Cafe Ladro is overrated. My chai was gross and my friend's frozen vanilla latte was gross.
And some general questions for the world: Why is it that when you order a chai tea, people get you a chai tea latte? And why is it that when they make said chai tea latte, they use chai tea syrup instead of chai tea?
Despite my bad Fremont coffee experience, I did enjoy the vintage shopping there. The underground vintage mall and the useless junk store didn't disappoint--I got a handful of jewelry (six necklaces and eight earrings) for $1.
We ate at the PCC Deli, which has everything (but still can't beat Portland's Elephant Delicatessen) and was delicious. I also had my first experience with the troll. Can you believe that I've lived in Seattle for fifteen years and I've never seen the troll before?
Also, while driving in Maple Leaf the other day, I passed a sign that read "Cloudcity Coffee." I'm gonna check it out ASAP. Today, though, I think I'm gonna go to the coffee exhibit at the Burke.
