\"The Brainwash Cafe and Laundromat, beloved for its salads, eclectic burgers and cheap suds, is stuck in a bit of a spin cycle thanks to a huge construction project on Folsom Street between Seventh and Eighth streets.\
\
At the end of 2017, the business could be the most profitable it's ever been --- if it survives.\
\
