Bellavista Santiago-The coffee hunt goes on...

Even though South America is meant to be the source of great coffee it is bloody hard to find a great cup while travelling.

I have had to re-learn the lesson each time i.e espresso is the only type that will come close to satisfying the taste buds honned on NZ coffee.

I have been wandering around Bellavista and there are great design stores, music places, galleries, even a coffee shop but I can't find great coffee! Arghhh!!

I at last found an impersonation of one in a little courtyard with walls up to the sky, and covered in vines. It had a gallery attached with some interesting bronze casts and a design store in the cafe.
