The Lesser the Fuller

Life's busy at Coffee Shop.
It takes a lot of hours to create the appearance of easy going tranquility.

You relax with a lemon bar, I'm going over here to loose my mind thank you.

"                    "

Quote of the Day - not as popular as the Soup of the Day, but we keep trying to say something about something all the time. Add yours, at your peril.

There has been; Roasted Red Pepper, Cream Spinache, Squash/Ginger, French Onion, and shown here Papa y Puerro (Potato/Leek). They are yummy and we never seem to make enough.

All specials do well in Mvd, people love a bargain. It's good middle ground: please try my food and I'll make it a better deal.

"I'm detective Gonzalez, Intergalactic Space Agency and you're in big trouble buddy". Maybe he said 'Lady'?

Or put your own caption to this photo of our charming regular and friend Christian Serron. He builds web platforms and sites and generally knows everything.
Sorry ladies, he's taken. And sorry to all the dudes as well, Hell's Bells- he's handsome! I know, right?

Rolling Thunder

 The weather has been blustery; cold and sometimes windy. I'd hate to be biking it around town (yeah, that's the reason I don't bike around town) or even motoring as with CS standard Andrew Lim (L). He's driving a sweet Red Vespa, but likely freezing much of the time.










Montevideo continues to churn up sunny afternoons, idiotic political ideas and a populace more optimistic than it lets on or should be really. Why is everyone so nice here when there's so much wrong going on in this world?

Please come and do the research yourself. Stop by for a coffee if you can.

Peace.

not making sense now

thanks for reading.....

El Tigre del Fuego

He came, he saw, he coffeed.

  
Sanitago was as so many very good things; too good to last. Added to our tiny staff mere weeks ago, he'd only just mastered the place when a job offer (in his trained field, graphic design) came along.
We knew it deep down, the guys got talent. Also a member of the up-and-coming band The Bear Season, Check out their newly released video here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NoA5L3C0ePg&feature=youtu.be (or it should appear below). It's clear the sky's the limit for 'El Tigre'. We know he'll be dropping in frequently on his rise to the top.

Sopa!

The weather is cold and wet lately. Precisely why we've added soup to the menu.
Calabaza/Jengibre (Pumpkin/Ginger), Arvejas/Menta (Pea/Mint) and Zanahoria (Carrot), just to name a few. There's a new one every day. Get a half sandwich and soup for $120.

Burritos and Quesadillas continue to win hearts every week. Not particularly adventurous concerning food choice, Uruguayos need some coercing. We tempt and they fall, easy.

Tarte Tatin is edging out our standard Apple Pie lately, but this could be a fad. You know, like French things can be.

Augie (Mucha Leche, don't ask) still working hard despite his busy schedule. He and his friend and Coffee Shop regular Andrew run an English Language Institute called MVD English. They teach business and conversational English to a variety of profesionals and things seem to be going well for them.

Let it go already

Still plenty of activity on the street, mainly some utility tearing it up again. You should have seen these guys unrolling this tube. Clearly letting go was not an option.
It's a nice refuge in here from the mist, the noise and the crush of it all.


Come on in, we've got just the thing.
