Snaps: Red Beanbag Cafe, Publika

You’d probably be wondering why I titled this post as one from the Snaps series, rather than Eat. Just like one of my Snaps post on Artisan Roast, TTDI, I posted a photo set of the pictures I took in that cafe and I’m doing almost the similar thing here. I was at Artisan the last time with a friend and we were there for quite a while. That’s why I had time to take pictures and what not. I do not just barge into a cafe and start snapping pictures of the baristas making coffee. I pretty much ask for permission first. 😀

Anyway, I was at Publika and I had time to kill before my next dinner appointment, so I decided to spend a couple of hours at a cafe. It’s such a lovely thing to do, to spend some time alone in a nice cafe where the environment is laid back and pretty much chilled. There are many cafes around Publika, but I decided to head over to Red Beanbag because of two reasons. One, I love the place (been there for breakfast & dinner). Two, because I saw this adorable cute guy from my last dinner visit there and I wanted to pop by, in hopes to see him again.

I was there around tea time, slightly after three in the afternoon. I wanted to order something light, along with a drink but everything on the menu itself looks too heavy for me. I ended up picking Kooky Berry and a cup of Hot Chocolate. 

When my Hot Chocolate drink arrived, I was pleasantly surprised with the art on the drink. For a start, I hadn’t been expecting anything on it but then after I placed my order, I knew the waiter said something to the barista regarding my order. I’m guessing he asked her to do a fancy art for me. That made my day. 🙂

I was there for some time (trying to fix my domain, as I have just gotten the domain then) when I saw another barista making coffee. Like in Artisan Roast, TTDI, I loved taking pictures of the baristas making coffee, it’s so fascinating. So, I asked if I could photograph him making them. And ta-da!
