Black Coffee Dessert Bar

I was at Black Coffee Dessert Bar with Suhaimie and Terence but I had an iced tea. Hahaha! We were there to catch up with Nizam and i finally i found out who is James; the guy who wore a fishermen hat. I just found out that Black is using a Mirage. I heard "ehem ehem" is also using the same machine.

Hmmm..Nothing much to talk about the coffee ( I'm being honest) except..... i noticed  that the surface of the cappuccino "bubbled" badly. It is definitely not the Barista or the milk. I bet it's the beans. I had the same experience a few months back and it's due the coffee beans. There was more proportion of Robusta beans in the blend which I worked with  before back then. I even drank 100% Robusta espresso shot before (YES i really did). So you can't hide Robusta beans from me. I feel that a blend shouldn't exceed more that 20% of Robusta beans in a blend.
Yes, adding Robusta beans saves cost but it really affect the quality of your overall blend. I' not a Robusta hater but with the right proportion, an espresso blend with it can be excellent too.

On a lighter note, the place really have a good ambiance and i will come back to hang out there over a cup of Ice blended.
