No cafe activity today. Planning a walk around Holywell Bay on Sunday and I feel sure a cafe will be involved somewhere, and very possibly lunch, so watch this space.
In the meantime I’m contemplating developing my own entirely subjective scoring system. I would be interested in any of my readers’ views about how this might work.So here’s my thinking. It could be very simple , like stars or rosettes, but with little coffee cups representing shots. So an okay place would be a single shot, a good place would be a double shot, and a splendid place would be an extra shot. Easy to administer, easy to understand, but a bit boring and probably already been done.
Or – it could be much more complicated with classifications in the labels along the lines of:
Instant Coffee NEVER GO THERE
Single shot Americano OKAY
Double shot Mocha Good but mixed
Double shot latte Always a good choice
Extra Shot Cappucino Brilliant
Affogato So good you want to move in
Tortuous, very subjective, relying entirely on my not very reliable memory and probably completely incomprehensible to anyone but me. At the moment I’m veering towards the tortuous and subjective.
Alternatively, the scoring system could be cake driven:
Bought Battenburg NEVER go there
Pre-pack muffin Okay
Bakewell tart Good but mixed
Carrot Cake Always a good choice
Millionaire’s Shortbread Brilliant
Deborah’s Rhubarb Cake* So good you want to move in
*This means nothing to anyone except me, and Deborah, but suffice it to say it is the best cake I’ve ever eaten, although Annette’s Carribean Cake comes a pretty close second and you, dear reader, could try that at the Clubhouse Cafe in Gwinear. This product placement has not been paid for. (Sadly).
OR – we could go the simple but not very exciting way with cake slices. Or tiny cup-cakes. Again, I veer towards the over-complication.
I need help. I need coffee. And maybe cake.
