Coffee General..........Its a shore thing!

Back in July my New York Fluffynotsofluffy Corespondent Izzy was out in New Zealand. He gave me the lead on this place! His Mom would probably say it was her lead but we kids know whats up too!
Located in my mamma's old stomping grounds in Birkenhead on Hinemoa Street this little cafe did great fluffys.
My mamma was buzzing out as we walked in they were playing "ninjasonik" (a group from where she used to live in Bushwick in Brooklyn). Pretty funny that a New Yorker recommended this place and that they were playing a Brooklyn underground band when we walked in.
Anyway onto the important stuff...... The Fluffy stuff.
Firstly I need to point out a few things!

  1. The communal table. It was a great space to place Sprocket (My Dog and best friend) on the table so i could see him. Don't call the health department just yet he's not a real dog silly! There was a lovely lady sitting opposite us who was gushing at how cute I was. Little does she know I'm a little ratbag!
  2. The walls are adorned in cool paintings (No photographic evidence provided here you will have to go see for your self!). 
  3. There are lots of Sciency looking glass thing on the shelves. My mamma referred to them as Hipster coffee kits. Luckily they are out of reach! 
The Fluffy.......
 Good amount of Chocolate Sprinkles
 Fluffy enough to stay on the spoon!
 Going back for More!

Not too hot to drink the Dregs!

Pretty good all round, Mamma said the coffee was good too! This is good as she will bring me back!

Nothing goes better with fluffys than "Randon Acts of Baking"........

My amazingly talented Aunty Pingu aka Inga Boyd is currently embarking on a month of "Giftism" She is baking and gifting it to people on her train ride into Wellington each Morning! Such a great idea. She's kind of like the December Baking Fairy. Follow her journey each day as she "Promotes Joy through sharing baking with strangers" http://giftism.wordpress.com/
The best thing about baking is licking the spatula. If only i lived in Wellington!!!
