Tonight: Thursday Night Throwdown at Ultimo Coffee
Latte art competitions might not be as inherently engrossing as football (or even professional badminton), but here are a few very important reasons to check out the Thursday Night Throwdown battle royale hosted by Aaron and Elizabeth Ultimo at Ultimo Coffee(1900 S. 15th St.) tonight. First: coffee people are smart and interesting, especially when they're coming to Newbold from Bodhi, Spruce Street Espresso, Shot Tower, Elixr and others. Second: Ultimo's built-in neighbor, Brew, will be pouring Philadelphia Brewing Co. Walt Wit and Newbold IPA. Third: SPTR chef Scott Schroeder is currently balls-deep in the deviled eggs he'll serve tonight. "A real nice classic," he says, "like my mom would make, but kicked up a notch." Expect a rouge of smoked paprika instead of the usual sweet and chopped dill pickles blended with the yolks. "Better Than My Mom's Deviled Eggs?" We'd say so. Wanna compete in the Throwdown? Sign up by 7. Pour at 8. They'll also be collecting donations for Japan relief efforts all night.
