Coffee Time

Coffee time in the morning should be memorable experience with quiet time for introspection. Coffee should be sipped, not gulped down. Yet, coffee time was debauched by poor customer service at various fast food joints and by idiotic customers. Shitty coffee in a nice environment is way better than decent coffee in a shitty environment.

Enter Nescafé® Taster’s Choice® instant coffee ... actually it’s not bad at all. Fast to prepare ... hot water courtesy the microwave oven in the “old folks home” community room. That’s 16 ounces of coffee for pennies. No shitty customer service. No loud Korean senior citizens. No bullshit.

Only extra time and care must be taken to thoroughly clean the Contigo® travel cup. Otherwise, the old coffee residue will taint the flavor of the already-marginal instant coffee. And, the ambience at The Lanai in Ala Moana Center at 8am is very nice. In all honesty, there’s no possible return to the horrid fast food coffee experience.

Warning: Do NOT wash coffee travel cup with dish detergent. Residue taints coffee. Use baking soda with water instead.
