Roberto's magic
My favorite meal of the day (perhaps because it's the first one) is breakfast. Roberto sees me walk into his cafe and even before I reach the busy marble counter, he's already artfully getting my double cappuccino together. As I pour in a spoonful of sugar and quietly begin stirring, he presents me with a perfectly glazed cornetto. Or a warm pain au chocolat, if that's what he's been making on that day. Not a word spoken, only smiles.
Can't you just smell the joy?
Buona giornata!
Yes, I can! And Yum!!! Looks delicious ... I am a pain au chocolat girl myself!
ReplyDeleteΚαλή όρεξη :-)
ReplyDeleteI do.... All the way north to Norway!
ReplyDeleteHave a nice day!
You have had a good start to the day, with "Roberto`s magic" and smiles;-)
That looks like very delicious. If I could take it... I haven't had breakfast yet.
ReplyDeleteOh, what a joy! The cappucino and the warm pain o chocolate look yummy; it leaves me mouth-watering.
ReplyDeleteIndeed, the finest way to start a day.

ReplyDeletei had no idea i could order a double cappuci !!!!!
ReplyDeletelovely picture... and you know what I'M doing tomorrow ;)
On occasion, a meal on a table in front of me says "take a picture". I understand your feeling with this one. I have one of a sushi serving once and I love it. Food! Si!
ReplyDeleteOh yes, I can! And I love it when you go to one place often and they know what you want the moment you step in. I still have to find one café like that here...
ReplyDeleteLooks absolutely delicious...
ReplyDeleteThis is why we need to go to Italy. This is why it is the cradle of Western civilization. How much more lyrical than Starbucks.
ReplyDeleteGreat breakfast. I'll come along and have a cup of black coffee and a chocolate croissant too.
ReplyDeleteI CAN smell the coffee! And my mouth also waters for a brioche. Is it possible to get a bad coffee and pastry in Italy? My experience says no.
ReplyDeleteQuale immagine dolce :D
ReplyDeleteAmo caffè!
I can smell that pastry too :) I love Roma with all heart. It's really me type of city. WOuld love to move there.
ReplyDeletemi e' venuta la fame....adoro la colazione italiana. :)
ReplyDeleteforse dovrei pensare anche io alla colazione questa mattina... bella la foto delle margherite!
ReplyDeleteciao, Luis

ReplyDeleteDouble cappucino? My, but you ARE decadent! ;-)
ReplyDeleteOh, to be young enough to be able to eat the pain au chocolat or glazed cornetto frequently. My mouth is watering!!!
ReplyDeleteThe sight of that double cappuccino made «Louis'» Caffeine Meter quiver and jump over into the red zone...
ReplyDeleteMeraviglia!
ReplyDeleteyum yum yum... that's my kind of breakfast and one that i haven't had in a very long time.
