Less and More Coffee ii — Restaurant in Portland

The coffee was absolutely lovely! I got the custard coffee (aka Cloud Cream Coffee?), which was fantastic! This hot coffee drink was delicious, beautifully brewed, and interesting, the topping was cool and delicate and only a little bit sweet. Somehow it walked the line of being an interesting coffee drink while still being coffee-focused. My partner got the Maple Oat Latte, which was similarly well-balanced and delicious. Also, the mochi donut was delicate and tasty (churro-inspired?) and the brownie was deliciously deep chocolate without feeling heavy. (It was also squishy/bouncy in a way that suggests it’s a mochi brownie.) And the barista was super nice. All around very lovely. Only knocked a star on atmosphere cuz it’s kind of a weird open kiosk by the door of a building, but it also had a takeaway window for...

Enjoyme Latte (with oat milk)– An iced latte with two shots of espresso, simple syrup, house-made injoelme cream, kinako (roasted soybean powder), condensed milk, and heavy cream. The oat milk made it extra creamy, but the espresso flavor wasn’t as strong.

Iced Mocha Cloud Custard (one with regular milk, one with oat milk)– Made with 60% cocoa chocolate, two shots of espresso, and milk, topped with house-made vanilla bean custard. The oat milk version tasted even milkier, making the espresso less prominent.

A peaceful spot to enjoy some high quality coffee and very unique milky drinks. Unlike their original location, this one features a pour over menu of different single origin coffees with different flavor profiles. Each pour over I ordered over several visits were well brewed with a clear flavor, and some were truly exceptional (Colombia Finca El Diviso). If you've been to their original location you are probably familiar with their other drinks. I personally love the ssuk latte. Also known as mugwort in English or yomogi in Japanese, this flavor is hard to come by so seeing it in drink form was a real treat! If you like yomogi mochi (the green colored mochi with earthy herbaceous flavor, not to be confused with matcha flavored mochi) then you will...
