CAFFEINATION

Grand Opening Slated for November 8, 2008

Philadelphia, PA, October 20, 2008

-- Mitchell Cohen, former Vice President of EB Games for more than 15 years, has adapted his superior business aptitude to the remodeling of the coffee shop concept. A graduate of the American Barista and Coffee School of Portland, OR, Mr. Cohen understands every intricate detail of running a coffee outlet, and he also knows how to brew an amazing cup of coffee! After scouring the globe for the perfect roast, Mr. Cohen selected Yirgacheffe, a single varietal from Ethiopia, as the taste his customers can most enjoy. This award-winning coffee, supplied by Morning Star Coffee Roasters in West Chester, PA, was featured in Coffee Review where it scored an astounding 91 points for its "balanced, sweet, deeply dimensioned integration of rounded acidy notes, crisp roastiness and a lush, apricot-toned fruit." From this roast, Caffeination will offer a full line of espresso drinks, including a seductive "candy bar latte" comprised of chocolate and caramel, as well of cold drinks including espresso drinks with real ice cream. Continuing his cutting-edge theme, for tea drinkers he is offering the stylish new Red Tea Espresso. As the world's first tea espresso, Red Espresso won Best New Product at the Specialty Coffee Association of America's 20th Annual Conference and Exhibition held in Minneapolis from May 2-5, 2008, the world's largest coffee show.

Expanding beyond the typical coffee shop model, Mr. Cohen is emphasizing the theme of caffeine. Display cases and shelves are already bursting with caffeinated products including mints, chewing gum, sunflower seeds, lollipops, chocolate covered coffee beans, soap, lip balm, and so much more. If you can't find the caffeinated product you seek, just ask and we're sure Mr. Cohen can find it! For those who have already felt the caffeine rush and are looking to fill their stomachs, Caffeination will also offer breakfast and lunch. For breakfast, the staff will serve up egg and cheese with bacon and ham on focaccia, whole wheat, sourdough, or a bagel, as well as fresh-baked muffins or bagels with cream cheese. At lunchtime, options include scrumptious chicken roma paninnis, roasted peppers or tomatoes with mozzarella, grilled chicken, veggie wraps, and a variety of salads. And, for all the sweet tooths out there, the shop will always have plenty of cakes, cookies, pies, and pastries to satisfy you. Or try one of the frappes (espresso or non-espresso) - made with real ice cream!

Way to go Mitch. I would definately love to stop in this place. :-)
