Espresso Vivace
Espresso Vivace makes some of the best caffe espresso drinks in Seattle, possibly the US. They helped to pioneer latte art with their famous rossetta design. The new Vivace espresso bar, Alley 24, was the temporary headquarters for Laughing Squid and Citizen Agency in Seattle before Gnomedex started.
Niall Kennedy, who tipped me off to the new Alley 24 location, also shot some photos of Espresso Vivace.

All these Gnomedex photos are making me way homesick for Seattle!

Not that I spend almost every friggin’ day of my life in cafes or anything. But I’d wager that vivace has the best cappuccinos on the planet. Si o no?

I just visited seattle for the very first time to really suck in the true coffee house junkie spirit. o man, and my best friend told me to look for espresso vivace since she saw some awesome photos on flicker. and MY GOSH, THEY MADE THE BEST DRINK EVER. i had the white velvet since thats my bestfriends favorite drink at other coffee houses we bum at, and damn, yes, they truly know how to make coffee.

I’m from Virginia and we don’t have the premium coffee houses such as Espresso Vivace and others. If you live in the Seattle area, stop in to see my son Jason (the new employee) at Espresso Vivace. I hope he makes it to the Barista ranks. Let me know how he’s doing.

I added this link to my Espresso Vivace post. I was impressed to find so much love for this coffee outside Seattle. Working so close to Vivace it’s easy to forget how powerful a reach they have. Amazing espresso none-the-less.
Laughing Squid loves coffee! Love your picture too. Noish work!
