>>18461392It's a critique on the overbooked spotfest you can get called a "sói chai latte frappuccino" with added almond and caramel syrups, typically made by scrawny bearded tattoo enthusiasts who play ukulele on the weekend and share their political views, for customers such as morbidly obese SSRI-popping birth-controlled single moms with neon hair and chemical opinions... among many.
Coffee is just coffee. Moderation, excess, doesn't matter. I want my coffee to have foamy milk and put my intestines into a sharpshooter. Strong-style cappuccinos. Technical cappuccinos. A drink you can have in 3 minutes or a whole hour and be just as entertained.
And then the leftover drying milk and coffee will leave commentary on the sides of the mug. Last week the rim actually said "pain". Barista must've potatoed it on clean up.
btw Bourdain was an entertainer, almost everything he quipped on TV was a promo.
