Oct. 20: D.C. baristas get the Thursday Night Throwdown they deserve
Philly’s next Thursday Night Throwdown (TNT) latte art competition is set for tomorrow, Oct. 20, when Spruce Street Espresso (1101 Spruce St.) will participate in the first-ever TNT pitting city against city. Typically, the monthly event sees baristas from a single town competing against each other, but after some hardcore YouTube shit-talking from espresso jockeys based in our nation's capital (see above), it was decided that four reps from Philly and four from Washington, D.C. should go foam-to-foam in a bracket-style tournament. The event starts at 8 p.m., with the competition, which will be judged via webcam between Philly and D.C.., kicking off at 9. Winners will receive a prize package from Counter Culture Coffee, and they're sweetening the deal in Philly by making the evening a costume party with a cash prize for best get-up. We hope someone shows up as this (bride and groom optional). The TNT is free to attend and all are welcome to cheer on our city’s baristas. Bring it home, Philly!
