For those who know me, it’s obvious I can’t travel without experience a cup of coffee here and there!
Visiting new places is the best adventure for me, but I couldn’t resist trying new dishes, drinks, fruits, etc., especially if they are not available in my country, Poland. I’m pretty sure most of you agree with me, that’s the best way to explore a new place - meet people, visit their hidden gems and eat or drink the way they do!
In this post, I would like to share with you my way of getting to know new cities. I just love coffee…My favorite is cappuccino Almost everywhere I go I order it. Depends on the country, cafe, barista and the atmosphere I can say that the taste varies a lot! I like to experiment with coffees- trying new ingredients like syrups, whipped cream, cinnamon, different kinds of milk, brown sugar, etc.
My way of visiting cities is to grab a coffee “to go” and walk down the streets, especially in the morning it’s the best time to do it and at the same time to wake me up I have got a lot of memories with coffee taste and scenes from an exact city. Each sip gives me a lot of pleasure, at the same time my eyes are admiring the beauty of a new territory. After a few hours of sightseeing, I prefer to sit in a cozy cafe, order my second cup of coffee, this time with a delicious dessert and enjoy “people watching” behind the glass window.
My “number 1” is a cappuccino with few drops of cinnamon syrup and I enjoy “latte art”* if barista can prepare my drink in a special way!
What is your favorite type of coffee? Do you admire latte art* as I do? I would love to read about it in comments Feel free to share photos of tasty coffee with us! I’m sure my friend @Giuseppe75 has got some great photos of delicious cappuccino with awesome latte art patterns
*Latte art- it’s about creating a pattern or text on the surface of the coffee drink, using espresso and milk foam.
