Transcend Coffee to Open New Cafe on Jasper Avenue and Expand Food and Beverage Options
Summary
Dishes like empenadas, pupusas, aprepas, pao de queijo, and the like will make up a flavourful and unique dining experience for Edmontonians.Beer and wine will also be approached in the same manner as coffee, focusing on unique, exceptional, flavourful hard-to-find beverages that accentuate the new food items and have a story of their own.To realize this goal we travel the world to find the very best green coffee, grown by dedicated farmers.“We’re very happy with the location and confident we can bring the Transcend experience to the downtown crowd.” The new cafe will be staffed by existing, seasoned Transcend baristas—who have received more than 100 hours espresso and latte art training—as well as some new hires.The new Transcend Jasper cafe, as well as the existing Transcend Garneau cafe (8708 – 109 St), will also be introducing an expanded hot food menu as well as a small selection of remarkable beer and wine in the spring of 2011.New food items will all be made in-house by Chad Moss, Transcend’s head coffee roaster, new culinary lead and Red Seal chef, while artisan breads will be baked by Transcend’s bread enthusiast, Jeff Johnson.Dishes like empenadas, pupusas, aprepas, pao de queijo, and the like will make up a flavourful and unique dining experience for Edmontonians.
