"LiLo’s tiny storefront isn’t the most comfortable place to linger, but its hand-poured coffee still draws hordes of bean aficionados. Osaka’s small-batch roasters have typically gone for dark roasts, but LiLo has faith that brighter blends will catch on in the city. Tasting notes and the origins of the beans are illustrated on descriptive cards that come with each cup. The color-coded charts and impeccably helpful staff help diffuse any intimidation neophytes might feel visiting such a specialist." - La Carmina, Michael Sosnick
