- Once you’ve made the perfect cup, you’ll need to put the crowning glory on top: luscious milk foam.

- The perfect coffee however, is nothing without the perfect snack pairing and when you’re at home you have the added bonus of indulging in something more satisfying than the standard amoretti biscuit in the plastic wrapper! Perfect for dunking, traditional almond biscotti is a wonderful option. North Americans love their doughnuts, and so do we, but to increase the chic-factor, try bite-sized beignets dusted with confectioner’s sugar. Though scones might be considered more appropriate for high tea, they also are wonderful additions to a coffee date.
- Finally, when you’ve got the gear and the goodies, you’ll need to create a great kitchen café vibe with the right décor. If your style is more Portland than Paris, include a rustic dining table with bench seating, large earthenware mugs and to top it all off pipe in music by indie artists like Bright Eyes, Sufran Stevens and Caribou. When you want create an exotic ambiance, be sure to outfit your kitchen with natural materials like terra cotta floor tiles, as well as boldly coloured window treatments and antique Turkish-style rugs. Then serve your coffee in delicate demitasse cups and set your table with a bowl of pink roses. And when all things are set, take your frappe and enjoy your much-deserved break!
