Smooth Coffee and Tea Leaves

Fact...Melbourne is rampant with coffee that is too hot and tea that is palid and tasteless. Yarraville is no exception, but is not a lost cause. Fidamas will do you a 'sloppy latte' upon request, that is a latte with the milk not too hot. Some coffee drinkers recognise that milk should never be the temperature of tea, rather it must stay creamy and rich and hence demands a lower temperature. Fidamas will also give you tea leaves, not a bag. It's a simple pleasure, but one wirth adhering to where flavour is concerned. If you had been to a tea factory you would understand why loose leaf tea is so much better.
