2013 is the Year of the Snake (Serpent) in the Japanese and Chinese Calendars!
No wonder that Saori san made a new cappucino last time I visited Patina in Aoik Ku, Shizuoka City to commemorate the new year!

A beautiful (delicious?) snake and a little design I will explain later!

SN3O3139

saori san must have experimented for quite some time before succeeding with these exquisite coils!

SN3O3130

I don’t think snakes smile so much!

SN3O3131

She went as far as drawing the Chinese character “巳” for “Snake” which represents the sixth term in the 12-year cycle Chinese Calendar!

More coming soon!

Here is the latest creation by Saori Chan at Patina Bistro in Aoi-Ku, Shizuoka City: Tulip Cappucino!

SN3O3043

Although some friends it reminds them of a loving heart, Saori insisted it was a tulip!

SN3O3044

At least the leaves should convince you it is a flower!

SN3O3045

I just don’t know how Saori san can achieve such detailed design!

SN3O3046

Whatever you drink the tulip would not disappear!

Insistent love? LOL

“Leafy” Cappucino at Patina in Shizuoka City!

patina is very probably the most authentic French-style bistro/cafe in the whole of Shizuoka prefecture!
Not only they serve reasonably-priced yummy food at lunch and dinner, it is one of those rare (in japan) places where you can sit by a coffee and read a magazine at your ease any time of the day.

I just love their cappucinos.
They come in different patterns on requests but I just love that very creamy version with a leaf pattern!
So nice and so cute (even to a macho French male!)!

Don’t forget to drink up the leaf in the right direction!
