The smell of coffee lingers in the air even though we didn't order any. I am not a big fan of coffee and neither is my mom. I watch in delight as they spray whipped cream all over my Mint Chocolate Iced Shake like thing. My mom goes up to get the drinks well I sit and think about American Culture. Like I said before, we don't like coffee but coffee shops normally have iced tea, which my mom loves. My whole family likes to drink tea but we rarely do. We get served a lot of tea in Asia. Well in other Asian countries. Don't get me wrong we are served tea here too but coffee is the one that is everywhere! 'Coffee places are where you meet people,' says our neighbor, 'That is were I meet my husband.' I am sure you are thinking 'Starbucks would make so much money there!' Well that is wrong very wrong. I was stunned too! I have seen two Starbucks(Starbucxs??) the whole time I have been here!!! My parents say that it is because South Korea already had a lot of coffee shops before Starbucks came here. As my mom and I finish our delicious drinks we think about how lovely and relaxing it is in here. As we leave I turn around and see the packed coffee house. Wow I think there are a lot of people here.
My tribute to coffee (in poem form):
By Diana
Humm didditaly doo,Here is some coffee for you!
Drink it sip by sip,
but don't bite your lip!
Coffee is Korean,
Were you surprised?
Well I was too!
