Dessert Coffees

three_coffeesThese are not really my cup of tea (at least not first choice), so to speak, but they are very pretty.

While working at the countertop of a coffee bar at Mercado San Miguel, in Madrid, (drinking my usual café cortado) I watched the fellow at the counter making them for some customers.

It was a rather elaborate process, and quite fascinating to watch. It might seem odd that I can work in such an environment, but sometimes I like to have a change of surroundings, and the type of work I was doing (reflecting, planning, and running through a technique I’m trying to develop) suited this setting quite nicely.
