First time doing latte art. The teacher was very patient and professional. We had two chances to make actual latte arts with different patterns. It was such a fun experience. This class mainly focused on the pouring techniques, which is much harder than I expected. But I enjoyed it a lot. Now I have much more respect for the baristas who made those beautiful latte arts.
