I found an awesome little outing that I will be attending with my friend, Kristen (Yay! Cue the happy dance Music). She is big into Coffee! I mean the girl can down 2 cups of coffee before her feet even touch the floor in the morning. No joke... she has her keurig set up on her nightstand. Well, I hope she will be as excited as I am about the 'coffee cupping' at Counter Culture Coffee. What is 'coffee cupping', you ask? It's a fancy way of saying you are going to a coffee tasting.
Details: Counter Culture 'Coffee Cupping'
When: Every Friday @ 10am
Where: Counter Culture Roastery - 4911 South Alston Avenue, Durham, NC
What to Expect: A coffee tasting cupping and then a free guided tour of the roastery and headquarters.
Another event that I would absolutely love to attend this weekend is the Food Truck Rodeo. Food trucks are a huge trend right now. They have come a long way from the hot dog stand outside of the bar at 2 am. Out of the list of 27 participating food trucks, I am most excited about the Korean BBQ truck (BulKogi Korean BBQ found here on Twitter). I am so excited!
Details: Food Truck Rodeo
When: October 30th (Sunday) 4pm-8pm
Where: Durham Central Park
What to Expect: 27 food trucks at your service, music , and even a climbing wall! Come hungry and leave happy. :)
Great coffee, great food, a great friend... this is going to be a great weekend! Oh, and it's my birthday (on Friday) too! I can't wait to start the weekend festivities! :)
Oh, I am so jealous you have food trucks there. And I am even jealous-er that you have access to Korean bbq. I fell in love with it in LA, and you can't find it anywhere here!! Have a great time!
ReplyDeleteI will have to drop off some of my mother-in-law's Korean BBQ sometime. It is so delicious! She gave me a Korean cookbook for Christmas, but I haven't tried any of the recipes yet.
