Breaking Bad-themed Moda roastery, pouring espresso into lab-style beakers.
Deniz Kosan, who was born in Germany, first planned the café for Brooklyn after a running joke with his cousins, one of whom resembles Walter White. When the investor pulled out, he opened in Moda in March 2015 instead, billing it as the first Coffee Super Lab. Coffee comes in test tubes and beakers under a periodic table on the wall, and upstairs a prop meth lab stands beside yellow hazmat suits that customers can put on.
Kosan roasted small batches every morning from the start, and single origins have come from Colombia, Honduras, Guatemala, Ethiopia and Rwanda. A second branch runs on Hızırbey Caddesi in Fikirtepe.
