Surprisingly, I’ve never really got into the coffee culture! It’s always been tea for me. :)

I agree. I used to go to Paris once a year, and after that Italy has been a yearly trip. So, for me, except for breakfast, espresso or espresso macchiato is the way to go. I still love my American coffee for breakfast though :)

et quand on a goûté à l’expresso italien, je me demande même comment on fait avec les expresso parisiens… Le meilleur (ah le macchiato servi par les serveuses, toutes italiennes!!), il est chez ILLY, à côté de l’Opéra

Chère Garance, on peut être complètment américanisé ou nord-américanisé (dans mon cas) et cela ne veut pas dire pour autant que l’on doive boire du café filtre. Ce n’est pas une obligation. C’est comme ici, à Montréal, plein de pauvres touristes français ou italiens arrivent ici en renoncant au café en pensant qu’il n’y a que de la merde ou des starbucks alors qu’il y a maintenant plein de petits cafés sympas où l’on sert de l’expresso et même souvent à l’italienne ce qui fait qu’il est vraiment bon.

Mais si ça te plait, c’est ce qui compte. Moi je ne jure que par le café sorti tout droit d’une machine expresso. J’ai mes adresses à Mtl; Flocons expresso, Il Gamba, Picolo café bar, Olive & Gourmando, Café Olympico et il y en a plein d’autres!

Bon matin!

Ahh… the american coffee. Straight black without added sugar, and it still wouldn’t make me last for an hour longer. That stuff has no effect anymore, and you know it’s too late to stop when that happens, soooooo… let’s not stop

Like this pic!!! <3

Garance, have you been checking out the new cafes that have populated NYC, London and Paris over the past few years with really good coffee? Next time you are in London try Flat White, Kaffeine and Milk Bar and in Paris you probably know about the cool espresso bars like Le Bal and Coutume that have popped up (mostly created by Australians). In NYC, try coffees made by Stumptown, Intelligentsia and Blue Bottle (on the High Line). Yum!

I´m an architect..I always need a double espresso without anything.. :) lovely sunday evening.. christine.

100 years ago, PG Wodehouse the Jeeves author said you can tell an American by – precisley as you said – the gallons of coffee! le plus ca..

I like the cup, but I think I still prefer smaller european coffees. A nice espresso or a cappucino :)

For me, American coffee is my morning ritual. The rest of the day I need espresso or espresso macchiato.

I used to be a big ol’ american coffee connoisseur, until I worked in a coffee shop for all 4 years of my undergraduate! The coffee smell gets into your hands (even after washing them, or showering!), your hair, your clothes, your shoes. Bleh. Plus, whenever I have a bag of coffee in my own home I associate it with the smell of trash (old coffee grounds), and wonder where that terrible smell is coming from. Now I drink only tea! Maybe someday I will be desensitized enough to drink it again…

As an america living in Spain I get so weary of people talking smack about our coffee. Some drip coffee/filter coffee/french press is really delicious! Just because it’s not espresso based doesn’t mean it’s not amazing. I make my own french press coffee at home every morning because I just love it that way! Welcome to the american way Garance!

Sympa cette tasse :)

Welcome to America!! haha! Perso j’adore les cafés spécial des fête de Starbucks, un peu cliché je l’avoue, mais celui au pain d’épice est huummmm Délicieux!! :)

Coffee heals everything

nice and black! ps and by american coffee do you mean an americano? (espresso + water) (my favorite) because to most people – coffee in america is with tons of cream and sugar… (yuck)

Hello,

Je l’ai toujours dit, la nature humaine s’adapte à tout …… mais là quand même c’est raide.

Je ne vais pas renoncer tout de suite à mon petit nespresso ….. “What else”

Garance, have you thought about it? Are you at heart an American?

BLEH American coffee is absolutely the most disgusting thing you could possibly consume!

Give me a good syrupy European coffee any day!

Ciao xoxo

Sorry American coffee is horrible. Agree with Jane – New Zealand coffee is really good. Our flat whites are all I drink. European coffee though surpasses American and British coffee in every way. Melbourne, Australia also has great coffee :)

Ahhh — what a lovely place to sit…as an ex-New Yorker I miss all the great spots there…next time you are in LA try Abbot-Kinney in Venice — you won’t be disappointed by the style or the coffee.

Moi, installée à L.A depuis qque temps, je n’arrive pas à m’y mettre…dommage, j’adore l’idée de boire dans ces grands mugs, ou mieux de boire un grand latte d’Intelligentsia ou même de Starbucks en marchant jusqu’à la voiture, en conduisant dans la voiture, en sortant de la voiture pour arriver à la manucure… Très jolie photo, j’adore cet endroit…et tes posts sur L.A!

I am american, and I think most coffee is made too watery, so I often add a shot of espresso. That makes it taste bolder. I like it black.

Garance,
Rien à voir mais à quand ton city guide perso pour New York ?
J’adorerais avoir les adresses d’une frenchie à NYC… Pleeeeeeeeaaaase !

I’m trying to get used to British coffee… I only like either very good one or mediocre coffee + lots of sugar!

De Paris a News York le meilleur café reste ceux du Starbuck

Accro au café, je ne peux pas commencer une journée ( surtout de travail ) sans!
J’adore le café americain. Cet été lors de mes vacances à New-york, j’étais tellement heureuse quand au petit dej’ on m’apportait une mug géante.
Je n’en laissé même pas une goutte ;-)

Alors, si j’habitais là-bas, je pense que tout comme toi, je prendrais vite l’habitude !

One word, Sacrilège!

But I would drink anything at Joan’s on third…
If I had a food-emporium, it would be like Joan’s. It is perfect.
:D

Avoir pré-payé ses cours est la meilleure méthode que je connaisse pour ne pas en rater un seul !
Ca le coûte tellement, au sens propre, que je suis obligée d’y aller !

I’m Italian, so sorry, but for me “coffee” is a completely different thing… ;)

Garange, I have to handed to you. I have been living here for 7 years now and the only thing I didn’t get use to is the coffee. You need to spend more time in France, and buy an expresso machine for your house :)

A friend of mine mentioned that she had some French visitors at her office. To be the excellent hostess that she is, she offered to prepare a to go coffee mug for them. She said that when she said this they looked at her with utter confusion. Apparently, the idea of drinking coffee on the go was very strange to them. Maybe this doesn’t seem strange to you now, but when you first came to the U.S. what did you think about this idea of taking your coffee with you, instead of sitting down to drink it slowly and appreciating the flavor of it? Is this really an American thing?

Great image. I’m a tea drinker myself, find coffee gives me an horrendous headache – although I do like the occasional hazelnut latte {yeah I’m a whimp, I know!}

Je crois que j’aurai du mal à me passer de mon café Nespresso!

Pardon, je m’étais référé à la date, en haut a gauche, sur mon com précédent. Il y est marqué New-York :-p
Los Angeles, je connais moins. Mais je pense qu’on peut trouver de bonnes adresses, sans vouloir dénigrer celui de Joan’s on Third, car je parle d’espresso et qu’un café filtre bien fait est bon si on est amateur.
Il n’y a pas de mauvaise méthode, il n’y a que du mauvais café…

The worst cappuccino in Venice is better than the best outside :D
