The Triangle’s most talented baristas will put their skills to the test this Thursday, May 31st, at the Thursday Night Throwdown (TNT) latte art competition hosted by Counter Culture Coffee and Cafe Helios in downtown Raleigh.
Baristas from throughout the Triangle will go head to head crafting their best latte art which is then judged by the audience. The winner moves on to the next round to compete again until an ultiamte champion is crowned at the end of the evening. The winner will receive eternal glory, bragging rights, and some cool prizes too!
This throwdown is extra special because it also marks Cafe Helio’s 10th anniversary! To add to the festivities there will be food trucks on hand including Klausie’s Pizza, American Meltdown, and Bulkogi Truck, music, and an after party at C.Grace, the bar next door, featuring a special cocktail menu after the champion is crowned.
