I have tried Peet's coffee but there aren't many around here. Haven't tried their espresso yet though. Hi Rose, thanks for reading! I have tried Peet’s coffee but there aren’t many around here.

Have you tried an espresso from Peet's Coffee? I believe they have stores in New England. It's about the only American coffee I can drink. I just found your blog and am enjoying it!

The Baristas usually are professionally trained, and the better ones put wonderful designs in the cappuccinos.<br/>Thanks for stpping by my blog. Unfortunately I don't have a lot to offer on the music front as I tend to listen to satelight radio as we get suc poor recption here in the mountains...Sara from "Ms Adventures in Italy" usually is pretty up to date on the Italian music scene..

Seriously, you can get some pretty bad 'caffe' in England too but the worst is definately French partly because you have the expectation that it should be good and it's always soo bad. Having great 'caffe' on tap literally everywhere is one best things about living here. Isn’t America the land where all beverages must be consumed from a bucket?

If you order 'picolo' (sic.) , you'll get an espresso cup full to the brim! If you just order a coffee, they'll put a spoonful of ground coffee in a glass and top it up with almost boiling water. Not a country for coffee lovers. I recommend sticking to beer if you visit :-) If you order Espresso in the Czech Republic, you’ll be served a mugfull!

I do the exact same thing, trying to show how short I want it but it never works!! They always say of course and then bring an espresso cup full to the top!! I think when I say short they take it as being served in an espresso cup!! You think it's bad there, visit Ireland, it is so bad here we actually don't drink it outside of our shop or home:( I've spoke about this loads on my blog too, another thing that drives me mad is "sugarlumps" served with espresso - Ahhhhhhh!!!! Love the blog, I'll add you as a link!! Ciao!! Hahahaha!! I do the exact same thing, trying to show how short I want it but it never works!!
