Forget bars and cocktails, this is the age of baristas and coffees. Hong Kong's coffee makers are gathering this weekend to join the GBC barista contest.
The Grand Barista Championship, organised by Australian company Danes Gourmet Coffee, will have preliminary heats on 14-15Aug to select six finalists on to compete in Restaurnat and Bar Hong Kong on Sep 7.
