Coffee
Patrick and I happily set off to our newly found tea house this morning for coffee. We were a little disappointed to find the coffee tasted awful today. We shouldn’t have been so quick to get excited about the place.
Luckily the staff were very sweet, so came over to ask Patrick how to make the coffee better and after thanking him for his lesson dashed off to prepare us another cup. The lattes were much improved the second time around so hopefully after Patrick’s wise teachings we have a nice coffee to look forward to on weekends.
Our complaining about the quality of the coffee and acting like know-it-alls must have impressed the owner, who promptly cornered Patrick to ask him if I would like to manage their cafe for them. What a way to get a job!
Patrick politely (I hope) declined, so I might just have to go and hang about impressive companies complaining until I get a really good job offer.

I’m off to the cafe to complain about their coffee!
Perhaps you could start your own cafe.
It’s good to hear that you’re both settling in. When will you move into your new place?
I may be coming to Beijing later this year (though looks quite far from Hefei).
Hi Johno, I’ve always wanted to open a cafe here, although the rate that businesses seem to appear and disappear here makes me a bit nervous.
We should be moving to our new place this week some time I hope, although I think it will take a while for all our furniture to arrive.
I’m embarrassed to admit I’ve never been to Beijing… so we might have to come and see you if you do go!
