This Has Legs

 A vision of things to come - Giraffe Stop at King's Cross Station.  Fast takeaway service as well as some sit down space.

 Giraffe (sorry, Tesco) is on to a winner with this concept in high footfall locations.

Wow the Cyclists

Flash, Beep & Vibrate

What cafe do you get when you cross Taylor St Baristas and Tesco.  Answer: Harris & Hoole.  Interesting use of pagers even when the order is for just one small latte.  It was a good coffee when it was ready.

Rolls of brown paper signage

Strong evidence for home baking

Lots of messages

Cakes and sandwiches all the better for open display and ambient temperature

Red (Chocolate) Roses

Three special ladies in my life - wife and twin teenage daughters - will get Carluccios chocolate roses and a short break to Barcelona - anyone know some great cafes there?

"Marry Me?" cakes and cupcakes at Dobbies garden centre cafe at Ashford - this is one very switched-on cafe operation and a treasure trove of future blog posts.  Tesco, who owns Dobbies, is on to a winner.  Will Dobbies will sort out Tesco cafes one day?

You just cannot get enough heart shapes - Krispy Kreme's doughnuts and Millies cookies.  I prefer the chocolate roses.
