    hi neo,

    I will check espresso quality in Hong Kong in October :)

    Do you have any particular espresso bar to recommend??

    City with a lot of potential I think! I remember reading a 2006 survey that says that HK'ers lead the world with their belief that Chain Based Coffee (aka SBux etc) is far more favored than the Independents. I actually see this as a big positive- the market is there for sure, and will just need to be pioneered by someone

    I know what you mean Neo, I am living in another part of Southeast Asia where the behaviour is exactly the same... but with the difference that the general understanding of specialty coffee here is not too good either.

    Its pretty much the same here to be honest. We and a few other pioneer roasters are doing the hard yards... we are not doing it to get rich for sure, no kidding!
