“What is this?” Lan asked. “A sandwich. How’s the coffee?” Lan sipped the coffee. She paused. Of course she knew what coffee was. But she had never tasted Vietnamese drip coffee with condensed milk.

And why did sipping a sweet Vietnamese coffee —why did that make her heart skip? A sandwich that is more than a sandwich. Coffee that is more than coffee.” — Ryka Aoki
What is this?” Lan asked.
“A sandwich. How’s the coffee?”
Lan sipped the coffee. She paused. Of course she knew what coffee was.
But she had never tasted Vietnamese drip coffee with condensed milk.
Lan looked about her at the happy customers. They seemed so different
from the ones who were now coming to Starrgate. Why was this different
from the donuts at the shop? And why did sipping a sweet Vietnamese coffee
—why did that make her heart skip?
A sandwich that is more than a sandwich. Coffee that is more than coffee.
