Know a place?

We're genetically programmed to avoid places with bad water. So I dig up the dirt on the best and worst coffee around Cape Town and South Africa.
Been somewhere good? Got a new menu? Find DR on Facebook, leave a comment, and I'll don my hat and investigate.

Coco Latte, Sea Point ★

Cappuccino with cream R22 (Lavazza)
A back of mouth bitter with thin,dry coffee flavour, topped by a spritz of tinned whip. Neither coco nor latte, the brew has some beanniness quickly lost in the channel of water.
This is clearly a Lavazza outlet with big signs glaring desperately, like sitting in a commercial.
Middle-of-the road cafe faire with pizzaesque milky omellettes.
Manager loves to be loudly sarcastic with his staff, ruining whatever sliver of atmosphere the main rd joint had. (I do love sarcasm, but treating staff like idiots in public is criminal). Then he called himself a god to his staff, lordy lord!
