You may have read our recent post about Octane’s series of Thursday Night Throwdown latte art competitions, including Brett’s moment of fame as the winner of the all important kick-off. Well, a minor detail that we may have forgotten to mention was the presence of a CNN reporter documenting the event. His photo essay has just been posted online and it gives a great sense of the various stages in the latte art competition. Brett & Havilah also get a little air time in some short audio blurbs and choice photographs. (We’re pretty sure Brett’s winning rosetta latte is the first shot! Also, we attribute his later enthusiasm to the appearance of free Piraat…)
