Vesuvio Cafe (HSS)

This iconic San Francisco bar was founded in 1948. Over the years it was a favorite haunt for the Beat Generation artists like Jack Kerouac, Allen Ginsberg, Lawrence Ferlinghetti, and Neal Cassady--as well as yours-truly during my university years. I remember many a late Saturday night, sitting upstairs with my friends, drinking Irish coffees, and solving the world's problems.

 

If ever there was a schizophrenic drink, the Irish coffee is it. After a couple rounds my body doesn't know whether to sleep or to run a marathon. And, we never managed to solve even one of the world's problems.

 

Happy Slider's Sunday Everyone.
