  • will pretty much do anything for a caÌ€ pheÌ‚ sữa

    Having scored Vietnamese coffee filters at Tap Phong (360 Spadina), I set about making coffee in the most roundabout way.

    First, fire up the Kelly Kettle. I got this joy of thermodynamic efficiency at the Sally Anne unused for $5. I’m feeding it shredded receipts and cardboard.

    Whoa! Flareup!

    It gets pretty hot in there. This is the first time I used it without singeing hair.

    But the food is so good.
