The coffeeshop for this trip was all about The Cupping Room. I didn't go out of my way to look for it. But its Wan Chai outlet happened to be the closest decent coffeeshop along my daily route, and I really like this one over of its other two in Cochrane Street (Central) and Sheung Wan. Didn't bother hitting the roastery that's also located in Sheung Wan, two streets away from its cafe.
Most mornings, the complimentary Nespresso capsules in the room do the job fine. They cleverly stocked up our favorite flavors. Coffeeshops are only for the afternoons when I need one more shot of caffeine. I did hop into the Central outlet of The Cupping Room when I needed a cold and hip lunch. It arrived in the form of coconut chia seed pudding with seasonal fruits. Hurhurhur.
Checked out The Cupping Room's roasting schedule because I wanted to buy beans. J wanted a Rwanda Rulindo or Peruvian Quiquera reserve. They had plenty of stock for her. As usual, I'm not one to hoard beans. Bought two packets for myself. Somehow the Geishas don't do anything for the tastebuds. So I also chose a Quiquera reserve, and picked out an Ethiopian/Colombian Attaboy. These should last nicely till end of March.
