Strolling the streets of Salamanca, Spain, I happened upon this cafe blazing with Coca-Cola signage. Take a look.
The Cafe Jardin not only went for the overhead banner, but also the frosted glass below. Let there be no mistake, this place serves Coca-Cola proudly. As if that were not enough, there was a delivery van parked out front as you can see in the next photo.
I was tempted to get behind the wheel and roll out of there toting dozen of cases of the beloved elixir. That would have been bad form while visiting another country. Still, the temptation was there. As it was, I settled for an ice-cold bottle and was on my way to see more fascinating sights in this old university town. There will be a few posts about Salamanca in the near future.
You can see that shapely bottle is sweating in the breeze there at Charlie’s Bar. Only an ice-cold container will do that and there’s no other way to consume this beverage. Let’s take a closer look at the banner.
They do a great job bottling Coke on the island. The flavor is perfect, as is the carbonation. The bubbles are a necessity, and plenty of them are required. I won’t have it any other way and have been known to fire off nasty letters to any bottler I suspect of not producing the product as intended. Yes, I am the judge of such efforts and rule accordingly.
