Click on the menus to enlarge.Au Coquelet is located at 2000 University at the corner of Milvia. It's about a seven minute walk from the downtown Berkeley BART station. Parking can be a challenge, but not impossible.It's one of the very few restaurants in Berkeley that is open late. It's open until 1 a.m. on weekdays and 1:30 a.m. on Fridays and Saturdays. It's a great place to go after a play at the Berkeley Repertory Theater and several downtown movie theaters.There are two parts to the restaurant. The front is more of a coffee shop and the back is a more typical restaurant, although there are no servers to take your order. You have to place your order at the cashier.They have daily specials. The food is so-so, but the great thing is that you can sit in the coffee shop part for hours. Th

About CoffeeCoffee has two main varieties or species, Coffea arabica and Coffea canephora or more popularly known as Robusta. Arabica (Coffea arabica) was originally cultivated in the Arabian Peninsula, hence its name. While Robusta (Coffea canephora) is grown in many regions where Arabica would not grow but Robusta has less flavor and contains more caffeine than the Arabica. However, Robusta cont
image by: neogomo The following is a true story: it all happened to a friend of mine who was working for a computer company. His job consisted of receiving the customers’ phone calls and listening to their complaints and various kinds of questions about their electronics merchandise.So one day he picked up a call at his desk. The woman was on the line, upset, and in a complete distress.- Hallo,
Being an avid drinker of coffee, I never could figure out the reason following decaffeinated coffee. People usually drink coffee or espresso for the caffeine fix, so I always wondered as to why anyone would drink decaffeinated coffee. Would it not just defeat the purpose of drinking coffee? However, I finally saw the light and managed to figure out why decaffeinated coffee existed. This helped me

One cold December morning, I stopped in to have a warm cup of coffee at the Wild Chicken Coffee House in Loomis. It's a cozy little spot where the locals come to drink, talk and use their computers (like they are at Starbucks). I sat in the corner, in a clandestine manner, and drew this scene. Nobody bothered me except for one woman who was looking at me and I thought she thought I was drawing her
By Christian GoodmanI love coffee! So much so that I enjoy a cup of Starbucks almost every day. Is this bad for my health? Some people say so. This was highlighted the other day while having breakfast with a friend. She told me how "lucky" I am to be able to have my coffee every day. She said she couldn't drink coffee anymore due to high blood pressure. Her doctor advised her that this
By Marc WarrenCan you name every type of plant or flower? What about every type of tree? Of course not ??" there is a ridiculous number of species and within those species hundreds of different types, each having their own name. It is impossible to remember the names of them all.

Another way I save money is by abstaining from drinking coffee.
I have been through stages of my life where I have drunk coffee; actually these stages were quite long, but I’ve been off coffee for over a year now. I didn’t initially start drinking coffee until my late 20’s, before then I only got an [...]
This morning I lay awake in bed, my mind reeling with everything that's been going on in the past month and most recently my husbands car blowing up last night and how much it's going to cost to have it towed to the mechanics and how much it will cost to fix and whether we can actually afford to buy a new (crucially needed) vehicle... we can't. And I hear crunching outside the window.I swear it so
Coffee and Cinnamon Bread... what a glorious combination on a cold, snowy morning. Except I had 4 thick pieces of the bread and now I feel a little sick and I'm of course thinking if I keep eating breads and goodies this weekend I'll be hoping for some Lipovox or something in my stocking Christmas morning. The bread is moist and wonderful... but even more so because I didn't bake it! LOL. My h

McDonald's vs Starbucks. Starbucks vs McDonald's. Mcdonald's has issued a declaration of war against the coffee giant, Starbucks. Apparently, Starbucks is unwilling, at this juncture, to fight back. McDonalds is going full steam ahead with their fight. Billboards in Seattle, WA, possibly the Coffee drinking capital of the world, are blaring out "Four Bucks Is Dumb." Actually, I agree with
It is common knowledge that the caffeine content in coffee is not good for human health. In spite of that caffeine consumption the world over has increased in the past decade.

How much do you really know about coffee? Here's a link to test how much you know about coffee - Coffee IQ Quiz. I took the quiz myself and turns out that I only knew how to drink coffee. 1 to 2 cups of coffee everyday is what I know. That's fine for me as you don't have to know that much to really enjoy coffee. Sometimes knowing too much might not improve the flavor. A simple cup of coffee is jus

Viet Nam has told farmers to refrain from expanding coffee plantations to new land next year to try to avoid boom-and-bust planting cycles following price fluctuations, an Agriculture Ministry official said on Tuesday.

Unless you want to spend 30 minutes rinsing the darn thing!
