Food and drink related observation
I asked the chap in the coffee shop for a Latte
'without the foam'

He said
'Ah! a wet latte'

What the fuck? It's a liquid you noob.

Latte? Foam?
If you want a regular latte do you have to order a wet cappuccino?

In my limited experience if you order a latte
you basically get a latte with a load of cappuccino foam on top.

A decent place will give you something called a 'flat white' which is basically what I'm after, but apparently 'wet latte' is a latte without all the fluff on it.

I am baffled Flappers.
How can I be a hip, urbane art-man when I can't even get my coffee the correct wetness.

Because you should be drinking espresso

Drinking coffee without milk requires half-decent coffee
I will not find this on the Strand at 7:34

That's fair enough actually
The starbucks near me makes terrible coffee but their White milky chocolate mocha thing is lovely.
