Paramount Coffee Project

In a big, sun-drenched space that could be a gallery, try artisan coffees from around the world—and sometimes four from the same country. The slow-brewed coffees are prepared at the brew bar, so that’s a good place to watch the action. They’re always mixing things up—for ‘cafe takeovers,’ a coffee company will make Paramount its home for a week. Saturdays there’s a Locals Market, where Talia turns the back section into a little veggie house. Pick up a filter coffee as well as a big, beautiful seasonal produce hamper. If you get weird things like daikon, look out for the recipes Talia posts online for guidance on what to cook.
