Lighthouse Coffee review

Ask anyone around what is the first name that comes into mind when you ask them about coffee.. Most would say Starbucks but after I visited this cafe, I found my true passion in coffee and learned things I never did know in the first place visiting Starbucks since my secondary school days.. And yes that is very long ago and I am old I know that. Do you know that coffee brewed at the right temperature and right way is sweet on it's own? Did you even know that there are specific amounts to follow to a certain temperature and duration makes all the difference in the coffee you sip? Heck, even they way you drink makes a difference... Even the way you roast the beans makes it different... This is what I have learned on my visit here.. The owner gave us an impromptu coffee appreciation class...
Located at the hidden corner around Bishop Street intersecting with Beach street and part of the Logan Heritage Building... I was actually given the chance to get to know coffee better as part of being a participant in the Penang Heritage Food Trail event.
What is Lighthouse coffee without Lighthouses right?
The menu is all on the board for easy ordering..
Real roasted beans on hand. You could basically smell the aroma of roasted coffee by standing just outside the cafe..
Introduction to the beans here..
And you could leave a note on their wall of notes...
Espresso...
Latte.. Oh and did I mention they do provide training to those who wanted to learn how to create a perfect cup of latte... Patterns are poured not etched... Look at the last pic for the steps..
Latte Mocha...
Signature drink, Red Devil for Her 2.0... not bersih 2.0 ok? This is one of the fruity drinks I have had here...
Mochachino with other drinks... Feel the difference with what you can have outside yet? Read on...
Orange Moon... Coffee with chocolate powder, a slice of orange and a touch of cinnamon.. It's already nice on it's own till i start drinking it with the cinnamon "straw"... Heaven...
Coffee Baked Rice with cheese... I would recommend you to have this before you try any strong coffee unless you have a glass of water to rinse the coffee taste away to retaste this..
Focaccia Special.. Turkey ham, scrambled egg..
Pannani with cheese...
Tiramisu... What makes this special is that they are made with their own roasted beans coffee powder.. Fresh and strong I would say..
Red Devil For HIM...
The perfect cup of latte...

Curiosity kills the cat - CALIMOCHO @ THE WINE SHOP Penang

Image
Curiosity kills the cat? Why? Cause I tried this cola called curiosity cola from Fentimans once and now I am hooked for life. Some time ago I was invited to try this drink called Calimocho at The Wine Shop in Penang. For those who do not know what it is, it's actually a mixture of wine and cola in equal proportion served with ice in it. The blend? Perfect and not to mention best drink on a hot warm day. Not too sweet, not too alcoholic. I was wondering why they didn't bring this to Penang much earlier. The cola used was imported all the way from the UK by Exclusivetea Sdn Bhd. What makes it one of a kind is that Curiosity Cola from Fentimans was botanically brewed. The taste is not as sweet as any other cola in the market but it brings back memories of those cola candy I once had when I was still a kid. We were also served The Wine Shop's famous dishes, oven fresh "vegetarian pizza"   Best wine pairing "Cheese Platter" and juicy...

Pants on fire while it's down

I was at my friends place some time ago and he is one who always bragged about how many girlfriends he has outside. Oh. By the way he has is married. We were having tea at his place because of some "business" proposals to settle. He was seating quietly reading his morning paper drinking coffee with me. Suddenly, his wife came from behind with a frying pan and almost knocked him senseless then and there. Friend : What was that for? You know pain one anot? Wife : Why do you have a piece of paper in your coat pocket with "Daisy" written on it? Friend : Oh honey, don't you remember two weeks ago before the Chinese New Year when I went to the horse races? Daisy was the name of the horse I bet on. His wife was satisfied with his answer and apologized for wacking him. This morning I went to his place and the same thing happened. The wife came with a frying pan also and wacked him so hard on his head that he can barely stand up after that. Friend : What is this for this...
