Going by Mr Goggle everybody has a favorite café. Everybody rates their café as the best.
My cafe makes the best coffee in Hobart. Better than others.
Why do so many people tell Mr Goggle that their cafe is the best. Why
tell other people to come to your café. Crowd the tables. Eat all the food. Dilute
the staff’s attention. I can’t tell people to avoid my cafe but I can say
nothing.
I return home and browse the internet. The café I have just been in has
comments about its coffee. It is organic, fair traded and environmentally
friendly. There is further info about different types of coffees. It rates very
well. Nothing about the cups, the
tables, the menu, the service, when they serve the food, the ingredients or
health of the food.
The café that seems to rate highest on the internet is the one that
attracts most internet uses. The café full of people on their mobile phones or typing
away on their lap tops.
I rate a cafe highly if it does the basics well. Provides good food and
drink in a relaxed comfortable atmosphere with good service. And convenient for
me.
I remember going to a café in the country and receiving a cup of coffee
made with instant coffee. The owner was very proud of the coffee and I
celebrated the last of a breed. I couldn’t help but think this man is
endangered. I had better enjoy this cup. He won’t last. He will be replaced by
an espresso machine and paper cups.
