!

In contrast to Mathallen i Bergen that sells already filleted fish and that's mainly that, they actually had a large variety of different foods:  Fish, whole, dried and filleted, tons of seafood, cow in various cuts and sizes, pork, poultry including mountain birds still whole, different types of rice, oils, spices... I could go on and on.
So far I think one of the best selections I've seen in Norway.

Yo Bergen! *waving*  Heads up - Get one of these!   People would go crazy in a split second and run down your doors!


Now it's time for a nice and calm Sunday, watching my R playing on the ps3 while I knit, and then we finish it off with a traditional Norwegian course for dinner - Pinnekjøtt.  First time ever we're cooking it ourselves - practicing for dinner guests  ;)
I'm crossing my fingers for it turning out alright.


Hope you're having a smashing weekend!

Coffee Italian Style

If you ever pass by Drammen and are feeling thirsty, you should really check out the Italian coffee shop Barista in the city center at Bragernes Torg.

They so have the best coffee in town.  Popped by there this morning for a double cappuccino.

I highly recommend it :)

In the summer it's a perfect place to drop by and get some proper Italian gelato and go for a stroll along the river afterwards.
*Pssst* They also sell this amazing sweet ice coffee called a Cremosito that is the best there is. Seriously.

Cloud wanted to pop by to send you all a great big *puurrrr* and wish you all a great weekend!
