Top Brew Coffee Bar @ Plaza Damas 3

意大利濃縮咖啡(Espresso),是許多意大利人早餐時最愛的飲料,

同時也是許多咖啡飲料如拿鐵(Lathe)、卡佈奇諾(Cappuccino)和摩卡(Mocha)等的基礎。

我常喝拿鐵和卡佈奇諾,但卻不懂得欣賞濃縮咖啡,

總覺得它太苦了而且味道很單調。

不過前陣子,我卻在Top Brew喝了一杯,不,應該說四杯很有趣的濃縮咖啡。

Top Brew是一間剛開業不久的咖啡館﹔老闆是一位二十三歲的年輕人。

雖然年紀輕輕的,卻在許多咖啡師比賽中得過不少的獎項。

那天他做了兩份(shot)濃縮咖啡給我們﹔

第一份是當咖啡從機器萃取出來時,把它完整的裝在一個杯子里,

而另一份則在萃取時把它分成前、中、後三杯。

然後要我先試試第二份這三杯咖啡的不同,最後才和第一份拿來做比較。

我喝了第一杯,整個眉頭都皺了起來,好酸啊!

而第二杯就順口多了,味道也很香﹔第三杯呢則有點稀釋過的感覺。

他對我們說,我們一般喝的濃縮咖啡(如第一份)﹔

就是由這三種不同口味的咖啡組成,

改變這三種咖啡的份量,就可以改變咖啡的口感與味道,很有趣吧?

雖然如此,我個人還是比較喜歡加了牛奶的濃縮咖啡,

所以我們喝完了那兩份Espresso,又點了杯卡佈奇諾來嘗嘗。

我們很喜歡這里的卡佈奇諾,除了夠香夠濃外,

牛奶的份量也拿捏的很好,不會過多而稀釋了咖啡的味道,

而奶泡的口感也做得絕佳,不愧是冠軍人馬!

後記:

在我們抵達Top Brew前﹔馬少告訴我這的老闆來自新山﹐也是一名寬中生。   

結果我就和學弟就從寬中的校舍﹑學號談到老師們,

再從寬中附近的羅惹紅豆冰談到淡杯laksa, seehum(蛤)和粿條仔。

最後我們還說明年的校慶一定要回寬中一趟,因為那將會是母校的一百週年校慶!

    i wonder if i can ever make a cup of coffee that’s as wonderful as how jh yee makes it. i’m sure i cannot. maybe i can go through the coffee-making training, but i wouldn’t have the talent like him, and probably not the passion also 😀

      Haha, your passion is food, different lah. 😛
