Kickin' off my blog with a shout out to one of my favorite coffee hot spots in San Francisco, Saint Frank!
Had to stop by for an almond macadamia latte (pictured below). The espresso here is strong and rich...definitely more flavorful than cheaper coffee spots (ahem...you know the chains I am referring to...which I guess aren't really that much cheaper from a consumer standpoint). Anyway, they also know how to steam their milk so it complements the espresso. I am a HUGE fan when a barista knows how to correctly steam non-dairy milk and, in this case, Saint Frank wins. One word...or rather two words: creamy and perfection.
Aside from excellent barista skills, I really love this place because it is bright, contemporary, and in a perfect location on Polk Street near Union Street; not to mention, it's a great spot for people watching! Note: they only have free WiFi on the weekdays, not the weekends. So be prepared to be social or read a book, if you're there alone; laptops will not be useful if you try to bring one over the weekend.
Go here...now!
