After the flushing procedure came first espresso, not terrible, normal we must spend 2 or 3 before finding this incomparable quality that few professionals reach. I opted for a solidary coffee from Ethiopia, not the ordinary Lavazza that we are served often after a meal at the restaurant. Having worked in the hospitality business, you should know that there is a superior good that only the Lavazza café owners, restaurateurs serve. After the first night of the test, the taste stayed in my mouth two hours to savor the fully take without sugar.
Morning came, I was anxious. I took a usual cup of coffee I washed down hot milk foam, happiness, just missing the warm croissants. A sacrilege that I will rectify Sunday morning. This afternoon espresso with a little sugar, excellent, sugar does not alter the taste of coffee which retains its peculiar bitterness in this part of Africa. Then in the afternoon, it was the test of the cappuccino. A complete success, a soft drink, creamy with great finesse.
