subject: Coffee Makes The World Go Around [print this page] We all drink coffee at least once a dayWe all drink coffee at least once a day. Some people even drink it throughout the day especially in the workplace. Outside of our offices, we go to cafes to catch up with friends, discuss business with a potential client, and even go on a date. Today, cafes are sprouting all over the country. There are the bigger cafe chains that have franchises all over the world, and then there's your neighbourhood coffee shop. Whether you prefer to go to a cafe where you can feel at home anywhere in the world, or you prefer the smaller cafe down the street from your house, coffee, to a certain degree, makes the world go around.
Coffee was first discovered in Ethiopia, and through trading, eventually found its way to Europe and the rest of the world. Coffee contains caffeine, which is, in essence, a stimulant. Drinking coffee results in feeling more awake, more energized, and allows people to feel more alert during the day. When at work, people drink coffee to stay on their toes. Some people "need" it to wake up in the morning. And some people just like the flavor of it. Either way, coffee or its effects have resulted in coffee being one of the most-drunk beverages in the entire world.
Cafes have their own attractions for people. Compared to a restaurant or bar, cafes generally have a more relaxed, laidback feel to their establishments. Generally, cafes serve all kinds of coffee and coffee-based beverages, as well as pastries and small meals. And because cafes are generally quieter, it's more conducive to having conversations with people, which perhaps account for its popularity. Bars are generally too loud to have a decent conversation with someone, and free-flowing alcohol can impair your judgment. Restaurants, on the other hand, are more formal settings. Depending on your purpose for being there, cafes are better places if you want to be able to talk to someone and if you're looking for a more casual setting. All the cafeterias have their own cafe equipment in creating their most delicious coffee that they will serve to their beloved customers.
The best cafes also feature a wide variety of different kinds of coffee in different areas around the world. Location, soil, climate, roasting methods, and a number of other factors affect the taste of coffee. The most popular, by far, is Arabica, followed by Robusta. These types of coffee beans are the most commonly grown in the world. And each cafe has their own way of roasting or preparing the beans. Most cafes guard their methods carefully because the way the beans are prepared and roasted is the key to the particular and unique flavors of their coffee.
