CP #8 Dana


       The last time we were at Atomic I gave Hwa Won a list of what I thought were the best coffee shops in Tallahassee. Atomic of course was on there, and another that I think is pretty decent is Black Dog Café. Hwa Won was very interested in meeting there because it sits right next to Lake Ella.
    Each time I go to this particular coffee shop I ask the barista behind the bar to make me something of their choice. I enjoy the surprise! Hwa Won seems to enjoy it as well, because she asks for the same coffee as me, even when she doesn’t know what it’s going to taste like.
    Somehow our conversation turned to ice cream shops in South Korea, the United States, and Turkey. I told Hwa Won how my South Korean roommate worked at a famous Baskin Robbins in Seoul when he lived there. It was so famous that he even ended up serving ice cream to a few celebrities. She knew of the Baskin Robbins and said that they offered over 50 flavors.
     I was so surprised. It didn’t sound anything like the Baskin Robbins that I was used to in the United States. She told me that it was very different and was surprised as well when she went to a Baskin Robbins in the states for the first time. She was so excited to show her kids and was disappointed by the result. I told her if she wanted to get good ice cream she should try Lofty Pursuits in Tallahassee. They make their own ice cream along with fun sundaes and shakes. I hope she goes there with her kids. If she likes ice cream, she will love this place.
