weasel coffee
now heres something really cool and interesting. weasel coffee, probably the yummiest coffee you will ever taste. available so far only in the philippines and vietnam. definitely a gourmet coffee not even your fabled starbucks, gloria jeans, ucc, seattles best, etc. can offer.
here is how it works, the native weasel eats the coffee berries and regurgitates it after. locals will soon collect these glorious wastes, clean it and roast it to perfection. wow! you can now make your very own brewed weasel coffee with creamer. how bout a java weasel? or a frappie one with that.
Starbucks coffee helps me keep awake
Once in a week, at least, I have to purchase one or two cup of starbucks coffee on my way home. It is my habits I get used to. I have to get up really early in the morning to get to my work. Sometimes, I don’t have enough sleep at night. So, after 8 hours of hard work, I might feel a little bit of exhausted. A cup of coffee might sustain me until I arrive home. The best coffee I ever tasted is starbucks. I especially love their ice – cold coffee. The frapuccino choices.
The two popular options I used to have are Ice caramel Machiato, and strawberry and creme. They both are my favorite. Although they are a little sweeter than others, they are good for me. The average price for a cup of grande size is approximately $4.00. It seems increased a little. A Veinte size might cost $5.00 or more. Since the economic recession, I reduce the consumption weekly.
Mercato Coffee House scheduled open in BridgeTower, Meridian in early November ‘08
9/25/2008 Mercato Coffee House scheduled open in BridgeTower, Meridian in early November ‘08
The Mercato Coffee house is under construction in the Mercato retail center in the BridgeTower community. The Mercato Coffee House will inhabit the 1500 square feet end cap unit with a drive-thru for convenient service. Mike Cascarano, general manager of the new coffee house, is a home owner in the BridgeTower community and is very excited about the business potential on this side of Meridian, “The pent up demant for services on this side of Meridian is very exciting for a new business, even in this economic environment. There are literally thousands of underserved households that have been established on this side of Meridian in the last decade who are carving the services that they currently are forced to drive through slow traffic to the Eagle corridor or downtown Meridian. Now they can literally walk, bike, or drive with little traffic to enjoy some of the best coffee in the valley.”
The Mercato Coffee House is located at the intersection of Ten Mile Road and McMillan road in Meridian. The Mercato Retail Center is the first phase of a 200 acre mixed use commercial hub that will ultimately encompass all four corners of the Ten Mile and Mc Millan intersection. The hub will include large, medium, and small retail establishments, medical services, office complexes, a gas station and convenience store, and more. Pad sites retail space are currently available and the Ten Mile/McMillan intersection is currently under construction to be signalized with seven and five lanes respectively with a completion dare in October of 2008.

Meridian Coffee House
Meridian Coffeehouse is the student run coffeehouse of the College of William and Mary (a desperate institution). Those who have two quarters to rub together can come have coffee, bum a cigarette, and share a great conversation during their copious social time.
The Meridian is for the elegant onec, those who have read the warnings, who pretend to know twelve tone, who half-heartedly kill roaches, who found a past worth mentioning, who aren’t quite willing to starve. We savor the simple expression of the complex thought.
Chocolate Bean
I’m lucky enough to do a lot of my work via my laptop, so I’ve been looking around for a local coffeeshop with wifi. I’ve been shopping around, and discovered that Borders, Barnes&Noble and Starbucks all charge for internet. (I don’t know if this is a new worldwide trend or if I’m just spoiled by the free wifi in Chinese Starbucks but it’s pretty lame either way.)
Then I discovered The Chocolate Bean. The Chocolate Bean looks a bit like Cafe Zarah in Beijing, with the monochrome modern furniture, but without the odd sandwiches, and with a gourmet chocolate counter and a gelato bar like this one we visited in Rome. It’s like a hip living room.

A Coffee lovers nightmare
I have always loved coffee. Ever since i was little I would steal drinks out of my mothers coffee mug. And I have a boyfriend who is addicted to coffee much more than me. So much that he drinks up to 3 pots a day.
I usally have to have a cup in the moring at work. But I found out the other day that coffee may be what is making my ulcer act up? So what am I to do? I want to heal my ulcer but at the same time I love the coffee. What would hurt me the most? Probably drinking the coffee and having the ulcer stick around.
So I think I will try decaf coffee and see if it is the caffeine that is bothering me. I am hoping that this may be the case and that it really is not the coffee. That would be a coffee lovers nightmare!!!! And I would want to wake up soon.
Senseo Machine
Let me start off by saying I’m not much of a coffee drinker. But I do have a Senseo coffee machine and love it! Every once and awhile senseo has this great offer where you can get a machine free and only pay shipping and handling ($15). I think its a great deal.
The way it works is you put a “pod” into the top of the machine, fill the water in the back and press the red button to heat it for 60 seconds. A minute later, you press the one or two cup feature and it will fill your cup with hot coffee of whichever pod you put in!
Occasionally I’ll pop in a coffee pod, but more often than not, I am inserting a tea bag. The cool thing is you can get away with just using a regular tea bag, not any type of fancy pod type. There is no boiling of water involved or anything. Just a push of the button which I really enjoy, and reccommend.

A cafe that is the German’s equivalent of “Starbucks”. Nice atmosphere and artsy decorated, obviously community hangout establishment. The prices are about half the cost that you would find in a Starbucks. However, the chai tea, was so watered down it just tasted like bad water. Was not impressed. I think I’ll stick to Starbucks since I’m a chai drinker. Rating: 2 stars out of 5.
