They also have the best gelato I have had to date here in Milan.

Just like you and most others, I fell in love with it and had to have had at least seven to 10 of them every day until it gave me the runs! I miss having them though, I wish I could get a good recipe so I could try it myself. That and Thai Iced Tea. I had my first Marocchino at a Hotel Bar right outside Sigonella.

"Marocchino" means "moroccan" period, just like a "tunisino" is a guy from Tunisia regardless of the height :) Oh, no, Marocchino doesn’t mean “little moroccan”.

I'm from Alessandria, the city where Marocchino has been invented, the names it's because of the colour, similar to the one used for the hats (just like Davide said). remember that Alessandria is the city of Borsalino! I laughted for your adventure in Puglia, my family used to go every year in Puglia for vacation, marocchino (or simply "marocco" as we say) has become popular just in the last ten years, but before, no one out of Alessandria knew it... Well I remember my mother terrorizing all the bartenders of puglia asking for a marocchino... Imagine, just like entering in a bar in london asking for a Canadian! probably espressino has been developped after this crazy Alessandrina asking for someting that sounded like a whole county... ahaha!! by the way, This morning we had a discussion with a fellow from Turin that said that they like it with chocolate cream in it, because the have it like a variation of the Bicerin.... No,no. marocchino it's like Alessandria, it has no frills, just coffe milk and if you like it, just a touch of cocoa powder. OOOh, can I say something about it?
