Coffee foam art

Coffee foam art is a really good example of how much importance Japanese people give to details in the presentation of food and other services. Sometimes more time is spent taking care of the presentation than the preparation. Some of these coffees look so beautiful that it’s a pity to drink them:

New solar-powered Coca-Cola vending machines with LED lights

There are nearly 6 million drinks vending machines in Japan; more or less one vending machine per every 20 people. Coca-Cola, which currently owns almost 1 million vending machines in Japan, has recently announced that they are going to replace all of them with a new ecological model that will be powered by solar panels and will be lit by low consumption LED lights. They will also be equipped with a payment system that uses electronic money and is compatible with almost all the smartcards used in Japan.
