Cheese and Coffee

To follow up on a few earlier posts, here are 2 new pictures.

First, if anyone wasn't convinced that the Parmesan cheese from our landlords was big, check out the picture we took once we opened it:



Also, about the size of the coffee: sometimes in the afternoons we have been going to a cafe that has wireless to do some work. It is called Lino's coffee and has a modern, trendy feel to it. In addition to the traditional coffee options they have a big list of other choices with coffees with different flavors and whipped cream, one of them being the "Maximug," which seems to me like a caffe latte with a flavor of your choice.



The novelty is that for Italian coffee this is a huge mug, maybe 10 or 12 FO, which I think is about the size of a Starbucks tall. We ordered Maximugs one day for a photo opp, but didn't feel so good after drinking them. It is really hard to beat an afternoon caffe macchiato! It's also hard to beat our favorite bar, Bar Gnocla. Check out the earlier post called "Pasadena vs. Parma Coffee Culture" for a few other new pictures.
