A while back while hanging out in the Sumner Beach part of Christchurch, New Zealand I stopped in at a Coffee Culture (local chain) and had a mocha that hit the spot. Was enough coffee for two, let alone one! 🙂

Traditional Cuban burger done right. A Chicken Frita topped with lemon mayo, shoe string fries and a sunny side up egg. - A large side of garlic-cilantro fries was in order as well. Ann Arbor foodie heaven in the summer fresh air. Was excited to get back to my favorite spot in town! - #fritabatidos #freshingredients #chickensandwich #cubanfood #sunnysideup #garlicfries #shoestringfries #eeeeeats #foodgasm #foodstagram #eater #foodnetwork #travelchannel #gadv #lonelyplanet #nomnom #foodphotography #sandwichporn #AnnArbor #bestfoodannarbor #annarboreats #annarborfoodie #destinationannarbor #umsocial #goblue #puremichigan #puremittenpride #michiganawesomeEnjoying and resting with the Michigan sunflower beauty.

I visited the Schell Family Farm (@schellfamilyfarmmi) in Pinckney yesterday to see them at their peak. Countless yellow and orange sunflowers dot the farm. Recommended experience. You can walk through the fields, cutting one or more sunflowers to take home. So beautiful! 🌻🌻🌻 Checkout my new sunflower photo post.

Love Mocha’s…that one looks really good!
Me too! It was tasty. 🙂 Glad I stopped.
Mmmm…..looks so very Yummy! I Love love love Mocha!
It was, the perfect treat. They make good mochas there! 🙂
It’s so huge! I love big wide cups like that. 🙂 Will be brewing a mocha myself shortly. 🙂
It definitely took me awhile to finish. Gave me a chance to soak in the atmosphere of Coffee Culture and to spend more time in Sumner Beach. 🙂 Cool beans! How did the mocha turn out? 🙂
Looks delicious.
Thanks, it was! Mocha-deliciousness. 🙂
Yay for NZ coffee 🙂
Yeay. Need to checkout more of the NZ coffee scene next time there! Any suggestions? 🙂
I’m from Auckland, so can’t say much about Christchurch, sorry! I do recommend having a flat white though. Us kiwis are ace at that 😉
Yes yes, do like the Flat White, yum! 🙂
