The Michigan-based business also makes several fruit sorbets.Īnd then there’s the caffeinated aspect of the menu. Gelato flavors featured throughout the year, according to Momento’s website, include Michigan Fresh Peach (a seasonal offering), Salted Caramel, and Italian Hazelnut Honey (a WOW-worthy flavor if there ever was one!). I got a scoop each of its butter pecan and pistachio flavors, and WOW! They were so rich and creamy and flat-out wonderful. But I’m here to attest that any day of the year is the perfect one to consume Momento’s gelato. You’d think a frigid January’s morn wouldn’t lend itself well to gelato eating. And it’s not to be missed its gelato is exceptional.

The coffee house plus gelato joint resides on Trumbull Street, just a stone’s throw from 100 Places in the D favorite Ottava Via. (With an additional location, Birmingham Roast, in Birmingham)Īs if I needed another reason to love Corktown, here comes Momento Gelato & Coffee, really making me swoon! The silver lining: it’s here for me, awaiting a revisit whenever I’m ready! All I have to do is follow the mantra emblazoned in neon light on one of its walls: “Wake up. It all melded together to induce a pleasant flow state of productivity, and my couple-hour visit flew by.Īs with all good things, my visit to Royal Oak Roast ended much too soon. And I soaked up the ambiance: the glistening tile and gleaming copper, the granite countertops and golden-bright lights. I engaged with the baristas, who were cheerful and welcoming. I sipped two of its decadent drinks, a cappuccino and an Almond Joy latte (an espresso-based drink infused with coconut, almond, and chocolate). What a gem Royal Oak Roast is! A gem with multi-faceted charm: delicious drinks, friendly baristas, and mega-watt ambiance.ĭuring a remote work session at the Royal Oak-based coffee house, I basked in the brilliance of all that charm. I see myself returning again and again to this sweet little coffee-lover’s haven. But some places are so good, I can’t help but revisit. Visiting new-to-me places is (obviously) an obsession of mine. That’s going to become a regular in my rotation, for sure. And its Café Miel! Black Cat’s take on the classic espresso drink infused with steamed milk and honey is SO good.


Its Spicy Cougar signature drink is phenomenal, a deliciously sweet, spicy, chocolatey concoction.

Its cappuccino is rich and creamy its nitro cold brew is full of flavor. I’ve visited Black Cat twice now, savoring those tasty drinks during remote-work sessions. And the drinks! The drinks are oh-so-delicious, perfect little infusions of caffeine and flavor. The shop is beautiful: a soothing-glam oasis with its gleaming tin ceilings, scarlet walls, potted plants, and crystal chandeliers. The baristas are super welcoming, happy to chat you up, recommend a drink – even make change so you can feed your parking meter. From what I’ve experienced of Black Cat, it attracts repeat customers – and for good reason. I don’t appear to be the only one who espouses that sentiment about the indie coffee house based in downtown Mount Clemens.

Black Cat Coffee, a place where you want to be a regular!
