Why you should visit Starbucks in Italy.. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-yi10HD-yWLg.html

8:11 It’s very simple, because “latte” is an Italian word and simply means “milk”. Americans have given this term another interpretation (as has also happened with other Italian names or other Italian things) and have made something different. But the name speaks for itself…. if I say latte (milk), every Italian means a glass of milk and not something else. So for example, if I say "acqua” (water), I expect a glass of water and not a glass of wine or something else.

In Naples,in one of the best pastry shops, cappuccino and coffee is 3,10 al banco.

@drumminsooz 23 дня назад

I love your Italy videos! ☕️❤️ Thank you for these amazing tips!! My husband and I are visiting Italy in March 2025 because my brother is getting married in the province of Pisa! However, I will be visiting Starbucks because I collect the mugs everywhere we travel together 🇮🇹 😂

@MrKastro65 3 дня назад

hi i want or have to say that you are the best in every way to explain everything about italy and when i say everything i mean everything because i know a little about everything what you explain helps people to understand and know you are the best greetings from a Albanian

Bar San Calisto in Trastavere Rome. We paid $3.80 for two Cappuccino’s and crème cornetto and we sat outside. Incredibly inexpensive compared to most places. We absolutely loved people watching while having breakfast in Italy.

@GregorBrown 10 месяцев назад

That's an amazing experience that you can still enjoy in Italy

@aris1956 20 дней назад

When you are in Italy anyway it is better to say it in an original way (Cappuccini, the plural form), as he says here in the video (1:53). Like 1 Espresso and 2 Espressi. ;)

@JasonGabler День назад

"In Italy, 'bar' means coffee" ... which is why "barista" doesn't mean "bartender". 🙃 As an aside, one of my favorite light and refreshing Italian breakfasts (though it's not a breakfast-only dish) is prosciutto e melone.

@mediumrick7667 10 месяцев назад

Haha. Your vids are getting better and better. Keep it up, Gregor. 😎

@GregorBrown 10 месяцев назад

@sapinta 2 месяца назад

cornetto is just the one with the horns (corno means horn in italian). The other pastries have their own name (fagottino, treccia, bomba, ciambella, danese, etc.), unless you're in Milan where they say brioche for everything (except actual brioches, which are french pastries that taste nothing like a cornetto)

@johnwanamaker84 10 месяцев назад

I'm not awake until I have two cups of coffee. When I was in the USAF, I had a seargent who would make a pot of coffee than put fresh coffee grounds in the coffee maker and put the fresh coffee back into the coffee maker. You needed a tablespoon of sugar to drink it. On the rare occasion, he would do tripled brewed coffee. The spoon would stand straight up in the cup and then dissolve. We were flying high on caffeine.

@johnwanamaker84 10 месяцев назад

My breakfast consisted of two cups of twice brewed coffee, a foil pack of Poptarts, a can of Coke, and a Hershey chocolate bar.

@GregorBrown 10 месяцев назад

That is one of the thickest and probably the most concentrated coffees I've ever heard of and I'm glad you survived those days of drinking coffee and having the sugar fuel breakfast😂😂☕☕

@user-fj7nd2lo1l 14 дней назад

Yes guys, of course, as he said you can find Tea, or maybe herbal/fruit infusion...whatever fruit juice...maybe hot chocolate...orzo, sometimes you can have a fresh milkshake what else? 🤔 And it's cheap, yes. I guess 25€ 😱 is due to the special pastry place, maybe in the very center of the city. Actually, at least in Rome, if you are not in the center, you don't even pay to sit in a bar

@GregorBrown 13 дней назад

Yes, it's because it's an historic famous place in the city center.

@tomwillis3089 10 дней назад

The croissant's origins are widely accepted to be in Austria (not France). it is a descendant of the kipferl, a crescent-shaped pastry that dates back to at least the 13th century 🤓 Can you get porridge in Italy?

@GregorBrown 10 дней назад

No porridge. 😭

@PaulFromCHGO 10 месяцев назад

At the risk of being strung up and my body beaten like Mussolini, what if you are not a coffee person (more like Tea or Chai or Hot Cocoa or even Juice)? Are there good go-to-places for that or would you just be run out of town?

@GregorBrown 10 месяцев назад

He was shot dead first but we won't subject you to the same process 😂😂😂you can happily find tea and as I showed in the video fresh orange juice and is cheap

@PaulFromCHGO 10 месяцев назад

@@GregorBrown hah good point, I almost forgot about being shot as well! Anyway, fantastico that I can find alternatives to drink.

thanks Paul. Yeah, you'll still love Italy, plenty to eat and see.

@reneeburich9497 10 месяцев назад

Breakfast for me includes coffee with crème (would that be a caffè con latte?) and usually a buttered, toasted piece of toast or bagel or English muffin. And then maybe a pastry.

@GregorBrown 10 месяцев назад

That's a café macchiato, i think

@reneeburich9497 10 месяцев назад

@@GregorBrown thank you! Good to know.

@sylvianpententner3051 Месяц назад

Damn I can't believe the difference in price to sit down, thanks for the heads up! I think if I found out I was paying 20 euro over the odds just to sit at the table I'd go through the roof😂

@sleshflex4170 29 дней назад

Is not always like that, but if you go in one of the oldest pastry shop in florence that is there since 1733......yeah you will pay a bit.

@aris1956 20 дней назад

@@sleshflex4170 Not to mention if you find yourself in Piazza San Marco, in Venezia, sitting at a table outside the bar ! The more exclusive the places and even the locales, the more you pay if you sit at the table.

Does anyone sell eggs in Italy for breakfast. Hate eating sugary crud first thing in the morning.

@user-fj7nd2lo1l 13 дней назад

Mmh🤔 it will be probably difficult to find eggs at breakfast time (but in the hotel, of course). If you are not a sweet person in the morning 😬 you can have a slice of pizza, or step in a bakery, get a Panino (sandwich) with cheese or prosciutto....

25 euro way expensive for breakfast.

I agree, but consider this is more of a fancy place and for the less expensive option. You don't sit down at the table and just stand at the bar

@aris1956 20 дней назад

Simply have breakfast at the bar, without sitting at the table, especially in more exclusive places, more famous places. 🤷🏻‍♂️

Opzione numero 2 : cercare un bar non esclusivo, ti siedi al tavolo, ordini e farai una colazione buonissima spendendo tanto meno. Da noi i bar abbondano e come si sa il lusso si paga. Grazie a Dio in Italia abbiamo locali per tutte le tasche
