liberty market

just recently i rediscovered liberty market.  it's an interesting place because it's a restaurant but they also have an espresso bar and wifi.  i first went there for breakfast with a friend and didn't care for their menu that much.  but then one day we decided to try dinner and i really enjoyed it.  it is simple food but fresh and often with a little twist. what got me coming back again was when i was trying to find a place to just hang out and write on my blog.  i often am hungry around mid afternoon and of course i need a cup of coffee.  there are so few places that have everything you need, food, coffee, internet connection.  liberty market is the place for me.  in fact this is where i am right now.

the barista i've met there is a wonderful lady who actually made me a coradito for free.  she is very talkative and down to earth. i was hooked from then on.  that's what brings customers back in my opinion, warmth and friendliness.

i do have to warn you though on saturday nights they get super busy after 5.  i was a little sad to find out that they shoo all the computer people to the window bar stools.  honestly i wouldn't have minded so much but when the lady, i'm guessing the manager, asked hubby and i to move, not even before all the tables were full and while we were still eating our dessert, i was a little perturbed to say the least.  nevertheless, i'm back here today and enjoying my time on my computer.  so far no one is telling me to move.  =)

here are the things that i love about this place: they have cupcakes! i've never tried them but they have them, every time i come they have a flavor of the day.  they have awesome lighting (lots of windows), they serve lunch until 5 and dinner after that, and they have an extensive espresso bar.  on top of the usual espresso bar, they offer thai tea and ca phe (vietnamese coffee), and the kicker, they actually have iced toddy (cold brewed coffee).  for those that like to drink, beer is available and they also have wine by the glass or bottle.

oh and a little side note, the bathrooms are really fun.  ok, i know this is strange but they got real creative with this and i really admire that.   i will post photos soon...
