Sie glauben, Ihre Vorliebe für einen bestimmten Kaffee sei nur Geschmackssache? Nun ja, Ihre Bestellung verrät eine ganze Menge über Sie. Das sagt jemand, der es wissen muss: ein Barista, also jemand, der professionell Kaffeegetränke zubereitet und verkauft.

Und die Zeiten, in denen man nur einen Kaffee bestellt hat, sind schon lange vorbei. Heute können die Kunden aus etwa Flat White, Mocha, Matcha, Americano etc. auswählen.

Die Britin Colette arbeitet seit mehreren Jahren in einem Londoner Café, verrät in „iNews“, was die beliebtesten Kaffee-Bestellungen sind – und was sie über die Kunden verraten.

Espresso

Wer Espresso pur bestellt, liebt Kaffee wirklich – hier geht es um echten Geschmack, nicht um Lifestyle. Espresso-Trinker fragen laut Colette oft nach Details zu den Bohnen. Damit würden sie sich deutlich von der Kundschaft großer Kaffeeketten unterscheiden, die einfach nur schnell viel Koffein wollen.

Americano

Im Vergleich zum schlichten Filterkaffee besteht ein Americano aus Espresso, der mit heißem Wasser verlängert wird. Bestellt wird er meist von denen, die es uncool finden, einen normalen Kaffee zu nehmen. 

 Aktien investieren, um dann davon leben zu können.

Flat White

Flat White (dt.: flacher Weißer) besteht aus einem doppelten Espresso plus einer cremigen Schicht Milchschaum. Bestellt wird er besonders von trendbewussten Kreativen, denen im Cappuccino zu viel Milch ist.

Cappuccino

Cappuccinos waren das Trend-Getränk der 2000er-Jahre. Er wird in der Regel mit einem einfachen Espresso und einem gleichmäßigen Anteil an geschäumter Milch zubereitet.

Heute ist der Klassiker vor allem bei Menschen ab 40 beliebt, die es etwas süßer mögen – dank der kleinen Schicht Kakaopulver obendrauf.

Mocha

Wer es noch süßer mag, bestellt Mocha, eine Kaffee-Variation, die aus Espresso, heißer Milch sowie Schokoladensirup besteht. Interessanterweise greifen häufiger Männer zu Mochas, weiß Colette. Für viele sei es eine Möglichkeit, Koffein zu genießen, auch wenn sie Kaffee eigentlich nicht besonders mögen.

 Effekte, die ein moderater Kaffeekonsum auf das Gehirn haben kann.

Matcha Latte

Matcha-Trinker gehören meist zu zwei Typen: Entweder sie meiden Koffein bewusst oder sie kommen gerade vom Pilates – Yogamatte unter dem Arm inklusive, behauptet Colette.

Ihr Fazit: Wer Matcha liebt, ist wahrscheinlich sportlich, unter 30, ziemlich sicher eine Frau und bestellt ihn fast immer mit Hafermilch. 

BI warns Filipinos vs job offers on Facebook

 MANILA, Philippines — The Bureau of Immigration (BI) on Sunday warned the public about a trafficking scheme in which Filipinos were “sold” between online scam syndicates in Cambodia after being lured through fake overseas job offers.

The warning came after four trafficking victims, aged between 20 and 30, were repatriated from Phnom Penh and arrived at Ninoy Aquino International Airport Terminal 1 on April 19 aboard a Philippine Airlines flight. Their return was facilitated by the Philippine Embassy in Cambodia and the Inter-Agency Council Against Trafficking (Iacat). 

Investigations showed that the victims were recruited through Facebook job advertisements offering high-paying work as encoders and customer service staff, the BI said in a statement. 

However, once overseas, the victims’ passports were confiscated and they were forced to work online, posing as agents of the Federal Bureau of Investigation or as romantic partners on dating platforms to scam foreign nationals, the agency added. 

When they failed to meet targets, the victims were reportedly punished, overworked, and eventually sold or “transferred” to other syndicates as if they were commodities.

“They were treated like property — bought, sold, and abused. Their stories are clear proof that these syndicates operate with no regard for human dignity. This must stop,” said Immigration Commissioner Joel Anthony Viado.

Pinta de Baryo’s anthropomorphic roosters —PHOTOS COURTESY OF CARLA GAMALINDA

Michael Orlina embraces his shifting reality

“Potluck: Ikalawang Timpla,” an exhibit of eight young visual artists from different parts of the Philippines at the NCCA (National Commission for Culture and the Arts) Gallery in Intramuros, Manila, explores the confluence, intersections, and issues of food in Philippine society.

Food, as the exhibition notes, “exposes the tensions between abundance and scarcity, as well as nourishment and deprivation.”

The foodscape in the Philippines, as it further notes, “extends beyond what is served at the table, and is shaped by economic systems, histories of colonization, and shifting social structures.”

“Potluck” artists

The featured artists analyzed and converted these tensions and issues into works ranging from mixed media, prints, and installation art to video art and sculpture, providing their careful interpretation of the subject matter.

Featured in the second edition of “Potluck” are Jed Aralca of Tagum, Davao del Norte; Pinta de Baryo, also of Tagum; Karlo Antonio Galay David of Kidapawan, Cotabato; Carla Gamalinda of Manila; Nicolei Buendia Gupit of Cavite and the United States; Lanzvoltaire Balagtas of Paombong, Bulacan; Marco Tabamo of Tarlac City; and Raffy Ugaddan of Marikina.

The first edition of the exhibition was held last May at The Boston Art Gallery in Quezon City.

Tabamo’s “Ka Puwang”

Societal issues

In the current show, Pinta de Baryo uses the image of anthropomorphic roosters to impart the practice of gambling and speculative practice just to have something to feed a deprived stomach.

Karlo David presents the country’s dependence on rice and the problems emanating from it using a scene normal to police raids and arrests—that is, banned substances.

Balagtas shows food security issues and the importance of carinderias, especially among the working class, in his video art and photo collage works.

Balagtas’ collage

Uggadan’s animation piece reflects his past experiences of hunger and brings forward the idea that “hunger is not just a physical condition, but an emotional and existential state.”

In his installation made from papier-mâché pieces, Gupit provides his own experience on food and diaspora, while Tabamo pays homage to the unseen characters in Kapampangan gatherings, such as the dishwashers.

Gamalinda’s supersized fly

For her part, Gamalinda veers away from her usual works on canvas and creates a sculpture of supersized flies made from mantel (table covers) as a metaphor for frustration brought about by the peskiness of the former and the smell of the latter. Here, she projects the temporariness of things associated with handaan (party), when objects are used just for a short period of time.

Alarca’s painted piece deals with the “fatigue of survival,” which means having the same kind of food, a sustenance that is routine, just to survive in an environment that can be described as disadvantaged.

The exhibit runs until April 30 at the NCCA Gallery in Intramuros, Manila.
