Americano, a coffee shop that only opens in hospitals

Coffee is life, and life is like coffee. A cup of original black coffee, though bitter and astringent, is still very memorable. This is just like the realization and growth that life brings us.

Speaking of coffee, there has long been a lot of controversy in its history, such as the method of making it, the source of coffee beans, etc. The origin of the coffee house is in the 16th century, when it was a place for free exchange of ideas and political dialogue in the Ottoman Empire. It has a long history. It is said that many people at that time regarded coffee as a provocative drink.

However, time has changed, and now coffee has become a part of our lives. Coffee contains stories, moods, the future and the past. Tasting a cup of coffee is more like a journey, a pursuit of a better life...

I often hear that people who open coffee shops must be passionate people. To me, this has two meanings:

First, it means that the boss has a noble and far-reaching vision and is not materialistic.

This means that customers believe that the coffee shop will not have any commercial traps and will sell real coffee.

From decoration to service, it all reflects culture and civilization, the more perfect the better.

Second, it shows how difficult it is for coffee shops to survive.

I often hear friends say that their dream is to work hard to earn money to achieve financial freedom, and then open a coffee shop with a sense of purpose.

What this means is that the prerequisite for opening a coffee shop is to have money, so that you can indulge your own passions.

Americano is such a sentimental coffee shop, which is why it avoids noisy shopping malls and brightly lit streets, and chooses to be located in the corner of the hospital that protects lives, providing a quiet and comfortable environment for those anxious people and bringing them a moment of comfort.

In April 2018, the first American coffee shop officially entered the hospital - the East Campus of the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University. In more than a year, there are five coffee shops in Zhengzhou, all of which are opened only in hospitals. It is committed to providing customers with the best quality coffee and service, creating a unique "hospital quiet space" so that every customer who enters the store can relax.

The American coffee shop is located in a tertiary hospital. Its food safety standards meet or exceed national standards, so customers can enjoy it with confidence. American coffee uses Brazilian Cerato coffee beans, Ethiopian coffee beans, and Nicaraguan coffee beans. The freshly ground coffee has a strong floral and fruity aroma, and the taste is mellow and rich, which makes people energetic. American coffee drinks are diverse. In addition to the classic coffee series, there are also iced series, fruit coffee series, tea series, and dessert series. The variety of products meets the different requirements of each customer. In addition, American coffee adheres to the service concept of customer first and serving every customer with heart, impressing customers with friendly and meticulous service, and continuously providing products and services that exceed customer expectations.

The decoration of American coffee shops is generally American style, mainly to create a home feeling for customers. The lighting colors and display cabinets of the shop give people a warm and comfortable feeling. Each lamp in the American coffee shop has its own unique function, and the distance between the lamps is also measured to ensure that no matter where you sit, there will be no light shining directly on your face. The light colors are mostly softer, and you can feel warm and comfortable just through the light.

The owner of Americano Coffee believes that in order to make customers feel at home when they enter the store, the staff must be "passionate about customer service and corporate culture". Only such passionate staff can infect customers and make them feel at home. Therefore, every employee who enters Americano Coffee will receive formal training to cultivate and deepen their sincere feelings for the product and Americano Coffee from aspects such as the long history of coffee development, the unique nuances of coffee flavor, and immersive experience.

Of course, it is impossible to provide customers with a perfect product experience just by being enthusiastic. New baristas need to learn a lot, including the overview of coffee growing areas and trade practices for coffee procurement, how to process coffee berries to obtain coffee beans, the coffee roasting process, the necessary skills to produce high-quality espresso, the basic principles of brewing coffee beans, the steps of tasting coffee, and the basic taste and characteristics of various coffees. American coffee not only sells coffee, but also provides many beverages and snacks, and relevant knowledge must be mastered one by one.

Making coffee is an art, and baristas need to pay special attention to the quality of coffee. If a barista just performs the action mechanically or perfunctorily, he can only make poor-quality coffee that is bland or bitter. However, baristas who have been influenced by the American coffee corporate culture and professional skills training will always be full of enthusiasm and strictly follow the standards to make the coffee that each customer needs.

Americano coffee quietly exists in a corner of the hospital, insisting on being a coffee shop with warmth, feelings and mission. The five stores accompany every customer who comes, and most of the customers become family friends who grow together and nourish each other, providing warm companionship and nourishment for life.

In recent years, economic development has been slowing down, and people have also gradually slowed down their pace, and even stopped to think and re-examine their life dreams. American coffee, based on its mission of serving society, serves customers and society, and pursues higher life dreams, rather than just the persistent pursuit of material enjoyment.
