Lovely Latte Art In China Transcends The Language Barrier

Finding good coffee in China can be a challenge unless your standard of a hot beverage is Starbucks or Costa Coffee. Nowadays things are getting better as more and more Chinese people are discovering a love for coffee and more and more foreigners are coming into the country.

As a Melbournian, I love my coffee in high quality and frequent doses so it was a dream when I found an amazing barista called PuYa.

She doesn’t speak a lot of English and much to my detriment I only speak the most basic Mandarin but we communicate through love for coffee and beautiful latte art.
