咖啡西施

MBA期末考的秘密
像嗎啡一樣容易上癮
無須奶球
爸爸的,夏威夷快沖假期
媽媽的,斜眼憶當年
小孩 自高山仰止

beans in bikini

The secret society has it
The spread-out of it
Espresso with no milk
Yet the traffic is creamy

John’s instant break to Hawaii
Wendy’s reluctant peek
And the kid in the car seat
Wow the magnificent cow in the city

Aha, I didn't get it before clicking the link provided. Now I see what it is about. Clever and whimsical. What do you think of the business practice?

Thanks Lake if you are able to laugh about it.
This biz model is exactly the same as something
called "槟榔西施" that I saw in Taiwan:
a small booth with products (for take and leave)
and young pretty girls selling them with sex appeal.

Will it become the next big thing in US? I don't think
so.
