Latte and Coffee

Doutor Houjicha Latte

Doutor had a houjicha latte campaign. I’ve had matcha latte which I think is OK. Though I like matcha tea, I enjoy houjicha the most! I think it’s just a fantastic roasted flavor and I love it any time of day, hot or iced. More so than sencha or genmaicha. This latte did not disappoint. It tasted delicious. Especially since it was a chilly rainy day out. It was sweeter than I expected but, then again, I don’t drink the super sweet Starbucks beverages either. :deco13: So I’m just not used to it.



Caffe Veloce coffee

This cafe chain, Caffe Veloce, was literally next to our hotel and opened pretty early. Tons of seating with a refined sort of European cafe atmosphere at this particular one. Loads of seating with a laid back “come & go as you please” vibe. Went here a few times as a morning pit stop.

This is their Café au lait and Primo Cafe which has soft serve ice cream on top.

    Oh my goodness, I’m dying. I wish I can drink coffee. I had to stop when I found out I am lactose intolerant. I’m still trying to get used to drinking soy milk, too (although I hear that I shouldn’t drink too much soy these days either).

      I feel for ya. Have you tried Rice Dream? I prefer it over soy or coconut milk or almond milk. Well I say I. I mean MY STOMACH lol

    omg, can’t really imagine how the houjicha latte might taste like.
    houjicha reminds me of oolong tea so i can’t think of it tasting sweet.
    does it goes with sugar that well?

    your pictures are always so fabulous :)
    what camera are you using? and also do you use
    any photo editting software? if so what kind??
    would you mind doing post about all your camera and lenses you use :)?

    All the lattes looks so yummy! The only coffe that i drink is mochaccino, because we don’t have the latte drinks here lol Or iced cappuccino. I made a matcha latte with green tea, i liked, but i still need to find matcha powder…

    yum yum yum yum yum yum yum!! coffee with soft serve ice cream on it? AMAZING!

    Wow, those look so delicious.
    And I belong to the lactose intolerant bandwagon as well, so I can’t get lattes easily, though many cafes are beginning to offer de-lactosed milk, soy/rice/coconut milk isn’t as popular here yet. Or if I get black coffee, I ask for evaporated milk.

    And reading the question about your camera, so basically you made the settings while taking the pic.
    I’m so bad at taking photos that makes me think it will take time to take the pics, but it’s all about getting used to the controls and stuff, right?

    • jenny says:

      Yeah the Pen has an option for control over all aspects. Usually I just take a moment to set it and am good until I change location or something. But I can also change to any ART filters quickly so I’ll do that sometimes too. The more I use it the more I get a feel for the settings needed for certain scenes.

    Also, I recently get the Pen EP3, after dreaming of owning a Pen since you posted about getting yours last year! 8′D
