The Best Coffee in Chile?

Monday 30th January 2017

A very lazy day, getting up very late due to a late night (early morning) and rather a lot of Jamaican rum from Barbados.

After at least one game of Carcassonne, an expedition to the shops for basic supplies was necessary. One of the most basic necessities was a decent cup of coffee. Most of what we'd had anywhere in Chile to date was very average.

But a recommendation led us to a small takeaway establishment in the main street. Very unassuming, it didn't look different to any of its neighbours selling empanadas and hot dogs (Completos in Chile), but the coffee was really nice, and our lattés were decorated like Flat Whites, a presentation style we have yet to find in South America. Subsequent coffees elsewhere didn't change my opinion either.



So, when in Pichilemu, head for the Cardumen Café at 96 Anibal Pinto Street. Highly recommended.

P.S. a quick look on a popular internet search engine shows that a lot of others agree.
