Saturday Farmers Market w/ @monutsdonuts, Sunday @bikecoffeedrm @dtownmarket & @cocoacinnamon spice bazaar this weekend!
Last weekend we played with the Straight of Hormuz recipe with success. The secret ingredient that landed up doing the trick was simple: Organic Malabar black pepper – the native source for black pepper (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black_pepper). This spice lays at the heart of the history of spice exploration and conquest and was a key good that traveled through Hormuz for centuries – analogous to the oil that travels through today. I like a couple of the responses that we got: a) it balanced the sweetness of the Ko Kyu meal one customer had ordered and b) the spice/pepper hint in the coffee added a warmth on the cold day. It’s definitely not caramel syrup. If you want to try something unique and peppery this weekend come visit us and try The Straight of Hormuz! Open up your coffee world.
Saturday morning from 10AM to 12PM you can find us setup together with Monuts Donuts (http://monutsdonuts) across from the Durham Farmer’s Market. A lot of you have requested for us to come to this event. And the Durham Herald-Sun is coming out to get some pictures of our bikes together and talk to us for a story.
This Sunday from 12 – 5ish we’ll be back at our old faithful DtownMarket and MotorKoKyu Bloody Brunch! Here you can get on your spiced Bloody Mary or Sunday Mimosa thing, eat a ridiculously good meal and browse true indie wares hand made and gleaned, oh and get a hand made cup of coffee from bikeCOFFEE! Check out the DtownMarket’s Facebook & Event Page for a full lineup: https://www.facebook.com/events/#!/events/231784816896315/
Come by and get a cup before the Tweetup too!
We’ll also be doing something a little special at the DtownMarket this Sunday! With a little extra help from our friend Colin Miller, we’ll be adding the Spice Up Your Winter Spice Bazaar! We’ll have over 100 organic herbs and spices and everything will be sold at a discount! Need to put a little spice in these gray days, come on over and stock up for a new dish, a healthy alternative and the color, texture and scent of spice! This is a special winter thing we’re having a little fun with, so get it while it’s cold 
!!! You can see a list of many of our choices on our web menu under Spice. See you there!
And as you can imagine, we are now thinking about Valentine’s Day chocolates. We’ll have our menu posted by this time next week. Stay tuned!
