Hole-in-the-wall with a smile...! A story of today!
✨"Behind the counter there was light in the form of a smile.
I ordered a cappuccino which used to be quite good there, both for the quality of the coffee and the quality of the milk they used and they accompanied these coffees with tiny cookies that were very tasty.
Her name is Yaxelis, the one with the beautiful smile, I will say, as the ancients used to say. She complained: “It's just that it's so empty here”. Yaxelis understands the spirit of sociability in a café. I instantly adored her." 
Hojaldre Café: A Hidden Oasis in the Heart of San Cristóbal
✨"In the search for my new phone, I came across an unexpected corner in the recently inaugurated multiplaza shopping mall in Barrio Obrero, San Cristobal. Hojaldre Café appeared before my eyes like an oasis in the middle of the urban bustle, promising a respite from the chaos of year-end shopping.
As I walked through its doors, I was enveloped by a warm and welcoming atmosphere. The dim lighting, the aroma of freshly ground coffee and the delicate décor created the perfect setting for a much-needed break. Without hesitation, I ordered a vanilla latte, whose smoothness and sweetness masterfully balanced the intensity of the espresso. I accompanied my coffee with a classic chocolate chip cookie, with a crunchy outside and soft centre, ideal for those with a sweet tooth." 
Coffee, friendship and stories. The right combination.
✨"As we drove down the road, we stopped at a spot with a breathtaking view. We were a bit married, so we stopped for a break from the drive and the ascos. I pulled out my little steel thermos and poured two cups of hot coffee for both of us. The aroma of the coffee filled the air and made us feel even more calm and relaxed." 
Moments with a delicious coffeee in La panatteria
✨"I can do everything accompanied by a moment of tranquillity and of course with a delicious coffee, this way the ideas flow more, and in this small space, I was delighted with how I could ensure that these children could receive and learn from the knowledge that each teacher wanted to impart. It especially fills me to see my children in the classroom grow and see them smile. And while with every sip of my favourite coffee, I reflect and organize my ideas in my beautiful profession." 
Getting to know the coffee shop "Café de Antaño".
✨"The name of the coffee shop is the same as the name of the coffee "Café de Antaño", a product dedicated to our city called Cumaná de Antaño.
The coffee is sold in various presentations: ground and beans, from 100 g to 1 kg. The only thing missing was a place to go to taste it too, and the place is spectacular.
It is located in the historic centre of the city, in a house that preserves all the old facade on the outside of that Cumaná of yesteryear, but inside with a modern and cosy touch." 
Coffee at the Supermarket: Positives and a Negative
✨"I opted for a black coffee, while my friend chose a cappuccino. A good thing about the supermarket is that if you buy an adult meal costing over £5, your children can eat for free throughout the day. Even though, supermarket meals are usually cheap it's good they are supporting families as the price of food shopping has gone up so much. It's good the children are getting at least one good meal a day." 
Grand Re-opening of the “Plaza Oro”.
✨"That bakery had been neglected for a long time, ugly, like abandoned, but they changed the owner and now they remodelled it and it was very nice.
Besides everything they sell is delicious, the different types of bread, especially the ham bread, the variety of sweets and coffees." 
Starbucks mugs and coffee beans
✨"But these items cost hundreds of dollars that I find too expensive. I used to have a French press similar to the one I saw in Starbucks which only cost half the price that their selling. This only goes to show that the huge factor for the expensive price of their merchandise is their branding. Had there been no "Starbucks" label on the mugs, it would've been cheaper. But of course, quality also had a factor in their expensive price. It's expected to have good quality or else it might hurt their brand name." 
Coffee Musings | The Long Awaited Coffee with @maryed
✨"Following 
Coffee no matter what
✨"However, coffee shop working is not as good as we desire. The small space forces customers to wait at the door, which is too uncomfortable, especially on hot days like today. In addition, the lack of electricity or an electric generator tends to slow down the service, and this translates into prolonged waiting times.
The same goes for the music they used to play in the place. In the beginning, it was pleasant however genres like reggaeton have taken over every minute in that space."
