First, the name. Earth Cafe? No, who needs another one of those (no offense to Electric Earth in Madison which still holds a comfy-chaired spot in my heart)? URTH Caffe. Cheesy? Maybe, but I still took notice of it when first blazing the trail to Beverly Hills.
Second, patio! Enjoying a nice cup of tea or coffee under the sun? What did you say, I can bring a newspaper with me? And there's no winter here? Every one of my unemployed mornings have suddenly been planned.
Third, healthy? If you've got to savor that freshly brewed coffee every morning to feed your caffeine addiction, it might as well be organic. This is as healthy as coffee is going to get folks.
Fourth, timing. I've been driving past this place for three months now wishing it were closer to the office for lunch. Wishing it were closer to my apt to justify. But today, because of a misfortune yesterday, I had to be in Beverly Hills bright and early. Being that it's the day after St Patrick's Day made a coffee stop before seeing any work related anything all the more important.
I cradled my little unmarked to-go cup with great anticipation. After taking in the creamy caffeinated drink through scent, I slowly sipped my honey vanilla strong soy latte to my lips to experience my first burnt tongue thanks to Urth. But only a small part of my tongue got screwed by impatience, the rest got to enjoy one of the most amazing morning drinks I've ever had.
My only complaint is that it was too soon gone. Nothing else.
Anyone who comes to visit will undoubtedly be dragged here.
Anyone who did something stupid and needs to apologize now knows what to bring me.
