  1. Not sure if this has already been covered in rbr, but apparently
    heather and Stu Fleming's previously posted RBR business
    model for Hooters style coffee joints is very successful in Seattle:
    <http://www.latimes.com/business/la-na-
    sexpresso4feb04,0,4172523.story>

    At the Sweet Spot here in Shoreline, the Natte Latte in Port Orchard
    and the Bikini Espresso in Renton, not to mention the multi-stand
    Cowgirls Espresso, the term "hot coffee" has clearly taken on a
    whole new meaning.
    Some of the "sexpresso" stands, as they are called, have proved
    so popular that neighbors, including adjacent businesses, have
    started
    to complain. Not that it's done much good.
    "Really, there is no ordinance against scantily clad baristas," said
    John Urquhart, a spokesman for the Sheriff's Department in King
    County,
    which includes Seattle and most suburbs. ...

    I sort of agree with the high school sophomore guy who works at
    Tully's
    and thinks it's degrading to women, but I am a PC [censored] (I also just
    like
    any news story where the moral center is provided by a 10th grader).

    Relevance to cycling? Dunno, need to have one of the Seattle
    crowd tell us which teams go to these espresso stands for their
    post-ride coffee and trash talk.

    i saw that story (and was a little [censored], but same-old-same-old
    story of my life; full of good ideas that come to nothing for me because
    i just "can't care" to do more than daydream about them..)

    i have yet to, ahem, patronize any sexpresso place, or i would provide
    an rbr report. sorry.
