I hated coffee most of my life until I gave in to an iced mocha at Stanford in 1994, and then broke down and did cappucchinos (I've been going to Rome for 30 years now), but somehow something so simple and so good almost everywhere in Italy is difficult to find in the US. But it was only about 2 years ago that I discovered the morocchino (after having delighted in the cafe shakerato for a few years before that), and I am addicted to it. Each coffee bar seems to make it a bit different in Rome where I get to try them out summers, but I cannot seem to get it right in my own kitchen. In chicago we discovered an Illy Shop and they have unbelievable specialty coffee drinks, those with chocolate are my weeakness, but then found an Illy Shop in the Stazione Termini at Rome, so close! [When I am in the center of Rome.] Thanks for sharing your story about your coffee weakness. dr bob in philly Ah, the marocchino!

I will try it. Also, I was in Pavia last year and fell in love with that little university town. I'm sad you had to leave it... Mmm – I wonder if I can make the marocchino at home! I will try it.
