"First time I've seen you, outsider?" said Barista Tao to Ricky, "We don't have many guests here, most of them I know, even if I don't know them, but as long as I've been here, I'm more or less impressed." ”

"Locals, who studied in the demon capital before, worked there for a few years, and rarely came back except for the Chinese New Year. Ricky answered the barista's question, "Come back and rest for a while, and come in and try a café you haven't seen before, have you been open for a long time?"

"This store hasn't been open for long, a few months, the boss used to open a store in the demon capital, and now he comes back here to open a store because the town is relatively quiet. ”

Through the conversation, Ricky learned that the barista's name was Ah Tao, and he had been working with the owner of this fateful café for a long time, and the boss had also come here after closing the shop in the demon capital. Tao is not a local, but he seems to have a good talent for languages, and the local dialect is not much different from the locals, and if he doesn't pay attention, Ricky can't hear it.

"Mandheling is a dark roasted bean with a great taste and aroma with a pleasant acidity. Although none of ours are from Puwanne, they are also the best boutique Mandheling, and the baking is done by the store manager, and the quality is absolutely not to be said. ”

Tao is a very talkative person, and he can't stop talking about coffee until a new customer arrives and places an order.

At work, Ah Tao became focused, not at all the look of being very talkative, it seems to be a master who has been engaged in many years, Ricky wants to know how long Ah Tao has been in this industry, barista is a relatively difficult profession to enter, not only difficult to enter, it is not easy to be proficient, some people are even willing to spend a lifetime studying, maybe this is the charm of coffee, Ricky can understand a thing or two, but he does not very understand where this charm comes from.

Strictly speaking, Ricky is also a barista who has entered the industry, although the college major is to learn Western cooking, but coffee will also be touched, and the work after graduation will often be exposed to coffee making, no matter where the bar, coffee is an indispensable product, but the tendency is different.

Most casual bars or restaurants only have a few milk coffee and a few items. Cappuccino, Mocha, Latte, French Oulet, Caramel Macchiato, Comberland, Mexican Cocoa, most of these milk coffees are good choices, but according to the problem of acceptance, Comberblue can only be seen in some cafes, even in big cities like the demon capital, there are only a few choose to produce.

Ricky seems to have seen this uncommon name in the menu of the 'Fate Cafe'. Comblanco is also a more alternative product in milk coffee, where a thick layer of cream is squeezed on top of a whole cup of espresso, and then drunk with a sip of cream coffee.

To be honest, not to mention that most people can't accept it, Ricky was a little difficult to swallow at first. It is difficult to reconcile the sweetness and greasy taste of the cream with the bitterness and astringency, and it is only after tasting it that you can slowly understand the taste of this cup of coffee.

Comberblue and Macchiato can be said to be sisters, both use espresso bases, Comberblue adds whipped cream, and macchiato adds milk foam. However, compared to the popularity of macchiato, Comberblue is a little embarrassing.

Probably because of the taste of people in Guangdong Province, anyway, when Ricky was studying and working in the demon capital, he could think of a store with Comblan, which could be counted on one hand, and the order rate was very low, often not seeing a cup for a month.

Seeing the Kang Bao Lan on the menu, Ricky suddenly became interested, but the barista Ah Tao was a little busy now, and a table of four people came in just now, each with a drink and a snack.

Snacks naturally have nothing to do with Ah Tao, but the drink has to be made by Ah Tao, the barista is just a title, like this in a small café, there is generally only one bar staff at the same time, so coffee drinks or cocktails are handled by Ah Tao, or by other members of the station when Ah Tao is resting and getting off work.

"Can you get used to the taste of Comberland, I don't know how long it's been since a cup of this has been sold here. If I don't do this business, or even I don't like the taste of Sapphire Blue, it's an indescribable feeling. After making other orders, Tao talked to Ricky while making a Comber Blue coffee base in the bar.

The espresso coffee base played out through the espresso machine, the rich aroma can be smelled even by Ricky outside the bar, and the barista Ah Tao immediately piled the beaten whipped cream on top of the coffee base, and the seemingly simple cup of Comber Blue was made.

"Hello, this is your Comber Blue. Tao brought it to Ricky.

Ricky sniffed it, didn't hesitate much, and drank the entire cup of Comber Blue in one go. Feeling, how to say, if you are not a hobbyist, it is estimated that you will give up this cup of things as soon as you import it, and Ricky will not be so tasteless, making this kind of action in front of the barista is simply a provocation to the barista.

Ah Tao is quite good at handling this cup of Kangbao Blue, and the time is controlled more accurately, so the mixture of two things with different tastes is also unique.

But it's still a little short of Ricky's ideal taste, "Not bad." "Ricky's evaluation is only three words, which is quite high for Ricky.

"I still haven't been able to control the time well, and if it was Viagra, I guess it would taste even better. Ah Tao was a little frustrated when he heard Ricky's evaluation, and the usual guests' comments on the coffee he made were nothing more than 'very good' and 'so delicious', and Ah Tao hadn't changed for a while.

However, Ah Tao will not show it in front of the guests, at this time, it is good to smile.

"Viagra, is the shopkeeper here?" asked Ricky.

"Yes, the beans in the coffee shop are all roasted by Viagra itself, and the coffee made by Viagra is much better than mine. Maybe there is no list now, Ah Tao's words box opened again, "But the time you come now is not very good, Viagra usually doesn't come at this kind of time." ”

"That's a bit of a pity, but it's okay, I'll be in Spring City for the next few months, and your store manager will be in the store at night, right?"

"Yes, it will. ”

Uh, I don't know if Li Wei and Ah Tao are a little bit of a heart, as soon as Ah Tao finished speaking, Li Wei came over and slapped his face.
