Since monster hunter wilds has me by the nuts I think my marvel rivals climb is over. Haven't touched it since thing/torch release.
wanted gm but ehh, happy with it for someone who didn't play any fps or overwatch type game. Got d2 but dropped to d3 quick

Instead of going to my FAB road to nationals I chose to stay home and make a basque cheesecake
I maybe left it a bit too long in the oven but we'll find out tomorrow

Heading home to Melbourne
It was awesome to travel to Japan and compete. Although I didn't place where I wanted to, going to Japan with a new group of friends was so good for discovering new things and introducing them to things I enjoyed.

Picture says a thousand words
12 hours of hard competition only to go home and grind for an hour and a half for what is to be one of his hardest games to start top 8.
Congratulations on your top 4 placing @SamYOLO42
Carrying Australia on your back like the hero you are!

First one in Japan
Kielo Coffee
perfect temp for me. they even knew I drink coffee often because I asked for it strong in a small cup and suggested a balanced roast
provides tasting notes
opted for vegan banana bread instead of cheesecake (8am)
was such a good combo

This in particular is really bad dude... you don't just assume that because you haven't heard of someone that they are beneath you.
You want to become a community leader act like one instead of talking down to a person that could be at pixel. Let alone not even argue the points

Bridge Coffee & Ice cream
in Nihonbashibakurocho
Hidden gem not on my list. Saw it at the corner of my hotel and wanted to try due to seeing hot filter drips with timers
Did not disappoint. perfect temp on my latte
Lovely rustic style cafe complete with cracks on the wall

Eorzea cafe tokyo
The food here is miles better than the one in osaka. cover charge is more but they give u a drink on the house.
tiramisu leylines an absolute star

Now we have to do it again in tokyo... 😅
honestly the food is meh. the drinks and dessert are great tho
the coasters all give me nostalgia and have been making me think about hitting buttons again

Here's the trap. Every single purchase comes with a random coaster...you don't want to know...so here

It's not a stretch to assume that this place was going to be a huge $$$$ sink. Cover charge gives a coaster of your class and a random ftidge magnet of a class. picked my favourite class monk and got a astrologian fridge magnet. Traded it for a monk magnet

Eorzea Cafe Osaka
FFXIV has a very special place in my heart. I picked it up due to covid restrictions and found a band of friends, raid families, high end savage and Ultimate raiding. LONG thread of pics

Mel Pour Coffee in Osaka
Nestled away from the hustle and bustle
They roast their own beans inside this tiny specialty store
The price is outrageous even for melbourne
single origin double shot latte for $15 aud
Great coffee. Possibly the best in Japan. But that price hurts

while I visit the Osaka aquarium
9 borden coffee has an unmatched vibe. Jazzy tunes with a solid looking workstation.
The latte was a bit too hot for me and I'm a firm believer of drinking as soon as it arrives. But the balance was good
Very solid drip coffee so i recommend

Brooklyn Roasting company in Osaka namba
Still a solid offering of different beans across different styles of drinks
A good brew, tho I think my rose tinted glasses remember a better coffee 5 years ago
Still a solid spot thats away from the usual competitive fare 1km north

Weekenders Coffee
went to the one by nishiki market
Fantastic coffee. You can respect a coffee shops confidence when they do cappucino's the traditional way (no chocolate)
I had the colombia pour over
Very happy to see slow drip method and it was a fantastic pour
great spot

Baristas breakfast at kamee coffee kyoto
I recommend the milk coffee, the espresso is grinded quite coarse which takes away from the sharpness of a shot.
but the milk temp is on point and blends nicely
try the cheeseecake (friends all enjoyed theirs)
