A New Addition To Our Menu!

A new addition to our menu! The Greek side of the 'Family' is represented by our Dolmas dish. A vegetarian's delight, this dish is made of rice stuffed grape leaves, served with a slice of tomato, topped with tzatziki sauce, Feta cheese sprinkles and a few oil cured olives.

I grew up with variations on this dish, the Romanian variation has minced meat mixed in with the rice. The usual wrap is either the grape leaf or the sweet cabbage.

The dish we serve at The Coffee Buzz though, has no meat, completely vegetarian, if we don't take in consideration the dairy part found in the Tzatziki sauce.

Come experience our new dish soon!

See you soon!

Summer is here!!!

Summer (read heat) is here! Can't say that we were so willing to put up with the temperatures over 90 degrees so soon. But, it is what it is and we'll try to cope with it.

We are expecting a decline in hot drinks and more selling of the cold drinks. In preparation for that, we have added five natural flavors Smoothies. They come in Small or Large size and cost $3.50 (small) and $4.50 (large)

The flavors we carry for now are:

  • Mango/Passion Fruit
  • Strawberry/Cranberry
  • Pomegranate/Acai
  • Peach/Green Tea
  • Wild Berry/Green Tea
They are tasty, I have tried each of one and my favorite is the Mango.
=====================================

As for Summer activities, look for a wonderful presentation on a Saturday afternoon in May (to be determined), where we will invite a Chinese Tea Artist to demonstrate the art of brewing and serving Chinese tea. The artist is Hong Mei Lu, a wonderfully talented lady and wife of Chunyi Lu, a colleague at the Phoenix Symphony. And believe me, I have tried her teas, they are nothing but addictive!!!!

Check our web site often for details on this event!

=====================================

Another notable event will be centering on camera collecting. I will prepare a nice presentation on camera history, collecting and values. Please bring cameras to be appraised. I am a member of the IDCC (Internet Directory of Camera Collectors) which spreads all over the world. A lot of my collectibles will also be on display.

This event will also take place on a Saturday afternoon, please check our web site for the exact date.

======================================

Well, I guess the Summer is not going to slow us down, after all...

See y'all soon...

A Great Success

Our first! The Coffee Buzz participated in its first 'Tasting Ahwatukee' experience. It was a great success and a wonderful experience as well. Our booth was visited by approximately 500 visitors, we finished the first batch of coffee in less than 30 minutes! We had to go back and grind/brew some more.

We received very positive comments regarding our coffees (hot and cold) as well as our sandwich samples.

We are already looking forward to our next exhibit! 

Thank you for all that came to visit our booth.

Dimitri and Carol

Happy Holidays!

It's been over a year...

...since we took ownership of The Buzz and many things have changed indeed! A new Menu, based on Italian Deli specialties, with authentic Italian meats (such as Mortadella, Sopresatta, Prosciutto, Genoa Salame) and cheeses (Mozzarella, fresh Mozzarella, Provolone), was started in October 2008. We are seeing an increased interest in these Italian sandwiches. We are still carrying the breakfast menu from before, with a few additions such as the Buzz-Rito (breakfast burrito with eggs, cheese, bacon and a few extras as desired), Sarah's Favorite (toasted bagel with mashed avocado, sliced tomatoes, pesto and fresh basil). Breakfast is still served all day long.

We added a Saturday morning musical event, having one of Valley's premier musicians, Mr. Aaron Howard (Guitar, vocal and violin) performing live every Saturday morning from 10am to 12:30pm.

Chek often with our website for new events coming up!
