Coffee coffee coffee - what better way to start a Sunday?

I am aware a common theme of mine is coffee...but let's be honest, anyone who doesn't drink it cannot be trusted.

There is always a sense of disappointment when accompanying a new acquaintance on the all important FFD (first friend date) in the hope that those early indications of BFF material (i.e. 'shit I wish I had her shoes' and that shared snigger at the dry/sarcastic joke you shared which went over everyone else's head) would blossom into a lifelong friendship. As the waiter takes your order, the potential new sister from another mister exclaims "I'll have a tea thanks, I don't drink coffee". BAMM!!! No matter how many boxes she has ticked, you now know it won't last...she simply can't be trusted! Now don't get me wrong - tea is both magnificent and deserving of it's solid fan base - but it's consumption must be equally shared with it's more potent counterpart (coffee).

I digress... but with this digression comes wonderful news in the form of another Perth coffee review, namely Yelo in Trigg. With the amazing ocean views they could almost get away with serving shitty coffee, but alas they do not. Yelo use Fiori coffee, supporting the green forest alliance and serving all drinks in bio cups. This cafe is probably the closest you can get to feeling like you're down south without the four hour drive. For those non-coffee drinkers, whilst you cannot be trusted (I kid..sort of), Yelo does offer a variety of fresh juices, freshly baked gourmet goodies, books and even surf boards.
