The classic Italian coffee maker

Assalamualaikum,


Hai semua! Hari ni saja nak borak-borak sikit. I am at my husband's workplace, accompanying him while he is doing his work. I also did mine just now, but it completed earlier than expected, so here I am, doing what I do best, checking out current updates on blogspot! ;)


Dah berapa malam dah I datang teman Am kat ofis, bringing him dinner from home. Kalau nak tunggu dia balik baru nak makan, nanti lewat pulak. So I decided to bring the foods to him instead! Dia dapat makan awal, I pun dapat jumpa suami awal sikit. hikhik. :p


Tapi I takde la datang melopong tak buat apa-apa. I brought along my laptop, portable wifi and some journals to review. Dapat jugak la buat benda berfaedah dalam dua tiga jam. Kalau duduk dekat rumah pukul 8.30pm I dah lalok. Tapi bila dekat sini, elok pulak sampai tengah malam pun cerah mata lagi.


Ohh, I am soo in loveeeee with the coffee machine they provide here. Ada sebijik espresso machine yang kacak bergaya kat dalam office ni tau, so tiap-tiap kali datang pun I mesti akan buat satu mug! Tapi amount of coffee sikit je la (40ml per shot) yang selebihnya susu aje. hihi. Omg, I miss my all time favourite, Mocha (and their cool baristas :p) from Rush Coffee in my university back in Wollongong.


Lebih kurang macam ni la rupa dia, minus the milk frother  and button pun lain sikit.
Handsome kan????? (^_^)


Hmm, come to think of it, I was not a coffee person when I was younger. Minum kopi pun tak penah masa kecik-kecik dulu. However after a few years of living in Australia, I got influenced by their coffee culture, and I started to embrace the nice aroma of the black bean more wholeheartedly now. Tapi tak pro la macam coffee lover yang lain sampai bau pun dah tau jenis kopi apa. Takat minum sikit-sikit tu boleh la. :)


So, masa dekat Rome baru-baru ni, tuan rumah bed & breakfast yang kitorang duduk tu introduced another type of coffee maker (very famous among the Italian) or they call it coffee pot or moka coffee, very easy to use, produces a full-bodied coffee and also rich in aroma. And we instantly fall in love with it!! Serious senang gila nak guna, and rasa pun sedapppp sama macam guna coffee machine. So we bought one! :)


Bialetti Moka Espresso. Sounds like Mocha coffee but not to taste alike. :)
The little aluminium stove top coffee maker that you may find in almost 90%  Italian homes.

Balik nanti boleh la nak feeling-feeling jadi Italian wife serves husband dengan nicely brewed Italian coffee.
Ceittt poodahhh!! 
Mata sepet hidung penyek ada hati nak mengaku Italian. 
kehkehkeh. :p
