Rainy and gloomy outdoors, wanted something nice and hot to warm our selves, so we decided on driving over to Stafford's in Porterville. Let me say...the streets were wet, but the inside of Stafford's was cozy with plenty of seating available. My wife chose to have a hot cafe mocha with a chocolate scone, and I had a cafe Americano with a scone as well. The drinks served were really hot, and had to cool a bit before enjoying them. Both of us really enjoyed our coffees and our scones. I still had plenty of coffee left over, and decided to purchase a slice of their zucchini coffee cake, and told my wife that I'd be right back as I went to my vehicle to get my wallet. However, upon my return, and as I was ready to pay, the server advised me that the previous customer, a younger person had already paid for my slice of coffee cake, and as I turned around to thank the person they had already exited the store. I felt very grateful for what had just happened to me. I sat down and really enjoyed my treat. The coffee cake had the perfect combination of crust with cake and most definitely made with lots of love. As a fellow baker, I always like to shout out whenever I am very pleased with when someone does a great job in making a difference in my culinary experience, and I want to show my appreciation by voicing my satisfaction. Service was excellent, as was the coffee with our treats. So, if your out and about, and want something hot, and maybe a treat to go with it...try Stafford's Chocolates in Porterville, and be pleasantly surprised as we have. By the way, I'd like to personally Thank the person who paid for my treat.
