Good Coffee Times ~ Pre Opening Party, Cognoscenti Coffee Culver City

It’s been great for coffee lovers in Los Angeles, many coffee bar openings lately, and I am quite happy about that, but this grand opening is the one that truly makes me the happiest.

Here are a few images from the December 1st., pre opening party of Cognoscenti Coffee. Great to see how LA’s coffee community comes together and support each other in such a nice way.

Best coffee, best music, best tacos, best people, awesome space, and lots of love for CogCoffee!

Good times!

Awesome coffee line up.

Things I like ~ It’s about finding inspiration along the journey… Wayfare Magazine

A couple of months ago I came across a tweet from someone I follow on Twitter where she pointed to this magazine, I followed the link and immediately fell in love with its content, layout and amazing photography. Wayfare is a beautifully designed magazine with a focus on travel. If you have time go ahead and take a look, I have the feeling that you are going to love it too.

Wayfare Magazine’s Mission:

“We recognize that travel is not defined by how many miles you cover. It’s about finding inspiration along the journey and celebrating the everyday moments. It’s about the spirit of discovery — breaking out of your routine to unwind, connect, and learn. It’s this desire to go, to celebrate, and to experience that drives everything we do.”

“Do it right, roast it light.” ~ Lord Windsor Roasters ~ Alamitos Beach, Long Beach, Ca

Most likely I won’t be traveling anywhere far this summer, therefore I am happily being a traveler in L.A. and its surrounding cities, and it’s nice to find great new coffee bars, bakeries and eateries that are coming near or not too far from home. Do you know of any that I should try? Please let me know!

I love this coffee bar in Long Beach!

Last Saturday I had the opportunity to visit this new (three months old) coffee bar in the Alamitos Beach neighborhood of Long Beach. Beautiful coffee bar, very comfortable layout, a simple but complete coffee menu, great ambiance, friendly people, and most importantly good coffee! I will most definitely return.
Lord Windsor is owned by the husband and wife team of Wade and Lindsay Ries Windsor.

They roast their coffee on site, their motto is “do it right, roast it light” and it shows.
