Simon James is managing Headquarters cafe at 367 Collins St Melbourne, so drop by for a great coffee.

I'm also teaching Milk Texturing & Latte Art at William Angliss, so register for the class if you want to learn how to pour great art as seen below.

Otherwise, Simon recommends the following cafes around Melbourne:

City:

• Headqurters - 367 Collins St Melbourne (in the foyer of the Optus building). This may be the headquarters of the "Coffee HQ" chain, but expect to get a real cafe quality coffee. They've got a La Marzocco FB70 and they know how to use it!

Canterbury:

• Maling Room - Andrew used to own Maltitude in the city. He and Marika now operate this great cafe in the wonderful Maling Rd village. They have a 3 group Synesso with various Mazzer grinders (WOW!!!). The latte art is still great, and Andrew still hosts coffee geek get togethers as part of his ongoing contribution to the coffee community in Melbourne.

South Melbourne

• St. Ali - Yarra Place (East of Clarendon St. and very near Coles). Mark Dundon roasts his own coffee and features some fine Single Origins as well as some great blends. He has a 3 group Synesso supported by a 3 phase Robur and other quality grinders. It doesn't get much better than that - Barista heaven!

St Kilda East:

• Batch Espresso - Carlisle St. St Kilda East. Jason uses Coffee Supreme and runs it through a La Marzocco Linea. Truly great coffee!

Monash Uni:

• Coffee HQ and Headquarters @ Menzies- They've got 3 La Marzocco FB70 machines at HQ in the Union building for some awesome coffee firepower!
