"A neat, futuristic coffee shop with blond-wood tables and large glass walls that serves as the narrator’s pre-recording ritual stop. He orders the same items each time — a cold brew (letting the barista pick the blend), a green juice, and a brown-butter blondie — noting the blondie is often a bit burnt but redeemed by a dusting of sea-salt flakes; he finishes it in two bites while walking across the plaza toward work." - Rima Parikh, Margalit Cutler
