In early April with my Mom and two of my children, visiting my brother and his family, I drank my share of Espressos/Lattes and Cappucinos. I am now in search of a coffee that will compare to my Italian experience. This past weekend I was in Stratford, On., and happened upon a coffee bar called 'Sputnick' and it was pretty darn close.

I find the caffeine effects me less then regular brewed coffee but I don't really have a problem on that front so it doesn't keep me up, I can't vouched for anyone else. They don't sit and linger over coffee, they sit and linger over food! In the morning they may have a cappuccino or a latte, although a latte is really considered a child's drink and both are only drank in the morning. Espresso with a shot of liqueur is called a "corretto" and yes would be served after dinner. I'm sorry you're drinking crappy cold coffee, my condolences. Jacquelyn,

I have a question for you—how many of those little cups of espresso would you drink in a day? Does it keep you up at night? In Italy, what coffee drink do they sit down and linger over? Do they linger? Do they mix espresso with liqueur for after-dinner drinks? I was in Italy before I was old enough to appreciate coffee, and was drinking bubbly water, which I thought was oh-so-European. Did I say I was jealous as I sip a stone-cold coffee that I made this a.m. at 6:15? Hope you're having an amazing time! Hi!
