Tim What is your position on disposable coffee cups? Which is better, foam or paper and why do you prefer one over the other? 0 Reply November 26, 2007

Chris Tingom Tim, I prefer porcelain mugs and ask for it more often than anything. But if I have to go with disposable I like paper cups. Foam ones feel like they’re going to come apart on me. Chris 0 Reply November 26, 2007

Isadora Today is the first time I’ve looked at your blog. Thanks for the content. When I go to a coffee place–I want a great cup of coffee (not the over-roasted mud that Starbuck’s serves)and I want a comfortable environment that makes me want to stay awhile…to read or write or have an interesting conversation…that means comfortable table and chairs or comfy (and clean) couches or easy chairs. Some appetizing and fresh pastries or bagels are always appreciated. I want friendly people who smile and converse when they take my order. I live in north Scottsdale and that’s not easy to find. Cave Creek Coffee is teeming with 50+ middle aged Harley bikers–especially on the weekends. Blue Sky in Carefree has interesting environment–though the coffee is just ok and the food…well it depends on the day. Keep it up sweetie. Please include ambiance info i.e. comfort/light/friendliness in your future comments along with the coffee info. 0 Reply January 4, 2008
