The Coffee Diaries chapter 9

Dunn Brothers- Overland Park
     It's nice to know that despite being a franchise, there are differences in the two locations. The Overland Park location recommends the Full City Blend which is a medium roast from Peru. It has a nice, smooth flavor that's very even. It's exactly what you'd expect from a medium roast.
     The shop has a different lay out and feel to it. There are couches in the middle of the room that surround a fireplace. There are tables and chairs along the walls and a magazine rack next to the couches. The Full City Blend ain't bad but the search continues...

Dunn Brothers-Red Bridge
     The recommended coffee at this fine establishment is a light blend Ethiopian. It's simple and has the slight, bitter taste to it that lets you know it didn't just come out of a can.
     The shop itself has a nice layout, nothing fancy. There's the counter as you walk in and the condiments at the end of it. There are a few tables and chairs scattered throughout. There are also some big, comfortable chairs with end tables and reading lamps next to them. That was a nice touch since I do like to catch up on some reading when I visit a coffee shop. The over all experience wasn't bad but the search does continue...
