preparing for Coutume Cafe

the journey is as fulfilling as arriving at the destination

Saturday morning
coffee beans weighed, then freshly ground
aroma of freshly ground coffee beans fills the kitchen

Cool water, heating to just the right temperature
Cold milk heating and frothed
A teaspoon of vanilla bean simple syrup in the bottom of my favorite Paris cup

pour, layer, stir, dust with cinnamon

enjoy!

As I make the cappuccino, I dare to imagine the taste of a professionally prepared cup at Coutume Cafe in the 7th arrondissement.....soon......very soon

Here's the LINK to the final images from Paris 2011-4

Watch this blog for (hopefully) daily posts from The City of Light!  soon....very soon
