For those of you that don't know I am a special ed sub in Sugar Land. Shit is bananas. I found myself stopping in for coffee at Minuti Coffee on Highway 6 a few weeks ago to meet a friend. It is a new, but familiar coffee bar specializing in espresso drinks made with Caffe Molinari beans, a brand out of Modena, Italy that has coffee shops all over Europe.
This shit is legit. Very good espresso. The environment in Minuti is a bit annoying, filled with a bunch of Sugar Land business men and students putting off a, "I'm cultured now" vibe while staring into a blank Word doc on their new Macbooks. Pshhaaaaaaa....They also have your standard muffins and tarts, as well as donuts which aren't too shabby. They recently added an adult drink line-up which includes my beloved Italian export, Peroni.What keeps me comin is their Bioespresso Yogurt drink. It is a frappe drink with a few shots of the dark stuff, ice, and vanilla yogurt instead of your traditional cream or milk. This drink does two things for me: 1) Ends the struggle at the end of a blended drink, where you are forced to remove the lid and stir the ice around, looking like a little fat, desperate kid breathing all heavy and 2) It is an endless mystery. What I mean is it is like the first time I had generic Post Bran Cereal. I had some, didn't know if I liked it or not, so I kept eating it. Every sip is an epic battle between taste buds and "favorites folder" of the brain.
If you are in Sugar Land, go try it. If you are in town, rumor has it they are to open a location later this year in the mid-town area.

ReplyDeleteShit is bananas, son. Bananas. I think also we are two out of three people that are not from the east coast that like Peroni. People would like violently yell at me if I told them I liked Peroni in Germany.
