    I went back to Northside Social in Falls Church City (since I was too hung over to record it on New Year’s Day) and had a triple oat milk latte in my personal travel mug cuz one can do that at a cafe like NSS-FC. I also recently received my official #coffeeneuring2018 patch, my 5th year of completing that challenge. @CGBanimal graced coffee with her presence and we discussed my secret recipe for morning oat parfaits.

    I then rode to pick up some art in Farmington (near Shirlington) and stopped at Best Buns for a hot Passion tea in the same travel mug (which they kindly rinsed out with hot water), along with a chocolate-banana muffin.

    While there, I noticed for the first time that the mural in the dining room next door includes a woman and a bicycle at an outdoor cafe.

    I went by two more shops, Dolcezza and Wydown Coffee Bar, both on 14th St, NW, but I didn’t have my list with me and missed them.

    I joined the #MMPC regulars for breakfast before journeying abroad for work, and had the bottomless cup of coffee at Mike’s Deli along with 2 eggs (over easy), pancakes and whole wheat toast. The coffee was a truly unremarkable drip that I believe should be eligible as a tie breaker “swamp” coffee should I find myself in that situation at the end of this year’s FS competition. Otherwise it’s the best 50 cent deal in town if don’t care what your coffee tastes like.

    Yep, still have three days to do the remaining four. Hopefully I won’t get blown of the bridges crossing the Potomac. ;)

    Google really wants you to go in the alley entrance at Qualia Coffee on Georgia Ave, NW, even with a front door and two bike racks out front. I enjoyed a cortado anyway.

    #FS2019coffeeride side bet #15, Philz Coffee on Adams Mill Rd, NW. I was a little disappointed they only did pour overs so I could not stay consistent with a cortado. Coffee was still good.

    Out of the 15, I liked The Royal on Florida Ave, NW in Ladroit Park the best. Interesting building, good coffee, good pastry, good staff. I enjoyed all of my coffees.
