I hate going to bed and I hate getting up. Obviously, my life is a mess.
On a related note, last week Relative Dave tipped me to Norfolk Coffee & Tea Co. and now I have yet another fine local shop from which to purchase quality coffee beans. Apparently this shop has been on 18th St. since the owner built it in 1960. They are the only supplier in Hampton Roads (that I know of, anyway) that roasts and flavors their own coffee. I bought a Tanzinian dark roast on the recommendation of one of the owners and it is the freshest coffee I have ever tasted (at the meager price of $5.99/lb., no less!) I can’t believe I am just now discovering this place. 1960!?! Where the hell have I been? It’s obviously been here longer than every other coffee shop in the area I frequent! I feel so out of it!
Here’s a link to their review page on Yelp
And here are some directions to help you get there: Norfolk Coffee & Tea Co.
That coffee was fantastic! We definitely need to go together so I can take a look at their whole leaf teas.
