UPS logo

This morning a group of people came into the restaurant for breakfast and I noticed that they were wearing airline pilot's wings that said "UPS" on their jackets.  After they made some random comment about "always being surrounded by brown", I knew they definitely were a UPS flight crew.  So I of course couldn't resist the urge to do some logo latte art etching for them!

Coca Cola Logo

A group from Coca-Cola had a luncheon at ESS and of course ordered up some cappuccinos and lattes with their dessert.  I felt the need to do some themed latte art, and etched "Coke" in the classic script with the ribbon, and I also etched a Coke bottle in another drink (but forgot to take a picture).

Atlanta Food & Wine Festival Logo

The Atlanta Food & Wine Festival is going on right now!  So many visiting chefs and foodies have swarmed Empire State South and Midtown Atlanta.  Good thing is, most of them love coffee too.

Atlanta Hawks Logo

Another entry from the Latte Art Requests page.  Although this may look a little like Pac Man, it is in fact one of the old-school Atlanta Hawks logos.  I think I like it better than the current one. 

Five and Ten Logo

Today someone who works at the Five and Ten (another restaurant owned by Chef Hugh Acheson) in Athens came into Empire State South to eat.  The group at their table ordered a couple coffee drinks, so I had to try out some logo latte art etching.  The Five and Ten logo went into the latte, and I just poured a tulip in the espresso macchiato. 

Georgia Organics Logo

Georgia Organics just had their annual conference and some of our restaurant's higher ups got to attend.  Check out Chef Hugh's pickled okra recipe on their website!

Update: A group from Georgia Organics had lunch at ESS today, so I made their logo for them in a cappuccino.  They immediately posted it on Facebook!

Top Chef Logo

Looks like the restaurant where I work is gonna get really busy soon.  The contestants on the newest season of Top Chef Masters were just announced, and Hugh Acheson (the chef owner of Empire State South and the guy who hired me) is on the show.  I drew the Top Chef logo so that ESS could use the picture to make the announcement.  Make sure you start watching when the season premiers April 6th!

On a side note, Thursday Night Throwdown at Octane Coffee in Atlanta is tonight!  Wish me luck as I try to finally win the pot after many tries... my best finish ever was 2nd place.  I'll be sure to post pictures of my pours.
