Visiting Consumer Fair Brunei Darussalam Part 6 Day 2

30^th July 2010, Friday – This morning I went to Bridex Hall, Jerudong to visit the 6^th part of Brunei Darussalam’s Consumer Fair. To go there, I have to park my car at the Jerudong Park Playground (JP) food court parking area. I cannot park at the Bridex Hall parking area due to I do not have necessary pass. “No pass, no entry” is strictly enforced here.

The fair was officially open yesterday (29^th July 2010, Thursday) and will end on this coming Sunday (1^st August 2010).

I have spending my time at Coffee Bean and the Tea Leaf booth for nearly half an hour. Coffee is my favourite drink (though I cannot drink it more than one cup per few days). I have taste (or testing) nearly all the ten type of teas that are on display on their table. And I also taste a variety of coffee. No sugar is added for both tea and coffee. I do not like adding sugar when drinking tea and coffee ( and also Milo..Milo has sugar added earlier in the production process) because it will spoil the taste of the coffee and tea.

After tasting (or testing) the teas, I find out that I like the Moroccan Mint (from Morocco) and Genmaicha Green (from Japan). Both of them are green tea. I prefer green tea because it is the only tea tea that suit me (so far).

Other than tasting the tea and coffee, I get a few tips of how to make iced blended drink, making a coffee and a tea drink. I do not think this is a trade secret because a good coffee and tea drink is also depend on the skill and craftmanship of the barista ( the tea or coffeemaker).

p/s: I hope I can remember what are the tips….and the search for a better coffeee and tea continue.
