FarsiLounge ep.1: Global Weather and Global Warming

The people you meet might respond to uncertainty differently than you. Consider seeing things from their point of view and adapting a little. Listen to this story of Nicole and Susan. 

Nicole likes routines and likes to plan in advance. Every Sunday she spends the afternoon and evening at her parents’ house. Every Monday she meets her best friend for lunch and every Monday, Wednesday and Friday mornings she goes to a café and reads. Having some control over what’s going to happen makes her feel safe. Then one day Nicole meets Susan. Susan never plans things in advance, is always late, and prefers to be flexible. She likes to make decisions based on how she’s feeling that day and feels that doing the same thing is limiting. Nicole tried to make plans to meet for coffee in advance, Susan sounds uninterested, but she never gives her definite answers. Her behavior really annoys Nicole. 

With people who don’t mind uncertainty …

Remember that you can learn a lot from the unknown and the unfamiliar.
Show flexibility.
For example:
For me, either way is fine.
Let me know what you’re comfortable with.


With people who avoid uncertainty …

Offer details when making decisions.
Provide a context with background information. 
For example:
The reason I do it this way is…
Let me explain why (I’m doing this).

Show you understand the importance of structure and plans. 
I understand the (structure/flexibility) is important / means a lot to you.
I can see why you (spend time on planning).

De todos los restaurantes que se ubican en el Centro Histórico de la ciudad, sin duda, destacan aquellos que se descubren dentro de hermosas casonas que datan de hace siglos. Uno de los más conocidos, concurridos y afamados es el mítico Café de Tacuba.

Este restaurante tiene ya más de 100 años, y es que además de su delicioso y mexicano menú, son sus muros los que embelesan a cualquier comensal que ingresa al lugar. Las mesas, la música y las pinturas transportan a todo visitante al México del siglo XX. Es preciso decir que el Café de Tacuba ha permeado la idiosincrasia capitalina desde hace años, por su gran tradición y preciosa decoración.

Pero hay algunos datos de su historia que muchos citadinos desconocen. Vale la pena echar un vistazo a su pasado para verdaderamente comprender los momentos que le otorgaron tanta identidad.

El inmueble que alberga hoy el Café de Tacuba fue construido desde el siglo XVII. Cabe mencionar, que a principios del siglo XX, esta casona fungía como sede de una lechería. Para 1912, Dionisio Mollinero llegó desde Tabasco a la Ciudad de México para fundar un restaurante de auténticas y tradicionales delicias mexicanas. Eligió esta increíble residencia de la calle de Tacuba para hacerlo.

El arte que adorna todos los alrededores del Café de Tacuba es admirable. Lo que más resalta son sus vitrales y mosaicos. Pero también conviene voltear a ver las obras pictóricas, pues muchas son de la época novohispana. Uno de los cuadros más famosos se llama La niña en traje rojo, y es de José de la Borda. También llaman la atención unos óleos de Carlos González, que narran con bellas imágenes el descubrimiento del mole y el chocolate.
