As the waitress was pouring John’s Guinness into his glass I noticed something and couldn’t get [...]

To me, the most satisfying cup of coffee is served in a diner where the waitress fills it up at least 6 times (without asking) before you get your two eggs over medium with bacon and hashbrowns. Other than that, at any specialty coffee shop on any street corner I’m usually a dark roast girl. [...]
