I was middle aged before I learned you can order a long black with a splash of milk from any cafe (aussie.zone)

I can still feel all those overly milky flat whites I drank for decades weighing me down.

Haha, yeah i forget some things are more Perth specific. Never heard of Melbourne's Magic, is that the name of a coffee?

[–] johnwicksdog@aussie.zone 0 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Yeah a magic is a double ristretto, topped up to about 3/4 of a flat white. It’s been spreading in popularity outside of Melbourne, and coffee shops in Sydney (where I live) make them too.

Another great Perth thing is the Conti roll. It’s a damn shame that hasn’t spread to the rest of the country.

Wow! That sounds strong, i see what you mean, its similar to the long Mac in some ways.

Conti rolls are another great example of that, i almost mentioned them this morning as well.
