Tomsche Posted April 18, 2016 When news reached the settlement that Cpt. Cooke was on route to Quinnsville aboard his newest ship, the HMHV Athena, it was time to present him with the real treasure of Cocovia. While our settlement might not put the emphasis on military might, relegating this order of affairs mostly to the neighbour settlement of King`s Harbour, it is of course a matter that needs discussing in detail. And to that end, what better place to do it at the Clam and Cup. In this all talk high trendy bar at Quinnsville, the coffee beans are prepared into the most ancient of arts, the Civet Kowi Lupak. In this most time honoured tradition, the beans are fed to civet cats, and then their excrements are boiled into the black gold. So the first plate of Quinnsville was ready at Brick Mania Wetteren, and now we have begun work at expanding her for Antwerpen in november by hopefully a full two plates more, as well as some smaller `hinterland` builds in the future (plantation, mine, that sort of thingies...). The coffee bar was of course the first that needed to be build, as that is the sole reason a caffeine addicted geek like me picked that island to settle on to begin with, hope you like it! I will be licensing it as a small factory, though that will have to wait until may 1st, as I used up my maximum of 3 allowed registrations in a month for april already ;-) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CelesAurivern Posted April 18, 2016 Ah, another lovely old school looking building. A cuppa costs how much again?! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TitusV Posted April 18, 2016 Great to see this in BoBS, but I don't drink coffee I like the facade Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BrickOn Posted April 18, 2016 Great addition to QV! Will this become a chainstore and spread to other towns, one on every corner? Maybe you can start a franchise with the clam and cup logo... The civet cat scene upstairs is really funny, I assume the expression that guy has is due to the smell? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tomsche Posted April 18, 2016 Actually his expression is based on a certain Belgian tourist who wanted to taste that very, very expensive coffee and after shelving way to much money for a cup learned on how it was made... Hmmmmmm, SKA, how does it work for a coffee emporium in the game! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Captain Braunsfeld Posted April 18, 2016 I am considering giving up coffee ... although the building is nice. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
blackdeathgr Posted April 18, 2016 Great imagination, excellent shop sign and above all my favorite Disney princess in close up! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ayrlego Posted April 18, 2016 Very nice, especially the Kopi Lewak part. I had actually toyed with the idea myself! Perhaps it's best not to let Captain Cooke know how the beans are prepared....? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tomsche Posted April 18, 2016 It`ll depend on how the talks go wether Cpt Cooke will get 'black gold' or 'liquid sh*t" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
