地道美語聽力播客:Cafe Living
One of my favorite hang-outs is a cafe near where I live called Bolivar in Santa Monica. It's only five minutes away , and its never too busy to find a table. Sometimes it can be bustling, but that's usually just in the morning during rush hour or at lunchtime . The owners are from Venezuela, and always have some cool music playing in the background.
Yesterday, I decided to take my New York Times and my laptop and kill a few hours there. I ordered the usual . I'm a regular , the folks there know I want a Vanilla Latte with a doubleshot of espresso, hold the whipped cream. Sometimes I'll order a coffee cake if I'm feeling a little hungry. The cafe also has soup and sandwich menu you can order off of.
Cafes are great for people watching . Sometimes I just sit and watch the people come and go. You get all types at this cafe. Yesterday, for example, a mother comes in with her three daughters, and one of the little girls ordered a latte! This being Los Angeles, you have yourtypical mix of screenwriters, out-of-work actors, and various Hollywood wannabes . They make for a colorful mix most of the time. Me, I just sit and read my paper. I'm no actor, but someday I would like to direct
