A moan of ecstasy escapes my man’s lips as the girthy vegan burrito leaves his mouth. He doesn’t know what’s in it, but the pop of magnanimous chorizo made from the slaughtered unmeats of some sort of ensorcelled vegetable proteins puts him in a trance of abject surprise and quiet contemplation of the numinous.
While he zones out into a tasty oblivion, I sip some somewhat lackluster black drip. Drinkable to be sure, a world above motel or McDonalds breakfast swill, but not the “3rd Wave” Ethiopian or single origin brew from Bali that’ll knock your socks off if you’re looking for that sort of thing.

It was overly greasy and barely had any bacon. I’ll come back for the coffee but I think I’ll stay away from the food...

It was absurd — absolutely nothing was good. The chicken and waffles was literally chicken tenders—microwaved and crappy not home made waffles. The coffee wad also over sweetened and weak. the chai tasted like pure caramel syrup...
