“Its super bomb here, nice and smooth with a slight almond taste to it.”

A regular later in the evening, Roger favored this North Park coffee lounge's hot white chocolate with whipped cream over coffee to avoid late-night caffeine, calling it smooth with a slight almond taste; he also liked the big dessert menu and the mix of couch seating and outdoor patio.
