What's this? Europeans were drinking real coffee in Viennese
coffeehouses back when people in Seattle were cooking Maxwell House in
electric percolators.

I remember my first trip to Vienna, drinking the coffee. I swore never
to drink North American coffee again. Well, I must say, people here
are finally learning what coffee is supposed to taste like, and that
you really do need a big wall-mounted Italian-made coffee machine to
get a decent cup.
