Love his website! He actually called himself coffee Nazi. I though it's a nickname that others call behind his back.

I've only got coffee from him once. So I have no comment on the quality.

Well, mentioning Starbxxxx (esp comparing with their beans) at any independent coffee house is just asking for trouble. LOL

I like the following so far:
Milano (W 8th location)
Elysian (both)
JJ (commercial dr makes better espresso)
Kafka’s
Matchstick was too acidic for me but I heard they may have improved since.  
I like Revolver for my single visit so far but they don't roast their coffee beans.

We in some way are spoiled here. I went to Montreal and found that having in-house roasted coffee isn't a common thing there. (guessing it's east coast vs west coast) We saw a few "well rated" cafe using 49th Parallel beans.... @_@

We buy beans when we travel as "hand gift" for ourselves.

Just found this online Not a bad list.

Currently no local roaster that I know of serves Chinese/Hong Kong pastry.
There may be some that have Taiwanese style western pastry/dessert (Kerrisdale).
But I am not sure.

I don't know. It's up to cafe owners to bring whatever kind of pastry in.

Peet's roast is usually darker. May be good with Moka or espresso machine.
