Bean Green

As you may know by now, I am passionate about excellent coffee, which is one of the reasons I owned a quirky coffee shop for a couple of years!So I was delighted to visit the Bean Green Coffee Roastery in Davenport Durban yesterday. It's a long time since I have had such a stunning cup of coffee!It is one of those places that intrigue me. There are a lot of reasons why it could not work - a limited menu, few staff and simple decor. But that is exactly why it does work. The place was crowded, the service really friendly and of course, the coffee was excellent! The background music comes from a record player! When we left, some of the customers greeted us too, and told us we must come back again! A lovely vibe all round. It definitely has the x-factor!
Coffee at the Corner Cafe in Glenwood, Durban is fun enough, but this time we had the added delight of being surrounded by Claire Regnard's works of art. Her lasercut metal work is very appealing and I am planning on taking my husband there soon to have a look!Visit Clare's web sight to see more about her shop Amoeba Lighting and Living and the work she does!

Just love the functional and elegant aspects of the Corner Cafe! Somehow the pile of serviettes being freshly ironed adds to the atmosphere! Have a look at their brand new web sight!
