Foods from Equator Coffee Roasters (Westboro)

I spent some quality time here on a Saturday morning with long-time Ottawa Foodies contributor Captain Caper. We had a great conversation and the coffee was excellent. The Flat White ($3.80) is pricy in that Westboro way but perfectly crafted and delicious. It's a 5 oz drink, implying roughly 3 oz of milk and 2 oz of espresso. In other words, it hits my happy-place ratio of 1:1.5 coffee to microfoamed milk.
There's an incredible amount of overlap and regional variation between espresso-milk drinks, so this exact product could be referred to as any of:
- a strong flat white ("normal" would be 1:2)
- a strong wet-foam cappuccino ("normal" would be 1:2)
- a weak cortado ("normal" would be 1:1)
