Island Cappuccino Morning #8: Delta Prince Edward

You would think that the Delta Prince Edward, being the largest hotel on Prince Edward Island and thus temporary home to international financiers, rulers, and royalty, would seek to make the best cappuccino in town.

While the presentation was nice — look at that elegant swirl! — and the service was world-class, the cappuccino itself was moribund.

Delta Prince Edward Cappuccino

The worst of it was that it was served luke-warm. There was also the deflated foam and the coffee that was bland and tasteless.

If you’d asked me which would have a better cappuccino, tiny Linda’s next door or the Delta, I’d have picked the Delta every time. I was wrong. Sorry.

I have often dragged a visiting friend of client out of the Delta, much to their surprise, and across the street to lindas. 6$ at lindas and I leave with a full belly, 20$+ at the delta gets me in line at the buffet.
