With the intention that each cup of coffee brewed tells our story, expresses authenticity and inspires others. They mainly serve their own creations like Coffeeholic Dream, Coconut coffee, Bac Siu and White-hazel latte. And most importantly, the authentic Vietnamese coffee, using Organic Robusta beans from Vietnam and brew with the traditional phin-dripped methods. The flavors profile they are trying to bring are nutty, rich, thick body and caramelly. Coffeeholic House is a startup shop founded by passionate people who wants to establish a new coffee trend in Seattle. Their mission is to help save the environment while doing what they love and serve beautiful cups of coffee.

Coffeeholic House brews Vietnamese coffee in Colombia City

Coffeeholic House, an authentic Vietnamese coffee shop, is planned to open on April 28th. It is located on Main Street in Old Bellevue at One Main Street. Opening at the height of the COVID-19 pandemic’s first wave in Seattle’s Columbia City neighborhood, Coffeeholic House has been offering a welcome slice of contemporary Vietnamese coffee culture. One of the things that sets Vietnamese coffee apart is the beans themselves, Robusta, as opposed to the Arabica beans typically used for more coffee and espresso drinks in the States. “This place is an absolute MUST if you visit Seattle, especially if you're a fan of Vietnamese coffee.

A Vietnamese coffee shop is coming to Columbia City

Coffeeholic House serves their own creations like Coffeeholic Dream, coconut coffee, bac siu, white-hazel latte, and the authentic Vietnamese coffee with cream cheese foam. They also feature an ube or matcha latte, hot chocolate iced chocolate, strawberry milk, and different flavors of green tea. I wish I could remember what I exclaimed when I had my first sip at Coffeeholic House (although we probably couldn’t print it anyway). The Vietnamese coffee shop’s bestselling drink—nutty robusta coffee topped with cream cheese foam—delivers a sweet-and-salty combo so scarcely found in beverages that it drives me to Columbia City most every weekend.

Coffeeholic House Feat. Vietnamese Coffee to Open in Bellevue April 28

Forget the typical high-acidic or sour notes; our Vietnamese coffee promises a blissful experience with its captivating body and aroma. This will be the third location for the boutique coffee shop and the first that is located on the Eastside. The other two are currently open in Columbia City and Greenwood.

"But for us we want to take that to a specialty level, showcase the coffee culture we grew up with and redefine that 'oh, it's not cheap. It's something we value. It's a big part of our heart, our family and also the whole country." Coffeeholic House is a visionary startup founded by passionate coffee enthusiasts aiming to ignite a new coffee revolution in the heart of Seattle. The dynamic husband and wife duo, Chen & Trang, founded Coffeeholic House to introduce Seattle to the unique Vietnamese coffee experience. In March 1954, Clarence “Buck” Stahl and Carlotta May Gates drove from Los Angeles to Las Vegas and got married in a chapel. They each worked in aviation (Buck in sales, Carlotta as a receptionist), had previous marriages, and were strapping, tall, and extremely good looking—California Apollonians out of central casting.

Back home in L.A., as the newlyweds pondered their future, they became preoccupied with a promontory of land jutting out like the prow of a ship from Woods Drive in the Hollywood Hills, about 125 feet above Sunset Boulevard. It was as conspicuous as it was forbidding, visible from the couple’s house on nearby Hillside Avenue. “This lot was in pure view—every morning, every night,” Carlotta Stahl recalled. Locals called it Pecker Point, presumably because it was a prime makeout venue. For the Stahls, it became the blank screen on which they projected their dreams of a life together, a place to build a future, a family, and a house like no other. Our coffee is single origin, carefully selected and imported directly from Da Lat, Vietnam.

Columbia City’s Vietnamese cafe Coffeeholic House opened its second location in Greenwood at the beginning of October. Sourcing coffee directly from Vietnam, Coffeeholic offers modern takes on traditional Vietnamese drinks, like its ube latte (Purple Haze), and best-seller Coffeeholic Dream, made with salted cheese foam. About two months after their dash to Las Vegas, the Stahls decided to drive up to this mystery spot and have a look around. They found themselves gawping at the entirety of Los Angeles spread out below in a grid that went on for an eternity or two. In the kismet-filled conversation that followed, Buck agreed to buy the barren one-eighth-acre lot for $13,500, with $100 down and the seller maintaining the mortgage until the Stahls paid it off.

Coffeeholic House sources it's beans directly from Vietnam (the country is the world's second largest coffee exporter) and roasts them in-house in small batches. Those beans provide the base for all manner of creative, and Instagram-worthy, coffee creations. Get ready to indulge in a coffee experience like never before, an unparalleled journey that will leave you inspired and yearning for more. A signature latte made with roasted black sesame seeds and locally roasted rich espresso. Things never go exactly as planned when opening a restaurant, and that goes double when it opens one week before Gov. Jay Inslee issued the state’s “Stay Home, Stay Healthy” order.

Signature Phin Coffee

There are also alternative drink options like a honey latte, a matcha latte, and blended drinks. Phin coffee drinks are crafted on customized black phin brewers that display Coffeeholic’s name on the top. A Seattle coffee shop is bucking trends during the COVID-19 crisis. While many local businesses and restaurants have had to shut their doors, Coffeeholic House opened theirs.

"It really tells the story of our background. How we're immigrants, bringing all the good stuff in Vietnamese food culture to the world and putting it in a cup of coffee." At Coffeeholic House, each of those cups is another chance to share Vietnamese coffee culture with Seattle. "[The cheese foam] is kind of salted, so it's a little bit weird, but when they take the first sip and the coffee goes through the foam it's just perfectly blended together. It's like a dessert in a cup, but it's strong and bold," explained Dien with a smile. One of the staples at Coffeeholic House is traditional Vietnamese coffee made with Phin drip coffee and condensed milk for a serious caffeine kick.

Chen Dien and his wife worked for about a year to get the coffee shop off the ground. Since they came to Seattle eight years ago from Vietnam, Chen Dien and his wife Trang Cao have searched for a cup of coffee that could, for a sip, transport them home. When they couldn’t find it, they decided to make it themselves. Back at the shop, Dien and Cao continue to offer a menu that includes espresso-based drinks alongside drinks made through traditional Vietnamese phin brewing devices. "People think [Robusta] is just cheap coffee. It's something you use for instant coffee, $2-$3 collars a cup," said Dien.

Coffeeholic House isn't just about excellent coffee; it's a cultural experience too. We aspire to breathe a fresh wind into Seattle's vibrant coffee community, creating a space that celebrates diversity, exclusivity, and fascination. At Coffeeholic House, we pride ourselves on our unique creations, each carefully crafted to cater to the coffee aficionado in you. Indulge in the luscious Coffeeholic Dream, savor the tropical delight of Coconut Coffee, awaken your senses with the invigorating Bac Siu, or experience pure bliss with our White-Hazel Latte. Chen and Trangs commitment to authenticity, community support, and unique offerings have led to reaching serendipitous dreams and accomplishments.

On that site, they would construct Case Study House #22, designed by Pierre Koenig, arguably the most famous of all the houses in the famous Case Study program that Arts & Architecture magazine initiated in 1945. For generations of pilgrims, gawkers, architecture students, and midcentury-modern aficionados, it would be known simply as the Stahl House. Chen Dien and Trang Cao are a husband-wife duo and cofounders of Seattle's first Vietnamese coffee shop, Coffeeholic House. They immigrated from Vietnam to bring the coffee-rich culture of their country to Seattle in 2020. “Our best-sellers are the ube latte and Bac Siu,” said Dien.

They also carry food items like a coconut bun, green onion shredded pork bun, apple turnover, cinnamon roll, and blueberry cream cheese kolach. Though indoor seating is not yet possible, the interior design features hanging lamps made to look like Vietnamese silk lanterns, a painting of Vietnamese tropical birds and flowers, and black and white patterned paintings. And above the espresso bar is a small loft area with tropical plants and additional seating. While the colorful drinks may draw people in, Dien hopes they'll also inspire guests to enjoy coffee as they do in Vietnam.

Thanks equally to the owners’ inspiring flexibility and their original coffee drinks, Columbia City’s Coffeeholic House is an extremely welcome bright spot. In her spare time, she enjoys cycling, cooking, frequenting the Bellevue Downtown Park with her family and searching for the perfect chocolate treat. Even as the shop has seen a steady flow of foot traffic during the pandemic, the owners are naturally looking forward to a time when guests can more deeply take in their Vietnamese-inspired surroundings. After working in coffee since their teenage years, Dien and Cao signed a lease on the Columbia City storefront in July of 2019. Following months of permitting, inspections and a meticulous buildout, the grand opening unfortunately coincided with the pandemic surge, and the shop opened with just takeout and curbside pickup.

• MSC Cruises ships from newest to oldest — a complete list

You'll find two main restaurants on each of these vessels, a main buffet, a separate self-service food area with pizza and an American-style steakhouse. MSC World Europa has 13 dining venues, including the new-for-the-line Chef's Garden Kitchen (an outlet focused on microgreens) and La Pescaderia, a traditional seafood grill with alfresco seating. In a twist, the ship has three separate buffet restaurants, each with its own ambiance.

The Marina Pool

You'll find original Broadway-style musicals, piano concerts and even operas. For dinner in a main dining room, you must either have My Choice dining with the Aurea experience (a flexible dining option where you dine whenever you want) or classic dining (where you have a fixed table and time for dinner). The bigger MSC Cruises ships offer vacationers a ton of options for dining (some vessels have more than a dozen distinct places to eat dinner or at least grab a quick bite) or entertainment. The line's remaining eight vessels, split among two classes, are considerably smaller, with maximum occupancy topping out at 2,700 to 3,200 passengers. The grande dame of the MSC Cruises fleet is its recently unveiled MSC World Europa. At 215,863 tons, it's the biggest MSC Cruises ship ever built and the first of a new series of so-called World Class vessels that are nearly as big as Royal Caribbean's Oasis Class ships.

ALL THE COMFORTS TO SUIT YOUR STYLE

With the even pricier "Aurea" experience, you'll get complimentary access to the spa's thermal area, priority boarding and other perks. The Aurea experience also comes with access to My Choice dining and an exclusive sun deck area that on many ships features an exclusive bar and hot tubs. Smoking (including electronic cigarette smoking) is allowed in a limited number of designated areas on ships, with the primary smoking area on ships being an outdoor pool area that varies by ship and is indicated by signage.

However, overlaid across many of the line's ships are high-end suites, upscale restaurants and luxury services — most notably the suites and amenities in the exclusive, upscale MSC Yacht Club areas found on some vessels (more on that later). The eight smaller ships, which in general are the line's older ships, allow MSC Cruises to offer itineraries to places that aren't as easy for big ships to visit. Not all ports in the world can handle a ship the size of the World Class or Meraviglia Class vessels, although even the biggest MSC Cruises ships are still designed to be able to call at most ports around the world.

There's also the Chase Sapphire Preferred Card, which earns 2 points per dollar spent on travel (and dining). One step up is the more expensive "Fantastica" experience, which adds room service and breakfast delivered to your cabin, priority choice of dinner sittings, access to additional kids activities and classes, and more. On cruises in other parts of the world, the onboard currency is the euro. All vessels operate on a cashless system with any onboard purchases you make posting automatically to your onboard account.

Nearly every ship also has at least one — and sometimes quite a few — extra-charge venues. Among the most common across the fleet is the American-style steakhouse Butcher's Cut, which is found on more than half the line's vessels. There also are sushi bars on more than half the line's ships, with varying names like Kaito Sushi and Galaxy Sushi. The grand dame of the MSC Cruises fleet is its recently unveiled MSC World Europa. At 215,863 tons, it's the biggest MSC Cruises ship ever built and the first of a new series of so-called World Class vessels that are nearly as big as Royal Caribbean's Oasis Class ships and soon-to-debut Icon Class ships (the world's biggest cruise ships).

You'll receive a Cruise Card (or, on the newer ships, an MSC for Me wristband) that you can use to make purchases. MSC Cruises ships also have a dedicated Mini Club (ages 3 to 6) and Junior Club (ages 7 to 11) with age-appropriate activities. Designed in partnership with the Lego Group, the Mini Clubs offer games, events and activities such as arts and crafts.

The oldest MSC Cruises ships — those built in the early 2000s — are less than a third the size of the line's newest vessels and have far fewer venues on board. On average, the line comes out without about one new ship a year, though its rollout of ships has been rapid the past few years. MSC Cruises typically keeps vessels in its fleet for around 20 to 25 years before retiring them from the fleet. It can be hard to keep track, as MSC Cruises has been rolling out new cruise ships in quick succession over the past few years. However, it's a good thing to know if you're in the market for an MSC Cruises voyage.

MSC Seashore has five specialty restaurants that feature waterfront, outdoor seating on the ship's boardwalk. On more than half of MSC Cruises' ships, many of the top suites are part of an exclusive, keycard-accessed area called the MSC Yacht Club. Billed as an upscale "ship within a ship" and aimed at luxury travelers, the MSC Yacht Club is at the very top of vessels and comes with a private lounge, a pool, sunning areas and even its own restaurant. Add those in, and MSC Cruises operates 10 of the world's 35 biggest cruise ships, plus four somewhat smaller Fantasia Class vessels that can each hold around 4,400 passengers at maximum occupancy.

If that sounds like too many ships to get your head around, note that all 22 of the vessels in operation, as well as the three on order, fall into six distinct classes. The ships within each of the classes have similar sizes and onboard attractions. That makes them a good choice for someone who wants to try MSC Cruises but isn't eager to travel with huge crowds. The oldest ships in the MSC Cruises fleet thus appeal to a subset of MSC Cruises fans who prefer more intimacy in a cruise vessel and don't mind giving up some onboard amenities to get it. Unveiled in 2001, it's not just the oldest MSC Cruises ship but one of the smallest MSC Cruises ships, too — far smaller than the newest MSC Cruises vessels. Measuring just 65,542 gross tons, it's just a third the size of the largest MSC Cruises ship (MSC World Europa) and has far fewer venues.

Back in 2008, when the ships in this series began debuting, they were among the biggest cruise vessels in the world, and they still are relatively large by cruise ship standards — if not quite as big as the latest MSC Cruises ships. Additionally, MSC World Europa has six pools and 14 hot tubs, making it one of the most pool-covered ships at sea. The watery offerings include an Aquapark with multiple waterslides that integrate virtual reality technology. Add those in, and MSC Cruises operates 10 of the world's 35 biggest cruise ships. We have great respect for the world’s oceans and we while we sail an increasing number of guests across the globe, we continuously aim to reduce our impact on the environment. Through the use of modern technologies and environmentally friendly materials, we are effectively lowering the environmental impact of our cruises.

MSC Cruises currently has three new cruise ships on order — all sister vessels to the line's new MSC World Europa. The first to arrive will be MSC World America in 2025, which is scheduled to be deployed in Florida. Two more of the so-called World-class vessels are scheduled for completion in 2026 and 2027. Measuring 184,011 gross tons, MSC Euribia is one of the biggest cruise ships in the world — only 10 cruise vessels are bigger. That's the almost-as-new MSC World Europa, which debuted in December 2022. At 215,863 gross tons, MSC World Europa is the sixth-largest cruise ship in the world.

That means you could be sharing your vacation with more than 8,000 people. The next three ships in the series — MSC Grandiosa, MSC Virtuosa and MSC Euribia — offer even more outlets. They are slightly stretched versions of the first two ships, a subclass of the series known as Meraviglia Plus. MSC Seaside and MSC Seaview can carry 4,132 passengers at double occupancy (5,336 passengers with every berth filled). All of the ships also have a water park with waterslides and a hanging bridge feature, a sports court, Formula 1 race car simulators, virtual arcade games and bowling and an XD cinema (featuring 3D movies plus immersive special effects, such as moving seats).

The salvage of the Costa Concordia was the most expensive such operation in history, with an estimated cost of $1.2bn. The operation, led by a wisecracking South African named Nick Sloane, involved first moving the capsized vessel into an upright position, and then slowly shifting it into deeper water. In such an unprecedented operation, environmental contamination was a constant threat, with tonnes of rotting food, passenger belongings and other items still located on the vessel.

An array 30 metal flotation chambers have been attached along the sides of the ship. They're full of water now but are being pumped out so they can act as giant water wings and lift the Concordia. As workers began to break apart the ship in Genoa, and they discovered the body of Russel Rebello, an Indian waiter. The married commander, now 54, was accompanied by his lover, Domnica Cemortan, a classically trained dancer from Moldova. Autoworkers at a Volkswagen assembly plant in Chattanooga, Tennessee, voted Friday night to join the United Auto Workers after two previous organizing attempts fell short.

How to spend 10 days exploring the Croatian islands

A decade after that harrowing night, the survivors are grateful to have made it out alive. None of the survivors who spoke with Cobiella have been on a cruise since that day. The calamity caused changes in the cruise industry like carrying more lifejackets and holding emergency drills before leaving port. "I felt like (my daughters) were going to get trampled, and putting my arms around them and just holding them together and letting the sea of people go by us." Ananias and her family declined Costa’s initial $14,500 compensation offered to each passenger and sued Costa, a unit of U.S.-based Carnival Corp., to try to cover the cost of their medical bills and therapy for the post-traumatic stress they have suffered.

Survivors, salvage workers and locals: the lives changed by Costa Concordia

“I did that to calm the passengers down, I feared that otherwise there would be panic,” Schettino said in his defence at trial. Saturday marks 25 years since the massacre at Columbine High School in Littleton, Colorado, in which two gunmen killed 12 students and a teacher. His father spoke to Karen Morfitt about the far-reaching legacy his son left behind. We look back at the life and career of the longtime host of "Sunday Morning," and "one of the most enduring and most endearing" people in broadcasting.

The final mad scramble to evacuate the listing liner and then the extraordinary generosity of Giglio islanders who offered shoes, sweatshirts and shelter until the sun rose and passengers were ferried to the mainland. “I imagine it like a nail stuck to the wall that marks that date, as a before and after,” he said, recounting how he joined the rescue effort that night, helping pull ashore the dazed, injured and freezing passengers from lifeboats. The blackout after the ship's engine room flooded and its generators failed.

And on Thursday, as he arrived for the commemorative Mass, he received an award from the Civil Protection Agency. Mr Verusio wrote that they died ''because they were unable to find any space in a lifeboat on deck four, on the left-hand side, and they were then directed to the right-hand side by crew members on the same deck but as they were crossing the inside corridor ... They fell into a hole that had been created when the ship rolled onto its right side.

Dr. John Wiens from the University of Arizona believes that number is far higher based on his research. He says climate change is quickening the threat of extinction for species, including a 3-million-year-old lizard population previously found in the Arizona mountains. Crews have finally completed the salvage and are towing the Costa Concorida to a scrapyard in Northern Italy. Kevin Rebello had become close to many Giglio residents and rescuers during the months that divers searched for his brother.

Search for missing people

But for the passengers on board and the residents who welcomed them ashore, the memories of that harrowing, freezing night remain vividly etched into their minds. The anniversary comes as the cruise ship industry, shut down in much of the world for months because of the coronavirus pandemic, is again in the spotlight because of COVID-19 outbreaks that threaten passenger safety. The U.S. Centers for Disease Control last month warned people to avoid cruises, regardless of their vaccination status, because of the infection risk.

To lessen any potential damage, oil booms were placed around the wreckage, and in February 2012 salvage workers began removing more than 2,000 tons of fuel; the undertaking was completed the following month. The captain of the Costa Condordia, Francesco Schettino, is still on trial for his role in the disaster. With any luck, the evidence of the crime will be gone before the trial ends. It's the biggest salvage operation ever attempted -- and one of the most risky, reports CBS News correspondent Mark Phillips.

The Costa Concordia began to drift and, investigators later explained, list as a result of water in the damaged hull. By 10.15pm, the Italian coastguard began getting reports of trouble on board directly from the passengers, but Schettino still did not react. The 3,299 passengers who boarded the Costa Concordia on 13 January in the Italian port city of Civitavecchia for their seven-day cruise around the Mediterranean had much to enjoy. There were 1,500 cabins, one of the largest fitness centres at sea, a Turkish bath and solarium, a poolside movie theatre on the main pool deck, and 13 bars, including one devoted to cognac.

The story of a passenger who drowned after giving up his seat in a lifeboat features in a report released by prosecutors. The plan is to raise the wreck just a couple of yards at first and then float her into slightly deeper water to check for leaks of toxic materials and secure the flotation chambers more securely. Only then will the Costa Concordia be raised another 30 feet or so and finally towed away. Divers have been moving within the wreck, removing what they can, but the remains of one of the victims, a crew member on the ship, have never been found.
