Brasil

It’s hard to beat a combination of immaculate weather with a beautiful patio. The only thing that could make it better is a delicious coffee. Let’s see what we get.

Brasil’s vibes are off the charts. It’s the perfect patio to hang with your significant other and read together. Now I do have a confession. The owner has a beautiful bulldog that roams around out here and will give a few non harmful barks when he sees someone receive food. However, I let you all down by not getting a picture. I was too in the moment of admiration.

I asked for a recommendation and was given the Mexican mocha. I like to think that my hispanic side was really showing this day and thus the rec. Fast forward to receiving and imagine my surprise when my first sip elicited an audible “WHAT.” I was expecting that classic mocha chocolate flavor, but instead I got a spicy blast of cayenne that left a little tingle at the throat. I had hot honey pizza before this and the drink is way spicer!

It’s fun and new to drink at first, but it also lacks balance. I love spicy foods, but I want the spice to enhance and work with all the other components of a dish. Specifically for my mocha, I really wanted that chocolate to be pronounced and blend harmoniously with the spice. Instead, it’s too hidden. Still, the novelty and my love of heat got me through to the end.
