Espresso != A regular black coffee. Espresso is way more concentrated, and is brewed using pressure. Regular black coffee implies the drip method.

I'll take an African American coffee.

Look, there's half a billion of us and I'm not gonna reject the possibility that wherever you're from people say "café negro" for some reason, but yeah, no, it's "café solo" as far as I'm concerned. You might as well call café con leche "café beige".

I've never come across a place that uses a perc and doesnt burn their coffee, so honestly I find Starbucks better on that alone
