I came here prepared to hate Starbucks’ new Milan store. After all, anyone who has lived in Italy for any length of time quickly learns that this country’s coffee culture is every bit as important as its art and historical offerings.
Just what’s so special about it is hard to define. Maybe it’s something as simple as the porcelain cups that are never too cold or too hot. Maybe it is the way it is served, with patrons standing up at the bar for a quick hit of caffeine. Or maybe it is more complex, like the intimate relationship one develops with a favorite barista who knows your name and somehow makes you feel like he’s made your espresso or cappuccino just slightly better than the guy’s standing next to you.
