Sounds like a perfect situation on a first date ;-)

I must say that I have never understood the point of decaffeinated coffee,
for me it is like alcohol-free beer (which for some unknown reason is
relatively popular here in Switzerland, perhaps because the taste difference
from regular Swiss beer is not so great...)

I like it when I travel in places like Italy or Spain or parts of France
where you do not have to ask for espresso, "coffee" is automatically made
using the espresso method. I need 2-3 strong cups in the morning before I
can even take a shower, but after that I do not touch the stuff later in the
day.

I visit a Starbucks when I am in New York, since coffee even at the
$300/night business hotels is totally undrinkable. I have no idea what a
latte is but their espresso is decent.

Nathan
