Whilst meandering through the internet recently I stumbled upon an article about one of my favourite topics. Coffee.
Now I have to say, one of the big draw points of choosing Italy as a destination of this trip was the coffee. Actually, the points were as follows
(and in order of importance):
- The coffee
- The gelato
- The other food items (mmmmm pizza)
- The red wine
- Maybe some of the sights :D
So I found it quite amusing that apparently Aussies are the coffee connoisseurs of the world. I'm not sure how much of that is true but I know I can't do without my daily cappucino (although I'm happy about what my choice of coffee says about me in this article), and I'd rather go without that have a bad one. I'm hoping that Italy's reputation for good coffee will eventuate, as I am strategically going there after the UK as I know what dross they serve up in Blighty!
Ahh well, if it does turn out to be rubbish, at least the first three of the best top ten coffee houses in Sydney are all within 5 minutes from me!

Italian coffee is divine. Not to fret... yum.
Italian coffee is the best....you really can't go wrong. I am sure you have must remember the coffee's we drank in Rome. And you won't stop reminding me of the red wine...! ;-)
And of course the typical British thing we did of buying a bottle of Fracati and sitting on the steps near the Trevi fountin getting pissed! Local italians coming up to us and saying 'you from England?!' because only the brits would do something as classy as that!
