It's crazy, food is top notch, or what you pay for it, but coffee is always the french 3/4. So not very good.

To be fair, they invented it and the Italians refined the espresso in 1961 so.

Part of why it's relatively bad is because they still make it the same way as they did back then

Sure, but the "third wave" coffee is even worse IMO.

Is that foamy lattes w syrup?

[-] Valmond@lemmy.world 2 points 3 days ago

Nah, the "hipster espresso" I'd call it. Usually tastes sour, "but that's normal, not everyone can appreciate all the 'flavours' "

Ah, I am guilty of liking that. But I do think it is a very different taste than regular dark roasted chocolaty coffee and they should suprise you with a funky light-roasted one as their standard bean. Those are more suited for specialty places where they have multiple grinders with multiple beans.

Sure no problemo ! But why can't they have an espresso that at least is somewhat like a real Italian one ...

[-] huppakee@lemm.ee 2 points 2 days ago

Especially if is a specialry place, a classic Italian espresso should be on the menu for sure 100%

You'd need an italian trained barista though :-)
