LAST WEEK’S COFFEE QUIZ ANSWER-- In a truly end of the world location, Wake Up Coffee in Punta Arenas, Chile is a remarkable find for world explorers dying (by this point) for quality espresso drinks. Punta Arenas is the end of urban civilization before heading south to Cape Horn and the Strait of Magellan and eventually Drakes Passage. One Yelper says it reminds him of a cozy Oregon or Seattle coffee house with above average food. Just saw on facebook a Wake Up advertisement looking for a chef. Hmmmm. Wanna get away?
