It has been a long and fruitful day for me. I’ll not discuss the details but it was all worth it. I should say work-life balance. My friends and I went to try the hottest talk of the town coffee hangout, Doppio. What’s good about the place? I liked the ambience and how the place is setup. You can opt to stay at the lobby or upstairs wherein they have Japanese tables, and a couch. We ordered Antonio’s Choco Mocha Java (best-seller) and Taco Dip Grande (crispy dough sticks served with the special several-layered dip that includes chili beef and cheese). Their best-seller 16oz. frappe costs Php109.00 only plus friendly crews!
Out of curiosity, I saw Irene (owner of the resto) and asked what the meaning of Doppio is? She answered “double”. Meaning, Doppio in espresso is a double shot, extracted using a double filter basket in the portafilter. These results in 60ml of drink, double the amount of a single shot espresso. More commonly called a standard double; it is a standard in judging the espresso quality in barista competitions. Doppio is Italian, meaning "double". (wiki). To all coffee addicts, add Doppio on your next session. And now am dozing off! G'nyt!
