So today is the last day of our MICE trip, started at the Oak room in Ashburton today, what a great experience. The owner Ken (farther too the boys at WSB) is passionate about all things coffee and even more passionate about his relationship to his customers. Ken knew everybody by name, nursed their babies while they enjoyed their coffee and helped the oldies sit down with the groceries. Ken took the time to engage and talk with all that came, even during busy periods. On top of that a tremendous breakfast was had and a plethora of great coffee, both espresso and pour-over of mostly COE beans. Yummy. In the afternoon we went to League of Honest Coffee, very clean looking cafe with a couple of nice slayers on the bench. One of Melbourne's go to shops in the city. My only bitch about Melbourne coffee is that they all free pour a short macchiato resulting in the milk blending entirely with the shot really creating a small picilo. Going to start a campaign
