One of our favorite cafés is the Wired Monk Coffee Bistro. It’s atmospheric, the walls are covered with fantastic local art, and they sell this amazing sweet caramelized walnut croissant.

N. and I have been going to the Wired Monk lately to enjoy tea, reading, and sketching (and croissants). Above is a sketch of N. reading and the one below that is a rough sketch of a section of the Bistro’s interior. The sketch includes some notes and reflections about the different memorable visits I’ve had of the past eight years.
