When i saw this event on Eat Drink Perth website, i thought i would like to try some of the cafés mentioned above in the Coffee Appreciation Trail. I've never been to any one of them so it would be really interesting to check out these venues.
so far i've tried cappuccino from Frisk & CNR cafés. Prices around $3.80-$3.90 for small cup.
I quite like Frisk's coffee for its creamy froth, the natural sweetness from the milk & the retro lounge area.
CNR is located at a very nice sorta hidden spot at James st corner Lake St. The coffee smell was great & i quite like the round sturdy metal cylinder as seats too.
The next cappuccino i want to try is from Ristretto Espresso Specialists which is currently top with a 268 votes. Also, i always wanted to have a cuppa at the Cabin Fever by the awesome people from Pigeonhole. Haven't get around to it. So, that's on my list too!
*You can vote for the best coffee served here and win a year's supply of free coffee from your favourite venue.
I will reserve my vote until after i've tried a few more. But somehow i really hope that Cabin Fever will have the highest vote cause i went past it a few times, it looks like a really comfy homely place to spend your afternoon at.

Thanks for popping by, Kim! I really like your art work! Inspiring!
Hey Jo! Yes, wish William st thing can be more regular in future! Many interesting stuff! Ya, some Asian culture thing happening like a dragon dance thing. I went around 1:30pm then to upmarket around 3pm. Saw many yummy food at William st but I didn't get to try them. Did u come across something special there?
3pm at upmarket? was it crowded?? I doubt it will bcuz of so many festivals around town! I find the hongbao lantern stall interesting though ahahha teaching the adults and kids how to make hongbao lantern!
not so crowded like the last time i went earlier. Many stalls were pretty much the same.
