Find Your Niche and get your caffeine fix! by Kerrie Sparks // food-sparks.com
We’ve been exploring Dallas niches lately, and we sure do love the digs over at The Pearl Cup. Two lovely ladies who hail from Austin, Rita Davis and Carlene Saelg, are making their dreams come true—and garnering quite a fan base—as they make their stake in Dallas. We sat down with
our Mexican Hot Chocolate on a chilly December morning and pondered a few questions for the gals.
KS: How did the concept of The Pearl Cup come about?
PC: Upon moving to Dallas, we wanted to create an environment that was a hip, but comfortable, coffee-centric gathering place for the community.
KS: You’ve made a name for yourselves with The Pearl Latte™, but I have to say your Mexican Hot Chocolate is pretty kickin’ – and it’s pretty! What items on your menu do you gravitate to most?
PC: We both love our Italian cappuccino! It's hard to choose a favorite because of our routines that involve coffee. For Rita, Pearl Cup Blend or single origin drip in the morning and cappuccinos later in the day. For Carlene, Italian cappuccinos all the way! We also have several fabulous teas. We use Sterling Tea out of Rockwall, their teas are delicious! Rita drinks it hot or cold!
16 Key Magazine • March 2012 • keydallas.com
KS: Where are your beans are sourced ? PC: We do use a local roaster, Eiland, for our house blend, espresso and some tasty drip coffees. We also use Cuvee, out of the Austin area. We also have a guest espresso which changes every few months.
KS: Your interior space is very community and user friendly, and I love the use of mix-and-match tables and chairs, both modern and retro. What was most important when deciding on the ambiance you wanted the shop to onvey?
PC: As far as the ambiance, it needed to be welcoming; modern but not too sterile or cold. Rita has dealt in antiques for decades and has always appreciated the warmth and character that is found with an older piece of furniture or accessory. The shop is dynamic, always changing in some
subtle way.
And there you have it. Hitch up your MacBook, grab a book, or maybe those stacks of magazines collecting dust on your dining room table, and visit Rita and Carlene at The Pearl Cup. They’ll be nice to you,
I swear. You can while away the day sipping your addiction of choice as you “work from home” (read: updating FaceBook and
LinkedIn), and they won’t even kick you out! Mi casa es su caffeinated casa! Errr, whatever, you get it.
