SUGGEST: Enjoying Low-Budget Coffee

alt

In the past, Jakarta had a pioneer of middle-class mobile coffee called Kopi Jago. Its bicycle cart was distinctive red and travelled around the Jakarta area. However, after public interest in mobile coffee increased, other types of coffee emerged. There were standard cafes, simple stalls, and even carts on the side of the road.

While on my way to the workshop to have my motorcycle's horn repaired, I saw a bright blue coffee cart nearby with the word SUGGEST written on it and the tagline ‘ngopi dulu biar gak salah paham’ (have a coffee first so you don't get the wrong idea). Hmmm... not a bad tagline. After all, coffee can improve one's focus.

Since my motorbike had just been dismantled and the root of the problem had been identified, I stopped by the coffee cart and ordered a cup of ice vanilla coffee latte. I asked the barista to make it low sugar. It didn’t take long for my order to be ready. After paying, I returned to the workshop and found a seat to enjoy my vanilla coffee while observing the damage to my motorbike. It turned out to be not too bad.

What does low-budget coffee on the side of the road taste like? Well... the coffee seems to be just a hint of flavour, but that's okay, it can be used as a placebo effect. It's okay once in a while, but don't do it too often because it contains more sugar than coffee.

There were also many other variants and varieties, like a compact cafe. Nowadays, people flock to buy coffee for their satisfaction. Coffee has become part of their lifestyle.

Although I don't really like it, I appreciate the efforts of the people who are selling it. After all, they are not cheating or setting high prices. The prices they set are in line with the quality they provide. In this economy, as long as you are doing something good to meet your financial needs, I support it. Taking action to survive is better than giving up and doing nothing.

That's all for my story about coffee carts today. If I buy another brand of coffee with a similar concept next time, I will let you know. See you in my next post.
