Coffee cups in hotels

This is where our community discusses almost anything! While we're mainly a Cambodia expat discussion forum and talk about expat life here, we debate about almost everything. Even if you're a tourist passing through Southeast Asia and want to connect with expatriates living and working in Cambodia, this is the first section of our site that you should check out. Our members start their own discussions or post links to other blogs and/or news articles they find interesting and want to chat about. So join in the fun and start new topics, or feel free to comment on anything our community members have already started! We also have some Khmer members here as well, but English is the main language used on CEO. You're welcome to have a look around, and if you decide you want to participate, you can become a part our international expat community by signing up for a free account.

Coffee cups in hotels

Post by rozzieoz »

Will someone please tell hotels about coffee mugs for the breakfast buffet.

They provide teeny tiny little cups and you need at least four before you even start to feel human.

I’m only on my first, can you tell, ?

But seriously, tiny coffee cups, wtf!?!

My pet peeve in Asia.

Dont give me a demitasse cup that some postruing simp will drink with his pinky pointing to Aldebaran. I want a mug. You gonna make me drink 3-1? Gimme two packets and a mug.

Mug. LIke 12-16oz. With a handle you can put 4 fingers in. US WW2 surplus canteen cups are fine.

Sorry ,, I'm not in touch with the upmarket coffee culture but I thought most expats got their morning coffee kick out of a bottle.
Cambodia,,,, Don't fall in love with her.
Like the spoilt child she is, she will not be happy till she destroys herself from within and breaks your heart.

Some of us may enjoy a breakfast buffet every so often.

Dude, its not coffee culture. Its coffee drinking.

Its that steaming giant 20oz cup that you fill from an urn boiling out in a gas station outside Winnepeg Manitoba at 4am in the middle of winter. And ya drink it black becasue the coffee oil floating on the top looks like diesel.

Its that giant Thermos full of whatever coffee you have that you can just suck on all day.

Coffee culture is some hipsters murmuring about how good their micro sipsipsiippy cup full of weasal coffee is. O yum, how profound.

Coffee drinking is brewing up a whole Thermos full of weasal coffee. Becasue coffee drinking demands volume!!!!!!! I travel with a coffee sock, a tablespoon, and a mug! Laugh at me forbringing that to the buffet as you just sippysip away.

I’ve never had a coffee mug in a hotel room. Always stupid little cups and saucers.
