Coffeeee!!!

Hello, how are you?

Let's talk coffee today :-) As a child, I could never understand what adults saw in coffee. "A few" ;-) years later, I don't  understand how someone can live without it... I'm totally hooked! But I'm also very particular about my coffee and won't drink it just anywhere. I make coffee at home every day (I don't necessarily want to spend €2.50 plus daily on my favorite beverage) and from time to time have it out in town. This is what my mornings look like:

:-)

So far, I can say that the best, and I mean the best, coffee you can get is in Terrazzo Italia in Powers Court Shopping Centre. Their espresso is divine - smooth, strong and not a hint of bitterness. They also have amazing authentic Italian food but since this post is about coffee, I'll cover that some other time :-)

Another place I can recommend is La Corte in the Epicurean Food Hall. The whole place is actually one of my favorite spots in Dublin, always buzzing with activity and offering food from all over the world. La Corte's coffee is delish, especially their cappuccino.

If you're looking for a refreshing, iced form of coffee, then Starbuck's is the place. The have recently released a Coconut Mocha Frappucino which is simply amazing! Actually, it's probably a bit too tasty, I'm not sure how many of those I've already had... The only thing stopping me from buying it nearly every day is the price - €4.50! :-O

(couldn't resist posting this... ;-))

Two of the three places I mention are Italian - and it's not a coincidence since Italians really know how to make amazing coffee! I do, however, also love Turkish coffee, especially served with sugar and orange water. And don't even get me started on the coffee I had in Sarajevo, Bosnia and Hercegovina!!! It's served with sugar cubes, which you can dip in the coffee, suck on and eat :-) I will do a separate post on how to make this coffee at home. For the moment, that's all.

Bosnian coffee, I miss you....
