As befits a "real" coffee, so is the reason man with Thonet chairs (ie chairs, these classic coffee house) and this little marble tables is provided.
The waiter is here - as befits a "real" coffee is - another "Waiter."
The coffeehouse is an institution. And "Waiter" seems to have always been part of it. And "Waiter" is shown - as is usual for coffee houses - as a little grumpy. No, not bad not unfriendly, but ... well, how shall I describe it? I want it - without kicking someone too close - really refer to sometimes as "endearingly grumpy." Anyone who has experienced it before, who knows what I mean.
I like it and I'm longing for a return visit ...
