Bhai aaj kal ke hipster cafes mein coffee peena matlab apni aukaat aur dimaag dono ka apmaan karwana hai!

Indiranagar ke ek cafe mein ghusa main. Interior aisa banaya hua tha jaise building ka construction adha chhod diya ho—cement ki deewarein, nange bulb aur lakdi ke phatte. Isko bolte hain 'Industrial Minimalist Aesthetic'.

Menu khola. Normal cold coffee dhoondi toh mili nahi. Wahan likha tha:

'Single-Origin Anaerobic Fermented Pour-Over with Notes of Wild Berries and Wet Forest Bark'—₹750 plus 18% GST!

Maine mangwa liya. Barista bhai aaya, uske gale mein leather apron tha aur shakal pe aisi seriousness thi jaise nuclear weapon assemble kar raha ho. 15 minute tak usne ek conical flask mein garam paani tapkaya.

Maine ek chhota sa sip liya... Bhai kasam se! Aisa laga jaise kisi ne hawan kund ki raakh ko garam paani mein ghol ke thoda sa nimbu nichod diya ho!

Maine pucha: 'Bhai isme coffee kahan hai?'

Barista bola: 'Sir, you have to develop the palate. The acidity reflects the soil of Chikmagalur.'

Maine bola: 'Bhai Chikmagalur ki mitti Kanpur ke thele pe ₹10 ki adrak wali kadak chai ke aage fail hai!'
