Irish Coffee lovers, listen up. The love-it-or-hate-it sweet treat is about to get bigger. For the record, we loathe the hot blend of coffee, whiskey, sugar and cream. We demand our hooch served to us ice cold.) The Buena Vista Cafe will attempt to set a Guinness World Record for the largest Irish coffee next week. (Seriously, we love shit like this. Chez Panisse should produce world's largest sprig of thyme, or Tu Lan could capture the world's largest cockroach. Or something like that.)
Bar manager Michael Carden says he's having a glass blower specially produce a 15-gallon Irish coffee glass modeled on those used at the bar. The record-breaking happens net Monday at 1 p.m., located at 2765 Hyde Street. See you there. Hic! (ABC 7)
