Barista of the year
Carluccio's, the Italian restaurant and delicatessen chain from Antonio and Priscilla Carluccio, held its first Barista of the Year competition as part of its commitment to training.
Local heats took place at all nine Carluccio's caffés, with ten contestants making it to the final at the St Christopher's Place caffé.
The contestants were tested on their knowledge of the subject, as well as on their practical skills. The baristas had to prepare the perfect expresso, latte, macchiato and two blends of cappucino, Milan and Napoli, and were judged on appearance, presentation, taste, foam consistency, temperature, correct proportions of milk and coffee. The winner was presented with a trip to Italy to see Carluccio's coffee being processed. Details: +44 (0)20 7935 5927
