Culture Expresso Bar

Another week, and another attempt in search of good coffee. This time we find ourselves at Culture Expresso Bar, run by a guy from Down Under - expectations were high. Reviews even put this place as one of the few "serious" coffee bars in midtown.

Culture Expresso Bar
It's always a great feeling seeing the nice little touches they place... definitely cute seeing the 3 cups positions right above the pipes. I do wonder how often they get knocked down??

The other nice touch... playing old school music on LD!!

Pastries!
It's breakfast (late breakfast), and how can you say no to croissants... especially when you have multiple choices!!! I ended up settling for the ham and cheese - and was definitely yummy!

Latte
As per usual, I am still ordering my latte... at least this place only has 1 size!
The downside... the place isn't that big (as with every place here), and there wasn't enough space to sit down and had to resort to getting take away... The taste, well expectation was high - but for whatever reason, it didn't live up to expectations. It wasn't as bad as all the other general coffee places, but it did lack flavour and taste. Tasted watered-down like most coffees... I do wonder whether sitting down in store would make it taste any different...
