Un caffé per favore! - #10 of 30

In Italy coffee as many of you know is very strong. Being from Argebtina I am used to espressos as that is what we usually have but Italy takes it to the next level in being strong. The little espresso cups are  barely half-full as it is so strong.  Most of the time I would ask them for some extra hot water or an Americano which already comes with the extra water. 

"Un Caffé per favore"  is how you order coffee in Italy :) and the plate is hand made as I ran out of patience today to make it work. :) First time I tried painting metal, could be fun to do more.

En Italia, como alguno de uds. sabrán, el café es muy fuerte. Siendo de Argentina, estoy acostumbrada al los expresos ya que eso es lo que tomamos allá, pero Italia lleva al café fuerte al próximo nivel!  Las tacitas de expreso están apenas a la mitad de tan fuerte que es. La mayoría del tiempo yo pedía un poco de agua caliente extra, o un café americano que ya viene con agua de más.

"Un caffé per favore" es como se pide un café en Italia y el plato es echo a Mano ya que no Tenía paciencia hoy para arreglarlo. :) La primera vez que pinto metal, puréed set interesante pintar mas.
