The Sartorialist scopre uno Starbucks a Firenze!

Scott Schuman, il fashion blogger più famoso di New York papà di The Sartorialist, ci racconta oggi del suo ultimo viaggio in Italia con Garance Dorè e della sua grande sorpresa nel trovare il suo primo “to go espresso” a Firenze!

I was more than a little surprised during my last trip to Italy to see espresso “to go”.

The French fell to Starbucks a few years ago and they have never looked back. I have always heard the excuse that Italian coffee culture is so strong that they would never offer coffee “to go” but these new shops are the beginning of the end for that dream.

The flip side of the debate is that coffee is different from espresso, just like linguini is different from spaghetti. I would think the two could coexist.

Proseguendo nel suo breve articolo, Scott segnala inoltre Bianco Latte a Milano in Via Turati 30.

Niente caffè americano qui, ma di nuovo l’idea di consegnare l’espresso in un bicchierino di cartone.

They are trying to offer a slice of American coffee culture to Italians but without serving actual American coffee. It’s a fun idea but the tiny espresso cups only last about one city block before it’s empty.
