from the tastgarden to your plate

the tomatoes did not fair to well this summer due to all the rain and overcast skies. I feel for the farmers who depend on a good harvest.
our basil however is growing out of control. we should be able to harvest enough to make enough pesto for the entire year.

no pesticides, only natural fertilizers.

no sludge here!

we slave and toil out of love for you to make sure you have the very best. if its not good enough for my family, its not good enough for me to feed to you.

things we like...

we really like good coffee...a lot

our own classic cup is a careful blend of beans from guatemala, costa rica and columbia roasted dark enough for a richer flavor than what some of america runs on - without being as dark and bitter as what a green goddess may drink. we like to think it balances out the neighborhood...

if you're not in the neighborhood and happen to be in nashville, you should really go get a cup of coffee at sip cafe.


peter was there a few weeks ago and felt right at home with it's local vibe, friendly service and ability to get away from all that chain store coffee.
