Deep from the battlefields of the ongoing battle between life and art comes another sighting on Yelp. Although similar to the first one a few weeks ago, this one makes specific note of my apparent Viking-ness, which has now come up twice in the Yelp reviews of Four Barrel.
“But the REAL reason I go is to get waited on by the most beautiful barista/viking that I have ever seen. Is there anything better than a 6 foot 2 red-bearded man, silhouetted against wall-mounted boar heads and serving me amazing coffee? I don’t think so.”

That is why I go.
