Default Espresso in Prague!

This is the cafe where we had espresso yesterday. The coffee here in Prague has been really good.

Yup, that's me. I'm having a double espresso with just a little sugar in it. The shot was already sweet without the sugar, so it really didn't need the sugar. I bought myself an espresso cup in Prague. I'll have to post a pic of it soon.

Cool. Did they say where they got the beans from?

Not everyone there speaks great English, so I wasn't able to get much info about the coffee. I did get turned down when I asked to make my own shot.

So they understood "I'll handle that!" but not "Where did these beans come from?".

Odd. All the same it sounds like you are having a blast.

I'm back at the office now. I got back on Sunday night. The request for the shot was made through some gestures and motions. He then shook his head no. Everyone speaks some English, but some have much thicker accents than others. They have great beer in the Czech Republic too. That's actually where Budweiser originated. Their version is much better than our version.

I've read that elsewhere.

How was the coffee in general?
