I always look forward to the first proper coffee when I am in London, the current leader of coffee cities in the world. This time it has been a bit harder as I’m working at Ogilvy’s offices at Paddington and for some unknown reasons, it’s in the middle of a zone, free of any specialty coffee places.

So this morning, I took another bus into town and visited Coffee Plant, a very nice cafe on Portobello Road. The comments on Foursquare were spot on. Proper coffee and the pain au chocolate was divine, fresh out of the oven.
