yummm!. crema rocks. the place is totally cool-looking, with a funky inner-city vibe -- cool music, decor, and tatted kids with grommets in their super-sized ear lobes.
the coffee's super, too. anyone who serves nova knows what they're doing when it comes to coffee. the barristas really know and care about what they're serving, and they'll go into passionate explanation to teach customers. 'love their passion, and each cofffee feels like a work of art.
my only gripe is that on a hot summer day, the place feels like it's on the hinges of hell - western sun beats it up, and the swamp inadequately pumps air that wets the place up but doesn't cool. i had a business meeting there recently, and by the time we were done, we were all dripping. maybe a steaming mug of coffee on a day like that isn't agoodday anyway. i also wish they'd serve more/bettter accompaniements llikegoodmuffins, sweet rolls, etc. surely there's a bakery nearby that can stock them up.
no matter -- i'm a regular. i'll just make sure i'm there on cooler days.
