We were back at Black Dog, sitting outside and sipping coffees. Jeehoon
ordered your average Americana black coffee. I ordered an unknown concoction
created by the current barista hanging around behind the bar. I don’t have a
coffee preference. I enjoy the surprise of flavors. After telling Jeehoon this,
he said that people would do the same thing at the Baskin Robbins he worked at
in South Korea.
Working as a student in South Korea is extremely rare. However, Jeehoon
wanted the experience and of course, the money. The particular Baskin Robbins
he worked at held three full stories and was considered to be extremely famous.
He had even managed to take the orders of a variety of South Korean
celebrities, including movie stars. I was amazed. Baskin Robbins was most
definitely not nearly as exciting in the United States. I couldn’t even think
of anything comparable in the U.S.
Somehow our conversation drifted to drinking life in Tallahassee. He had
unfortunately experienced the Strip, so I decided to enlighten him on the
better and varying bars within this city. Needless to say, we made plans to
meet up at Leon Pub.
