Un café


Je vais prendre un café, s'il vous plaît.
Et, pour toi?
Tu en veux?


I do not drink so much coffee at home but it just seems so perfect in Paris, in a café.


I really do need to buy some of these cups.

I love coffee, and find myself craving an afternoon cup, even in summer. I'm particular about the drinking vessels. They must be glass, not ceramic, but the one in your photo is so....French! love it!

It's me said...

This is Belgium said...

I admit, am addicted to coffee in a cup like this, would make a detour for it

Gattina said...

Evidemment je veux !

I also drink a lot of coffee, real good black one with a little sugar, not "eau de vaisselle" !

Rob-bear said...

Bear prefers tea, green tea, with just a bit of honey. But the Parisian coffee looks delightful!

Ou sont les croissants? Et des fruits (peru-être les pommes, ou les poires)? Et du fromage?

Shell Sherree said...

Oui, j'en veux, merci! Usually a latte in the morning, and if the day or evening is growing long, a rare shot of espresso. The teensy cups and saucers are so cute! {Dare I say meep-like?}

Cildemer said...

Oh oui! Je prendrais bien un petit café avec toi!
Ta photo est une belle invitation à un moment de plaisir partagé sur une terrasse parisienne!

Big bisous et belle fin de semaine, Genie****

oo coffee, never been a huge fan - but I do appreciate a cup once in 3 months. lol.

Being distinctly British, I do love a cup of tea (drinking one right now-4th cup today and it's only just 1pm.)

Looks like strong coffee, good thing it only comes in a small cup.

Virginia said...

Where can we order? I also want the dark blue ones that I've featured. I brought the pain au chocolat from my blog. Un café svp.

I'm not a big coffee drinker, but since I just got up and it is chilly and gray, I surely could use a cup like you've shown us here! Love it! Have a great weekend, Genie!

Even though the coffee isn't always very good, the ambiance makes up for it and it all becomes magical.

Un cup de cafe, sil vous plait!!! Cafe in Europe is always so much better!!! I had my first Cafe au Lait in Florence Italy many moons ago!!!

Unknown said...

I leave for Paris in a week and am getting VERY excited!I am definitely joining your site for inspiration! Unfortunately I am not a coffee drinker, but I can certainly handle a chocolat chaud!

Bill Dixon said...

Yes, I'd like some also. Would you please?

Abby said...

That's a really nice cup! I don't drink coffee much, but I think I would.

beau gosse said...

Oh how wonderful, Genie! I always get a noisette with an extra pitcher of heated milk, a chocolate and a biscuit at my favourite cafés in The Marais et Arts et Métiers avec mes amis! @ Ninny: I also use the clear glass cups of this size that snap into the chrome holders!

Louis la Vache said...

Mikki said...

I have a set of these exact cups with their saucers and they're lovely. So classy :)

All you need is an espresso or two. Then its time for red wine.
