The Pending Coffee

Did you know 10th of december is the “Caffé sospeso” International day?

Unless if you’re not from that part of the world, it’s unlikely You’ve ever heard of “caffé sospeso”, which translated sounds more or less like “pending coffee”.

In Naples, after World War II, a beautiful custom was born: people on occasion (especially when in a good mood, or when they had a happy event) used to leave the barista the money for an extra espresso, buying it for one of those customers who were going through a bad economic situation.
A beautiful act of charity: giving people a cheer-up warm coffee

Nowadays, it seems this habit isn’t that common anymore. But we can always ask the barista, you never know…

PS: before I forget, Inox Bim has a new wonderful range of Bar counters
