Panera Bread – Fenton, MI
Panera Bread Fenton, MI
Me: “Americano, small, for here please”
Server: “Sure, this time in English”
Me: “Okay?! Espresso w/ hot water, small, for here please”
Server: “Oh, that sounds much simpler”
Yeah, I guess I should have known what I was getting myself into by going to a Panera Bread in Fenton, Michigan. But that one took me back. They’ve got a mocha, latte, capuccino and espresso on the menu, but nobody knows how the hell to make an americano? Wow! Talk about missing Boulder.

These are hardly the ramblings of the self righteous condescending know it all amateur coffee snob they used to be, what happened?
Just a few short months ago you had the art of tasting coffee mastered and were laying down your own vigilante justice against those who drank *gasp* Vic’s coffee, where did you go?
Oh yeah, it appears you went to Michigan, please stay. Forever.

You guys wouldn’t know good coffee if it slapped you in the face…
What did you say you are, environmental consultants (unemployed) or some crap?
It would be like me criticizing your work because “I’m in the environment” and acting like I know two shits about what you do.
Look for my blog soon:
“losers who can’t get enough work to afford an office that bitch about the places nice enough to let them hang out for $5 a day, and why they suck”

Yeah, I know breaking out of the Boulder bubble is inconceivable for some. And we’re the snobs. Huh.
And no, it’s more like customers criticizing your “work” because we don’t like it. Or for the shops that are good, raving about what we do like. Look at it as a way to improve your offering rather than soldiering on with blinders on. You know, alert you to the discontent of your patrons before having to close the doors on your downtown shop. Aw-shucks.
